STATEMENT

The club would like to confirm that on Monday, we were informed by Track & Trace that a Musselburgh Athletic player who played in Saturdays match had tested positive for Covid19, all players and coaching staff were therefore advised to self-isolate for a period of 10 days until 4th January.

Subsequently on Wednesday, one of our players also tested positive for Covid19. It is unknown at this stage whether the player concerned contracted the virus on the pitch or elsewhere.

Our primary concern is with the welfare of the players and coaching staff, and all continue to self-isolate.

We have reviewed the events of Saturday and are satisfied that club personnel followed all Covid protocols required by Musselburgh, East of Scotland League and the SFA.

All training has been cancelled and we do not have a match scheduled this coming weekend. This does not effect any other team apart from the Seniors.
