They said all legal limits would go but clearly that’s not going to be the case despite the fact the numbers are so low. Another shambles in a long line of **** ups. Also rules for going to Wembley are a joke - basically no fun at all. Sit in silence in your mask and don’t move. Headline says 21st June earliest and hopefully close to normal. Can’t read rest for behind a paywall They never ever said legal limits would go, the roadmap said test events will take place to see what is able to be allowed. Scientists said that masks and some kind of distancing may well be needed for a while and more than likely in the Autumn Winter of 2021/22. People who have had the vaccine are dying of Covid still it isn’t a silver bullet. With people now able to mix this is where we see over the next few weeks how many are catching it with vaccines and dying. It takes around 3 to 4 weeks for numbers to come through and with lockdown now loosened this will be the test of how well the vaccines work. Last year it took 3 to 4 months to get numbers low for the summer and that was with no vaccine, lockdowns bring the numbers down due to less mixing. We’ve been locked down for 3 months now and numbers have fallen so hopefully vaccine will keep numbers low. Hopefully all will be ok, also head of the EFL has said passport vaccines/negative test proof could well be the way to get crowds back to a certain level for the 2021/22 season. I want restrictions gone, live in Manchester, seen my family once only in Bristol in the last 13 months (lockdowns and tier system) looking forward to seeing them hopefully next weekend. Was able to see my partner for the first time in 4 months over Easter in her garden. Am happy for restrictions to be lifted slowly so that we don’t have to go back to more lockdowns. Would also mean I don’t have to work endless hours testing and sequencing Covid samples. It is not nice being suited all day for hours on end.

Unfortunately I think serious protests will be needed before we are allowed a proper life again. Restrictions will never be lifted with the scientists not willing to consider anything other the virus - totally ott. More lies will be told no doubt.

BCFC1512 Posted April 10, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 We’ve decided to keep the Wembley tickets, I still think if the test events go well there will be more fans. Remember it’s a minimum of 22k. But I can’t decide what to do with last 16. Hold out and hope they sack Dublin off and give it to Wembley or request refund and be gutted if it’s at Wembley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then not even full crowds from 21st June when we are meant to have 'normal life' (clearly a lie). Real shame - was looking forward to such a good summer last year. This year another dire one. Tbf no one has said “normal life” from 21st June. Full events is pending successful trials Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they didn’t and it would help if you quoted the actual government page rather than a news article. It says they “hope” to remove legal limits, no earlier than 21st June and as I said above, large events are subject to test events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 Bit harsh on Bilbao if the reason is covid. There’s still 50 days to go. 50 days ago we were still clocking over 300 deaths per day. Harsh to make that call now I feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On that evidence definitely, but i guess equally numbers could go the other way.

arrytheb Posted April 23, 2021 Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 I have/had tickets to every game bar R16 so I'm caught between being annoyed and well, just a bit meh about it all. It's been rumoured for a while this would happen so I guess I've gotten used to it. Not going to be the same anyway so don't think I'm particularly fussed.
