I was going to say you should have waited until the game day of some hours before the game kicks off before using your freebet as you'd lose the freebet should the game gets postponed, but my fear has happened as I just saw that the match between Everton and Burnley have also been postponed. [...] I probably wouldn't have fancy history in this case, since Everton have been literally shit themselves lately. I would have gone for a draw, perhaps scoreless one for that matter.
I'm just lucky ... this is the second week in a row that I place a bet and get canceled. The fact is that I saw a news feed from December 23, which stated that UEFA had refused Everton this request, so I made up my mind ... and after I saw your post, completely different information appeared in the news feed. The only thing I do not understand is how UEFA makes such decisions
(remotely?), because apparently during the meeting, Everton was made clear that there would be no cancellation.
Damn icopress, looks like you already wasted your freebet. We should all have been like Welsh, waiting for today at least to place our bets (I don't know why I have to put freebets down as soon as I see them appear, some kind of compulsion). [..] Also, Everton actually got a successful request for postponement due to injury rather than Covid, or at least, it was a case of both (as even with Covid they were okay to play until training injury left them with only 9 players).
In addition to seeing the affirmative statement from UEFA, I also looked through the list of involved players in the FPL transfers section
(I'm not sure where the information comes from, but before it was always up to date). So literally two days ago, almost the entire Everton squad was healthy and without injuries ...
