If it was purely on health grounds then I am interested for you to tell me why it's okay for me next Wednesday night to take a bus into town to sit INSIDE a cinema for two hours next to a bunch of strangers whilst queueing at a food kiosk to buy something to eat and going to the toilet but I can't take a bus to town on the same evening to sit OUTSIDE for two hours next to a bunch of strangers whilst queueing at a kiosk to buy food and going to the toilet????

I didn't say her decision was wrong but if she was truly following the science on public health grounds (and to help NHS workers) she would be closing down indoor places long before outdoor places as it has been proven beyond any doubt that the risk is a significant multiple higher indoors rather than outdoors. The inconsistency proves beyond any doubt that football has been harder hit than other leisure activities for reasons other than health grounds. If you don't get that then let me know and I can try and spell it out a bit easier for you to understand
If people actually listened they would hear the reasoning but they don't. Because they don't we are where we are.

It just so happens football matches are the largest attended events in the country way more than most indoor events. This results in more exposure on public transport and the need for a paramedic/police which puts more strain on the emergency services which are already struggling. But carry on with the agenda theory if that floats your boat.
