Garland-sweden Posted December 26, 2021 Report Share Posted December 26, 2021 Not covidrelated but remember back in the 80ties. Luton- Southampton put a bet on Southampton, Luton won 7-0 he he. Since then I always says: Southampton is not good away, he he. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is all a bit of a learning curve for me and tbh I have done what I believe to be the right and best thing, although it’s not without flaws….in reply to your questions: When tested positive - told to follow the local restrictions, which in NYC means 10 days immediate self isolation. Although ‘immediate’ isn’t strictly possible in every case e.g. I was in a hotel room which I had to check out of within an hour of getting a positive result! I was responsible for finding alternative accommodation. I didn’t want and could not afford to stay in a hotel (just one room, expensive, no cooking facilities, therefore deliveries or room service the only options, etc.) As you note that did mean putting others at risk as I got from A to B. Although of course I may have, unknowingly, been positive a day or two prior to the test when I was moving freely around. Food is a tough one - I opted for Air B and B so I had a kitchen (of sorts) as I didn’t want / couldn’t afford to have ten days of home deliveries. I therefore opted to visit the supermarket on the way to my accommodation and stocked up on medicine and basic foodstuffs in order to sustain me for the period of self isolation. Sounds grim Jerseybean. At least you appear to be symptom free. My thoughts are with you in your solitary sentence. Merry Christmas 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much sympathy for you, what a miserable way to spend Christmas. Although, you will have a great anecdote from it that you’ll be able to dine out on for years! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pros: prep. time nil, clearing away time nil, cooking time eight minutes, it was hot, a few glasses of cider took the edge off it. Cons: everything else you can possibly think of and much more! 8 minutes to cook, 10 seconds to chuck in the bin! What did it taste like?

YorkshireSection Posted December 26, 2021 Report Share Posted December 26, 2021 20 hours ago, Jerseybean said: Season’s greetings fellow-Reds. The game being off tomorrow is a double-edged sword for me If you read my OP for the Huddersfield match day thread you might recall I was in New York City with my family for a pre-Christmas holiday. Thankfully, my wife and daughters are safely home, however, I tested positive on Wednesday so I’m doing ten days solitary in a really grim Air B and B in Brooklyn. Tomorrow’s game was something to look forward to watching on Robins TV and a good performance/result (however unlikely) would certainly have lifted my spirits . As for the double-edged sword a poor performance/result would have only made a miserable situation even worse! Just for a giggle here’s a picture of my Christmas lunch - drink up thee zider! However you are spending this Christmastime enjoy yourself. Thank you fellow OTIBers for making this forum the remarkable place it is. Where about in Kings County are you JB? My fave of the 5 Boroughs by far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChippenhamRed Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 Brighton game yesterday - moved to 8pm on Boxing Day thanks to Sky, with no trains running. Anyone who’s been to the Amex understands the impact of no trains on the travel infrastructure there. Absolutely ridiculous state of affairs. Fans being treated like shit again. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
