Three games were postponed in December because of Covid-19.
The meeting between managers and the league to discuss issues around the Covid-19 epidemic was like talking to a brick wall, according to Spurs boss Antonio Conte.
Three games on December 26th have been postponed, taking the total to 13, while players and club staff returned a record 90 positive tests last week.
The meeting was a waste of time according to the man.
The Italian said that he didn't want to go into it because it was like talking to a wall.
The Premier League declined to comment and it has been told that Spurs boss Antonio Conte did not contribute to any discussions within the meeting.
The game is going ahead.
On Thursday, the Boxing Day fixture between Wolves and Burnley was called off because of the coronaviruses.
Spurs have been hit hard by the virus, with two league games postponed and their final Europa Conference League game forfeited after they were unable to play.
The Man City boss is on a potential strike.
"If I had to be honest, it was a meeting that we tried to speak and some coaches tried to speak to ask about solutions but I think everything was decided," said Conte.
"Because when you have a wall in front of you, you can speak and ask what you want, but every decision was taken."
At Monday's meeting, clubs were told that if they have 13 fit players, plus a goalkeeper, they should fulfill their games.
Dean Smith said that they had missed the boat in terms of decision making when they went into the meeting yesterday.
The season was decided by the league and we have to fulfill the rest of the schedule now.
Jordan Henderson, a player for the England andLiverpool teams, told the BBC that he was concerned that nobody takes player welfare seriously.
The possibility of players going on strike was raised by the Manchester City manager.
He thinks that a strike is the only way to get the authorities to listen.
There are new covid cases at Norwich.
Smith said on Friday that it was "lunacy" that his side were having to play two games in 48 hours.
The Canaries, who are bottom of the table and three points from safety, will play away at Crystal Palace on Tuesday.
Smith said that the virus had new cases and that the team had not played in a while.
"We don't know how many will miss Boxing Day," he said.
There needs to be a question about the integrity of the competition when teams are playing weakened teams against each other.
He said he didn't think you could back a players' strike. We have to follow the guidelines of the league.
