Phenomenal vindication of the rebrand, and the whole approach that the club has taken. Looking at individual match day prices it is a no brainer to buy a season ticket, will be interesting to see what sort of actual match ticket purchases will be 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airdog Posted September 15, 2021 Report Share Posted September 15, 2021 have just read the gate guide for the match against Saracens and they are saying we require a lateral flow test to gain entry so can you please tell me if they are needed for the football, looking on the city website and they dont seem to be .

This is from a different club but it may help... As part of our efforts to prepare fans for potential future entry procedures, on arrival to the stadium fans aged 18 and over may be asked if they have COVID certification. However, under the current guidance, demonstrating COVID certification is not mandatory and it not currently a condition of entry to the stadium. https://www.arsenal.com/tickets/arsenal/2021-Sep-26/tottenham-hotspur From reading this I believe it won't be a problem to go to the Saracens game without taking a test. I don't expect it will be enforced and I am expecting no hassle if I politely tell them that there is no law that requires me to do a test to enter.

airdog Posted September 16, 2021 Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 thanks baba I hope that is the case, I have the paper covid pass which shows I am double jabbed and am happy to show that even though there is no suggestion the government are requireing them but would have a problem proving the flow test as I dont have a mobile phone and I am not the only one .

Am I right in understanding we aren’t so concerned about losing players this season due to them being under contract, but next season is a bit of a cruncher as lots of contracts are up. Pat extending his has to be good news in that respect though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because that journalist is wearing tiger tinted spectacles. Not too concerned about Earl and Malins. We did well when they weren't available. I think the real concern is replacing Siale Piatau and Jon Afoa. Lahiff and Armstrong are nowhere near Afoa/Sinkler standard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
