Thanks, I was thinking the same but I have cup scheme points from June 2020.

Seems strange. Maybe people were cancelling the cup schemes and not losing the poinsts.

That's exactly what it was. You could join, instantly get the points and cancel your direct debit the next day under the old rules.

I'd have thought it was pretty simple - if you were on the CL scheme for the 2019/20 season before the pandemic curtailed our attendance at football matches then the club will surely count that as being a current member of the CL scheme for when they announce the selling criteria for CL Final tickets.

So does that mean it can be over 72 hours as long as it’s on the third day prior to departure? E.g test Tuesday for a flight on the Wednesday? The government rules are vague in my opinion
Imagine if we score. Would be like the scene from only fools and horses when they are sat in the car outside the auction house.
Maybe it’s me, this is what’s on the website. What’s vague about it? They even give an example.
Take a coronavirus test before you travel to England
You must have proof of a negative coronavirus (COVID-19) test to travel to England.You must take a test even if:
- you’ve been vaccinated
- you’re traveling from a country or territory on the green list
- you’re a UK citizen
For example, if you travel directly to England on Friday, you must take the test on the Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday.

So if you are doing Friday to Sunday, you can do the test on the Thursday before you leave, saving the hassle of having to do anything in Portugal?!
I see your point....but I wouldn’t be surprised if some do-gooder at the airport insist it has to be strictly within 72 hours and not ‘during the past 3 days’ (in which case a few hours more than 72 hours may be acceptable)
I leave at 6am Friday and return Mon at 4pm anyway so unless I have a test in the early hours of Friday morning the timing just won’t work unfortunately

If its within 72 hours of you taking the test
eg Take the test 1pm Thursday, fly home Sunday before 1pm.
Exactly, seems to be the case
Christ. It’s not 72 hours. It’s just in the three days prior. I feel I MAY have posted this before (like further up this actual page)

I believe the delay is with UEFA not City. Must be a nightmare for the club dealing with them and possibly a Portuguese Gov that is under public pressure.

[Withdrawn] Travel to England from another country – COVID-19 rules
Check if there are any COVID-19 rules in place for travel to England from abroad.
the example on the link shows it can be more than 72 hours. It’s government guidance, I don’t think airport staff will be pedantic but point them to that if they are.
feel for you mate having to repeat yourself mate :-)

Yeah, @Prestwich_Blue said last night that UEFA were still in discussions with the Portuguese govt - presumably about getting the bubble idea sacked off - and those discussions were understandably delicate. I'm guessing this was communicated to him by the club through City Matters.
It’s so important that people know the rules. Contradictory information could easily mean people are refused flights or sent home etc. Several were refused boarding at East Midlands yesterday[Withdrawn] Travel to England from another country – COVID-19 rules
