Darren Ferguson warns teams will get 'destroyed' by COVID-19... as EFL boss Rick Parry rules out circuit breaker to pause season

Peterborough manager Darren Ferguson said teams were going to get ‘destroyed’ by Covid just as the EFL ruled out a circuit breaker to stem the virus.

Ferguson, son of former Manchester United manager Sir Alex, revealed he was missing four players struck down by the illness yesterday.

He said that, unless something is done soon to address to the situation, then football teams could be decimated by the pandemic.
