INB Red Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Sorry. I've tried searching the site but couldn't find an answer. Do we need proof of double vaccination to attend a football match at Ashton Gate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Horse With No Name Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Mate, the whole matchday experience will leave you wondering if the pandemic even happened. Apart from a few hand sanitisers dotted around, nothing has changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be a good idea for the club to hand out face masks on arrival. Might encourage a few more people to wear them, thus giving confidence to anyone who's a bit doubtful.

Why can't people bring their own? If I was attending I'd bring mine. How much are 10,000 face masks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that a fair amount of people think the pandemic is over, seeing them worn less and less now. 10,000 disposable face masks every match can't be too good for the environment!

The point being if someone hasn't got one or forgets theirs the club dishing one out with a City crest on might encourage someone to wear it. I'll be there Saturday but if it's like rent-an-arsehole down threre it may put people off. That will cost them more in the long run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tully Bascomb Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Went to the Villa game and all staff had masks on but I didn't see any fans wearing them in the concourse or stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CliftonCliff Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Despite being a ST holder and double-vaxxed, and after much dithering, I have reluctantly decided to pass on the first game. Still a lot of contradictory data being published and a little too much uncertainty for me. I may be fairly well protected, but at 74 I remain keen to avoid becoming infected. I will be watching this forum with interest, to see what the feedback is like with regard to the behaviour of the majority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFCGav Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Appreciate we didn't need to show a negative test/vaccine passport for Villa, but it doesn't seem City have confirmed this is also the case for Blackpool.

Furious Custard Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 For many younger fans we won't of even had the 2nd dose yet. Mine is 25th Aug. I will be there wearing a mask on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Horse With No Name Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Also, you have to remember that no one knows exactly how long the vaccination lasts for, so those elderly and vulnerable who were the first to be jabbed back in January (was it ? ) may now be susceptible again.

Mr Popodopolous Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Was going to add this to the Covid Sports thread but seems pertinent here too. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2021/08/03/efl-clubs-fear-pingdemic-will-lead-steward-shortages-seasons/ Would need to be voted on in Parliament surely- someone on here who shall remain nameless seems to love the idea of a relatively needless policy like this but anyway... Mentions some kind of link between Vaccine Passports and attendances/capacity allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 I used the villa game as a tester, not one mask in sight on the concourse (apart from the staff). I’m still going to the first game but will be keeping my distance as much as possible, within 20k people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw hand sanitizers in front of stand at Plymouth....I didn't see them used once.... not saying they were not used just if they were then i didn't see it, and I was kind of watching because my son and I had a bet on if anyone would.....(we had our own little pocket bottle) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo88 Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 The only change will be the lack of cash. Every purchase will be contactless, though I’m sure this is not covid related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
