They've got to play sometime

True! We will see Saturday. Sure pep said he is playing the kids so we are probably both wrong

 

[i kne albert davy]

Got ours entry time 3.45 to 4.15 doubtful we'll be out of the pub by then, i'll do my best just won't be good enough. :-)

 

[Corky]

Foxes more or less full strength tonight, will probably be favourites, despite their young centre back having his leg broken by a daft tackle.

Edozie deserves a start. I’d be happy with this line up

 

[lionheart]

I am going into Manchester to watch the game, not been in town for over 12 months......just assuming that pubs will be showing the game? any suggestions?

It will be shown live on ITV Freeview, so maybe stay at home with a bottle of Shiraz.

Following taken from the Wembley Stadium website. Note that the 'proof of full vaccination' option is only available to those from 'Wales/Scotland', a distinct difference from instructions from the club which simply said 'one of the following'!
Proof of a negative 'Lateral Flow Test (LFT), reported and demonstrated via a text message or email from NHS Test and Trace. This can be on your device or a printout. The test needs to be taken within 48 hours of the time the stadium gates open (meaning three hours before match kick-off).
Wales/Scotland only: Or proof of full vaccination - both doses received at least 14 days prior to the match. It must be demonstrated via the Scottish or Welsh vaccination record services.'

At the stadium?

Yep, entry slot for Wembley was Thursday!

Half the top tier yet to go on sale and half of the bottom tier still unsold. Going by that and the fact that almost all the open blocks at the moment have gone (apart from around 800) probably sold about 12,000. Not going to look great in the ground.
Leicester, on their site have opened all blocks, so even if they don't sell out, there will be sprinkling of fans everywhere rather than empty blocks.

Incorrect, Wembley site gives you 2 options "via either the NHS app or proof of a negative LFT taken within 48hrs of doors opening". The only difference is people from Wales or Scotland have to demonstrate their status on the Welsh or Scottish app.

Ah, got you Dowty. Thanks for the clarification though I maintain its unclear and open to misinterpretation.

I don't think there is a Scottish App
It's being developed still
Letter only for now


I think .....

Better that way.
About the only thing the government up here has got right.

 

[tregyblue61]

There's no Welsh app either.

I will do a LFT night before .

I will have to do Covid 19 pass the night before too as it's only valid for 2 days!

Just request a new pass now or tomorrow.
