That was one of the issues we had with the original communication, which is why it was delayed.
In the current scenario then only the person named on the ticket will be able to use it. But we've asked for a number of safeguards so that tickets can be safely re-used if the buyer can't attend the game. But for Track-and-Trace purpsoed the club will have to know the details of everyone attending.
When things get back to normal then everything should be as it was, assuming things ever do get back to normal.
Well I'm sorry you think that way but that's the way things are at the moment. If you don't want to go to games under the current rules then don't go. If you do want to go to a game then you'll have to abide by the rules, whether you like it or not. I won't be going as I don't consider it safe enough and don't think it will be until next season. But I have to represent people who will want to go as well as have to consider their safety and that of the people they'll come into contact with.That attitude from the club to junior season ticket holders simply will not wash mate. Unless of course they wish to alienate the future fanbase.
I get the covid restrictions but kids will have season tickets and the club will have no issue in selling them either. They then cant demand a child has a photo ID to use it and if they do, they are being fucking stupid and short sighted.
Its either safe to fill the stadium or it isn't and this smacks of lets try and make at least some money.
You're not seriously comparing a football stadium with an ITU or CCU are you?track and trace ?
i work for the NHS
and my Mrs works on ITU and CCU
its a little kept secret if they had adhered to the rules of track and trace all itu and ccu departments would have had to close while all staff isolated,hence,it didn't happen
dont be daftYou're not seriously comparing a football stadium with an ITU or CCU are you?
So City should say "Oh yeah. Track-and-trace is shit so we won't bother with the official government advice and that of the SGSA. We'll let anyone in and sod the consequences"? Think about what you're saying before spouting a load of crap.dont be daft
but why mention track and trace
if its not adhered to or taken seriously
I am 45 but don't have any photo ID - i don't drive, don't have a passport, i'm not a student, and obvs don't have a buss pass. I don't have photo ID..
Can you pls point out to them many adults don't have ID, and if they provide a bank card or something isn't that enough?
So no passport and had a clean driving licence since 1975 so never needed a plastic one means you are screwed.
that sounds about right for us lot who've been going for ever ,and the very minimum for people scared and worried and going backI was hoping for something like pay £1 & keep your seat in your name for 21/22, can't see a full take up in the current situation with the older fanbase, as it is only a % are going to be able to go anyway for probably most of the season.
Ok,you're right and City too along with all other sporting venues and basically everything involving people mixing,i know they have to accept government " guidelines ",pity the NHS and broken unions didn't accept track and trace for its staff at the sharp end these last months.So City should say "Oh yeah. Track-and-trace is shit so we won't bother with the official government advice and that of the SGSA. We'll let anyone in and sod the consequences"? Think about what you're saying before spouting a load of crap.
Personally I'd prefer they weren't opening grounds at all for the coming season but if they're being allowed to do so then they have to do things properly.
You can get a nationally accredited one for £15. People just want something to moan about. If the club put pictures on seasoncards, someone would moan about human rights.its the sake of a few quid to get a few printed off from a photo booth. Price of a pint.

Do you have any insight into club thinking about how we will get back into stadia? I saw something yesterday re Rugby union about having covid passports to prove that you are covid free. Is City Matters sitting at all just now?That was one of the issues we had with the original communication, which is why it was delayed.

cos they'v been using their points for away games ? for years ?Think there's quite a few out there who go on tickets in other peoples names (dead relatives etc.) because they've been told that they cannot change the name on the card/they lose the seasoncard and they have to join the back of the queue for season tickets. Hopefully the club will rethink this before they bring these new measures in.
