All fair points, we are talking about a tenner though. I appreciate ticket touting is a dangerous and slippery slope. Conceded.

Quoted from TownSNAFU5
The County analysis is interesting.   Only theory though when the match kicks off.  As Mike Tyson said, everyone has a plan until they get punched on the nose.

County say that we are very efficient at taking and converting chances into goals.  Or just very lucky.  No team can be that lucky.  We have class strikers who score good goals.  Our runs at pace into the box also earn us a well above average number of penalties.

I see Wrexham have a plan to get to the Premier League. They want to dream big.  A Hollywood film would no doubt follow if this was achieved.  After about 11 seasons in NL, they should try smaller steps and just try and get into the EFL.


Ordinarily you would be right but we don't have any strikers for tomorrow's game

I will miss today's game because I have tested positive for Covid. Which considering the precautions I take when I go to football is surprising. On the train I wear a mask, likewise as I come into Blundell Park and go to the toilet I wear a mask. I stand out like a sore thumb with my mask on. During the game I don't wear a mask as we are all facing forward in an outdoor area.

I went to Wealdstone on Tuesday. Again I had a mask on throughout except when  seated. I chose a seat at the back of the stand in front of the walkway so there was no one in front of me. I can't think where else I may have got it. The only other place I went was for my Covid booster on Wednesday. I had been taking a lateral flow test each day since Sunday and were clear until Thursday morning.

It is unlikely I will be back for a long time as my wife is paranoid about Covid. When I came home from a game I had to sleep in the spare room and I assured her the chances of getting Covid were slim. I have been prove wrong.

Sorry to hear this Rob, how are youu feeling in yourself?
Covid is just such a bizarre thing. I've been at school with 8 of the children in my class with covid, I've been to zoos, town at Torquay, local footballl matches every Saturday and Sunday yet I've never tested positive. My friends wife had it, they still shared the same bed.. He never got it. 🤔
Anyway. Hope you recover quickly fella.

Just a little tired at the moment with some aches. More frustration about how I got it. Thanks for the good wishes.

My own personal take on it is whether you wear a mask, or not - follow ‘safe’ procedures or not -,you’re just as susceptible to catching it as anyone else. Think it’s all down to each individuals immune system. Key word is individual - everyone is different. Do hope the fella above is alright, I myself got ‘pinged’ as being in contact with someone who tested positive on 23rd - only place I went is the fanzone and the game. Thankfully all negative but I don’t think it should be seen as a surprise that the risk is there when attending large crowd events. But do you stop living for the fear/risk or carry on as you normally would? It’s not going to stop me going anywhere personally, after all - could get hit by a bus tomorrow for example..but I do also understand the trepidation some feel. A vast majority are living ‘normally’ - ie no masks, distancing - think everyone’s had enough of the restrictions a long time ago, whether that’s right or not - who’s to say - and again degree of sympathy to those who still follow the ‘rules’ and are at risk.

I’m not sure the experts/scientists can conclusively say what’s happening/ or predict - and I can understand the trepidation and concern of inoculations, given there’s no way anyone can say for definite there’s no long term implications. But we’re being told it’s to lessen symptoms and protect NHS, so in that respect you feel duty bound to have them. Again - it’s a personal choice - don’t think there’s a right or wrong in whatever anyone decides.  

Think this thing is a way of life now, it won’t be going anywhere - so it’s up to folk to do what’s best for them, but living in fear of it doesn’t (in my view) seem a nice way of living. Anyway - best wishes to anyone affected be it now, past or in future.

My thoughts are with you mate , I really hope you get a very mild illness and it does not make the leap to your lass, not only for her health  but also for your sanity  because you will probably torture yourself if the wife got it ..... but not as much as the told you so's from the wife will  torture you tho ......anyway best of luck mate
