O/T:- Vaccines: Pro/Anti & Conspiracy Theories [Originally Covid Pass and Meadow Ln.]

[Elite_Pie]

So long as people comply it will continue and will only get worse.

Well, you need no better example of people not complying with it than those who set the rules!

BBC News says:
This will include.......unseated outdoor venues with more than 5,000 people and any venue with more than 10,000 people.

Seeing as ours are seated and (usually) under 10,000, it shouldn't affect us but the admin will be a nightmare so they'll probably do it based on capacity.

Had my vaccines so all good.... Can't see it applying to under 18s.

Happy to be corrected, but I haven’t seen it anywhere that u 18s won’t be included.

They won’t be. It would be unfair on children who are not eligible for the COVID jabs when under 16 to be penalised for not having a COVID passport.

According to the Red Andrex...

"The new guidelines will apply to venues with a capacity in excess of 10,000, meaning those attending upcoming matches at the City Ground and Meadow Lane will need to show proof of double vaccination or a negative lateral flow test."

We all have! - what do suggest we do then?

Carry on as we were two weeks ago. Not a single death worldwide from Omicron. Complete overreaction, entirely political.

As I said above, they’ll have to produce evidence of a negative lateral flow test. It was the same for the Euros.

Will the 'free' ones from the NHS suffice?

Agree entirely.

Agree entirely.

Do you know that for definite?

In order to make our capacity 9,999 or less, maybe one option for us would be to close the upper Kop, allow no 'on the day' admissions to the Family stand, and limit away fans. Really unfair on ST holders in the upper Kop, but it could be a way around the restrictions. Maybe for the greater good we should abide by the restrictions and take the hit on attendances.
