Jim Cooper Makes The Difficult Decision To Pause Training In Light Of Current Covid19 Restrictions

To the Committee members and fans of Grays Athletic FC,

I have been in discussion with the chairman and other people this week including managers from other clubs in our league.

I decided on Tuesday morning that we will not continue to train this side of Xmas due to the very high Covid infection rates in Havering, Thurrock and Other London Boroughs.
To add substance to this decision, one of the players has been diagnosed with COVID thus training and playing together would not be right.

We have Xmas coming up, some of us have kids, some will be seeing elderly relatives and I truly do not want any of the players or management staff to catch or god forbid pass Covid onto loved ones.

I will let you all know after Xmas of our plans moving forward post the leagues decision to start the season again (or not).

The lads will keep fit, and will be raring to go when we return.

I wish all of you a very happy Christmas and fingers crossed a better 2021 for all of us.
Stay safe, look after each other.
Coops
