What is?


A completely unnecessary spike in cases which will have big impacts elsewhere. Can’t understand the desire to force everyone together in restaurants when a massive number were able to do a delivery or takeout service that worked fine, certainly can’t understand why the tax payer was paying half of Jeremy Hunt’s £120 pub lunch with pals.

You can’t just lash everyone together at the same time without any consequences. Things like schools  or increased capacity for a working track & trace system could have been prioritised, but Harvester and Wetherspoons got the money. Odd that.

Anyway, the new lockdown and more delays to sporting events like this are the consequence.

Did you go to the ticket office? If so, was anyone answering the phone? I just wanted to check my renewal form had arrived, posted over a week ago. I wasn't comfortable putting the three digit security code down on paper and chucking it in one of those quaint red boxes on the pavement!
I'll keep trying I guess.

Fair play to you then, Hagrid.  It does show incredible loyalty, and I've always been loyal myself, but I've sort of accepted that I'll probably be paying near to £460 this season for iFollow games; after deductions, that can't be too far from the club effectively getting season ticket money from me.

Of course, if fans are allowed back in at some point, iFollow streams may well stop in the UK, so my plan is not 100% perfect.  Its a case of suck it and see.

After reading your post above, I really hope the fans are allowed back in, stuff like this really isn't fair for people like your brother who've had stuff taken from them when it's doubly important to them.

They will have to take notice, BJ marshals will enforce it
£100 BILLION bonus for his mates in charge of the failing testing  in his latest moonshine idea


Oh dont be gormless- how the hell are groups of more than 6 people meeting throughout the UK going to be "policed"?

Marshalls indeed. Are they going to wear a star shaped badge and a Stetson?  The whole thing is ridiculous.

Did the government actually say that crowds were not allowed in from the start of October? The article I read, and I'm not reading much about this anymore, said that they would review the situation but no decision has been made.

I fully expect it to be stopped, and always assumed people buying tickets expected this. Like people booking holidays knew there's a risk of getting stuck or stuck at home quarantining, but it seems everybody just goes along with ignorant bliss thinking "it's ok today, so it will be tomorrow"...

Saw one of the club staff say something on Twitter that if the season doesn't start, season tickets will be refunded.

I'll try dig it out.
