But we have more than our share of dickheads who cannot do anything responsible. After nearly 10 months they still don't get it

My point was that it doesn't matter how the media report, everyone knows what they need to do.

So where did the NW rise come from today?

Merseyside had some record numbers.

Liverpool at 907 (up from 756) - with a Pop Score rise of 182 - a record for the city. Compared with Manchester that is more than double the number of cases and obliterates Manchester's Pop Score rise of 71. So in effect makes it about 3 times as bad.

The only time Manchester got near that kind of daily case number was when all the students were testing positive in September.

Wirral at 562 another record (up from 524) and way over Manchester's numbers too. With a Pop score rise of 174. Also a record here and 103 HIGHER than Manchester. That is MORE cases than Manchester has ever had in the past few months.

Warrington too well up to a new record of 311 (up from 241) with a Pop Score rise of 148,

These Pop rises are the indicator as they smooth out population numbers and nowhere in GM has come close to them in this NW uptick. Indeed there have been hardly any rises above 100 in GM.

Quelle surprise.

The commentators don’t help with regards the game too, finding great hilarity in the cameras highlighting how many people are watching the game from behind the fences, even showing a few women drinking champers - “the romance of the cup”....

The BBC have been thick as fuck right back since March.

They’ve been interviewing people standing two metres away but with their long furry mic less than a foot away from them or even through their windows! To cheer people up last Summer they showed videos of people dancing in groups, playing catch across balconies, pouring wine from a flat window to someone below, people hugging coming out of care homes... all with the comments “isn’t it brilliant to see things like that?”

I know it’s a hybrid between what should be in the football thread, and what’s in here, but fuck me someone should have a word with these pair of twats doing the commentary, think one is Dion Dublin maybe. Chortling away as the camera pans around showing the people watching the game from behind the fence, even laughing out loud at one muppet who has brought a cardboard cutout of Klipperty with him. Not once have they condoned the fact that no one whatsoever should be there watching. Lunacy.

Nearly 1% of the UK population were tested today. That is a phenomenal number
Numbers down by around 10k. Deaths lag of course but cases don't. Promising news.

testing, vaccines and repeating the messages to keep distance. Only way out of this.

Large numbers of people sat behind the goal too. Doubt they’d have got away with this back in April.

They must have about 500 stewards round the pitch too. Outrageous.

Is that with a PCR test or a lateral flow test?

I overheard a conversation yesterday regarding lateral flow tests that they could return false positives from the use of mouthwash and also advised against testing before 10am as people can have like a 'acetone breath' that also gives false positives.

Maybe it's another case false positives.

PCR, They get tested every week. Though she didn’t say when they got vaccinated, my daughter got vaccinated the week before Christmas.

Police arrested a 19 year old in Bristol for arranging an outdoor music party where 40 plus people were attending.

We will never beat this virus until these Fuckwits are taken out of society

My missus just seen it on TV and asked had they let fans back inside the ground now? - how can all those people be allowed inside that small ground???
