Well b back 3,190 Posted November 23, 2020 25 minutes ago, chicken said: Yeah, I can see why with that sort of post... It isn't about the individuals choices. This has already been widely discussed in regards to masks. It's about protecting other people. Other people without any perceived underlying issues can still die from it. A lot of people don't realise they have underlying health issues. My late father didn't know he had an irregular heart beat until his 'MOT' when he turned 60. Thankfully at the moment the government doesn't appear to agree with that tact either, nor does the WHO or any scientists etc. But yes, by all means support who you want politically, just the statement that Boris etc have done the best they can is evidently false, eg; he didn't attend several meetings in regards to the virus at it's outset. May I also add we are still to discover the full effects of long Covid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,635 Posted November 23, 2020 (edited) Yup, if Boris has done his best that is rather worrying for everything else he has to do as PM - he took far too long to take it seriously and almost everything has been very last minute and extremely confused since. But otherwise he’s done a great job...😕 It'll be a little odd with some games still being behind closed doors while others aren’t - and presumably with no away fans - it will surely give an advantage to the former group.

You got the shovel fella, not me. This was never about Boris doing his best though either was it? It was about a decision to allow fans back into games, not a discussion on whether the current PM or government had done their best, or were doing well, or are utterly brilliant. So it's most definitely your shovel, as you appear to be using it so aptly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Diane 500 Posted November 23, 2020 Good News 4000 if Norfolk is in Tier 1 and 2000 if we are in Tier 2, we have 3 home games before the Xmas so hopefully some of us will be lucky in the next lottery draw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted November 23, 2020 Another absurd decision 400 in Bournemouth's 12,000 stadium - against 4000 in Spurs 60,000 stadium Where is the logic there ? The first will be just over a third full Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,195 Posted November 23, 2020 Very pleased if we do get the chance to attend a match or two. In some ways it's unfair on some clubs in higher tiers and could actually benefit us if we manage to get 4000 in. There's lots of optimism at the moment mainly on the back of the great news about the vaccines, but I can't help thinking there will be a sting in the Covid tail before we can think about throwing parties. Wouldn't mind betting we'll be back in lockdown again after Christmas. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted November 23, 2020 Funny, I never think of Carrow Road as a Stadium. I think of it as a Ground. And I agree about percentage of capacity. Luton fall into the same small capacity as Bournemouth. Whereas they both fit into Hillsborough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ron obvious 1,499 Posted November 24, 2020 1 minute ago, CANARYKING said: Any sensible answers ? I think that' really comes into the 'how long is a piece of string' category. I think it depends on the nature of your conditions & how much covid is likely to impact on them. The trouble is we don't really have enough hard information about the way the virus interacts with our system, & may not have for many months to come. Perhaps you could have a chat with your GP? Although I doubt he'll much by way of a definitive answer. Personally I'd read up all the (genuine) information I could find & make my own evaluation. Really it's going to come down to how you feel about whether the risk's worthwhile or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only you can judge that, but as a general rule I would say anyone should very much err on the side of caution. It is a question of weighing up being able to attend a football match against the threat from a deadly (or at the least highly dangerous) virus about which still not enough is known.

CaptCanary 45 Posted February 12, 2021 With The Times reporting today that social distancing and masks might have to be in place until the Autumn, possibly the end of the year, I wonder how much longer it will be until we get back to a full stadium? Incredible to think we're coming up to a year since the last one. What a great couple of nights they were, beating Leicester at home and Spurs away! Supposed to be going to see The Killers at Carrow Road in June - can't see that happening unfortunately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
