Now more than ever it's important for people to respect others young and old to protect them from coronavirus. With this in mind surely the mass groups of people that smoke in the toilets around the ground will stop doing so to protect other people. I am worried that maybe they won't and people will be faced with the same cloud of smoke when entering and breathing other peoples smoke in a confined area. If people do continue to smoke in the toilets then they should be reported and thrown out....what is the general feeling about this?

Totally agree with you. Smoking in public enclosed spaces is socially unacceptable. Had to put up with this at Wembley during half time, and although wearing a mask I avoided the majority of passive smoke, my clothes still smelt vile afterwards.
 
I don't smoke and it's grim when you walk in an away end toilets and your met with a cloud of smoke, but what does smoking in the toilets have to do with Corona Virus.
 
I smoke like a chimney but don't smoke in public places, if you can't go a couple of hours without a cig you need to quit or not go to the matches or any other venue that requires you not to smoke.

At home I have a designated smoking spot in the kitchen near an extractor fan (Haven't gone as far as getting a smoking jacket yet though) what annoys me is that before we have visitors I warn them that I smoke and all have been fine, the kitchen is a fair distance from the lounge.

There was one noticeable exception when a relative was popping round and asked if I not smoke at all, not even in the garden because of the health of her and her child. The simple way around that was to ask her not to bother coming round, caused a fuss at the time but I wont have people telling me what to do in my own house.

Worst thing is that she smoked weed, she explained that it wasn't real smoking.
 
I'm pretty certain that the law doesn't accommodate the concept of an indoor and enclosed designated smoking area. It would have to be open to the elements to a certain degree. One way round it is to permit smoking on the spirals going up to levels two and three but then you're going to upset the non-smokers who have to use them and the smokers in level one who don't have access. I'm guessing here but it's possible that Premier League regulations may totally ban smoking within stadiums anyway even if there's a legal loophole that would theoretically allow it.
As has been suggested, it's poor form if a smoker can't do without for a couple of hours. I quit about five years ago and always managed that fine - though long haul flights (remember those) were a total nightmare!
I am sure I read somewhere that it is a City of Manchester bye law about smoking on the Etihad Campus and other such areas.

Breathing in a gob full of smoke that has come out of someones gob? Anyone could catch it.
