Return of Supporters

Disgraceful that Liverpool and Everton can have fans in.
Especially the way Liverpool fans behaved in the summer. Matt Hancock seems to think that they deserve special treatment because they have been so good, prick

Been thinking about this recently. Genuinely can’t see a full stadium of fans happening before 2022

Most people won't see a vaccine well into next season - just do one of them vaccine date predictors to see where you might be in the queue. But there will come a point where the government throw the doors open, once enough vulnerable are done and bed space in hospitals is low. Late 2021 before the winter NHS pressures maybe?

From that point forward it'll be individual choice as to whether you take a risk, based on personal risk factors and whether you want to attend pending a vaccine but a (hopefully) far lower rate of infection.
 
It doesn't matter. Some things are bigger and if we can start getting fans in slowly I don't really care that it's in Scouseland. It's a sign that things, hopefully, are getting there...

Was driving round m60 tonight and on impulse decided to cut inside down Oldham road and then past the etihad. As I drove past all I could think was how beautiful it looked.
Boy, do I miss that place.
Then a left just so I could go past the Grove pub.
Back on the M60 at Ashton I told my wife it was a short cut.
She just looked at me and smiled.
She knew.

I’ve been thinking about this.
I don’t like the fact that they get an advantage from this but it’s a stepping stone to getting back to some kind of normality so I’m going with the bigger picture
 
Crowd roared the murdering twats to a point today. Suspect they will be going into tier 3 soon so their advantage will have gone. It will be next season before we are back at the Etihad.

On the contrary - so glad they were there to see this “world class” side (who according to spitter have already won the league) DROP points at klanfield.
 
I went with the misses to get tested at Aintree yesterday (I’ve been working over Xmas in London and Leeds) she needs the Test because she’s going to the City match tonight (she’s an Evertonian) so they need testing before they go to the match and get there for 18:15 tonight and show proof of negative test and ID. No food and drink on sale. Just seems too much hassle to me.

Yeah, don't think I could be arsed going through that just to watch a game in a virtually empty stadium.
 
Madness to even think of opening up stadiums. You aren’t allowed to sit in a socially distanced restaurant but you’re allowing a few thousand people to attend the same event.

And I don’t think it’s an issue per se in the stadium but don’t tell me people won’t at some point be bunched together ie when they travel, or getting in through security or getting a “takeaway pint” from a pub trying to make a buck.

Insanity is the only word for that but then I have supported City for 50 years so maybe you get complacent after a while.
 
No chance of supporters for a year. Letting 2000 in was a joke where they did. The government only cares about money so the fact that football generates money..... Funny that Dorset was in tier one where the Eton twats live
 
I don't think fans should be in the stadiums for several reasons: it's unfair on teams who can't have fans in the stadium and it changes the rules throughout the season.

But the single most important rule is very simple: it sends a really, really bad signal that life is somehow on track to get back to normal. When someone is allowed to have family over for Christmas, then potentially can sit in a football stadium it's a big hint for them to "get back to normal". It just shouldn't be happening, full stop.

I genuinely can't understand why anyone would want to go for a medical test, wait for the result, then go to a a stadium with no food or drink in or around it. Then sitting in the open air, with a mask on, watching a game where there's a possibility you could catch corona (I know, it's small but still).

Maybe I'm not as big a fan as anyone else!

Eton is in Berkshire mate

Not to put words in his mouth, but I got the impression that he meant that people who went to Eton are more likely to come from or live in Dorset, not that Eton is actually in Dorset. Not sure what he is basing that perception on, perhaps on it being a West Country shire county and the fact that Oliver Letwin (former MP for west Dorset) went to Eton.
