Absolutely no reason why there shouldn't be a significant number of fans at stadiums though. Your man Pennington said this weekend that outdoor transmission is 20 times less likely than indoors. Having a few hundred people inside the supermarket is alright but not outdoors at sport It's almost like buying food is essential for human life, and going to the football isn't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiping down toilets after each use etc. It was a totally pointless exercise, as was proven by the inability to scale it, or any subsequent 'test' event, up. Yip, my mate was one of them! A steward at each toilet entry/exit. One at the top and bottom of each set of stairs. Fcking pathetic and the death knell of sports if it's this sanitised, molly coddled pish Edited February 22, 2021 by Thereisalight.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low risk outdoors activities that boost people's health should be open/allowed well before any non-essential high risk activity indoors that geniunely does have an effect on the R0 value, but the politicians are listening to curtain twitching scum that would be moaning about how folk are out playin fitba while they cannae go for a pint. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This trade off nonsense needs to be binned asap It's not that one can be done safely and one can't. Nothing is without risk. But the level of risk in going to get food is worth it, because the alternative is, you know, dying. The level of risk in going to the football isn't worth it because the alternative is just not going to the football. This drivel is up there with the Facebook Mummies moaning last year they could go to the supermarket but couldn't get their hair done. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Johnson has started his speech in Parliament by saying there is no credible route to a zero covid Britain. He's then ruined it by saying the 21st of June is the date the government hopes to remove all restrictions, which we all know won't happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joking aside, if cinemas and bingo halls open before stadiums then that tells you all you need to know. I still cringe at the test event at Murrayfield. About 500 fans in a stadium of that size. What the fck did that show I didn't pay much attention to the rugby test events, but was it not about 300 people in a small section of the stadium? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
