Greavsy 2,554 Posted August 10, 2021 @Feedthewolf@Lessingham Canary @ncfcstar Referring back to comms from the club, and whilst I appreciate this has only recently been announced, this is contrary to the latest club announcement. Can you use your contacts to seek some clarity for what ncfc are doing, with it being 4 days until we kick off. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have already briefly discussed this with the club, so to offer them some mitigation it sounds like the PL have moved the goalposts on numerous occasions so the clubs were quite unsure as to exactly what was expected of them. I'm reluctant to place much blame at the door of the club here, but I'm sure @Feedthewolf will get a good update from Caroline as to what the club expect to be in place for the weekend.

Greavsy 2,554 Posted August 10, 2021 No blame directed at the club in this instance, as I said in my post it has only recently been announced from the EPL. My post was to make people aware, and secondly to get the clubs response / action. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry, to clarify I wasn't suggesting you were blaming the club, I was just getting some mitigation in before the inevitable complaint does come further down the thread!

A pre-emptive complaint rebuff!! Is the board that predictable? 😛 I know what you mean though. I think the problem is, as previously discussed, the club has been poor with their comms, and whilst it's been a moving target, out of their control sometimes. So we know what to expect ( or not to be more accurate). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Creedence Clearwater Couto 1,416 Posted August 10, 2021 Hmmmm.... at least a negative test result is accepted. Otherwise, it would be uproar. Still.... Chaos at some point will ensue, no doubt about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,685 Posted August 10, 2021 I've been doubled pricked and may do a LFT as well, just in case! Doesn't sound as though the club are geared up for this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can also also order online on the Gov website - they arrive next day. https://www.gov.uk/order-coronavirus-rapid-lateral-flow-tests Each box contains 7 tests.

You dont actually need to send proof youve done the test, let alone the result. Its all a bit of a farce to me, but not sure of the other, more secure options with home tests. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken Hairy 4,131 Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) The lateral flow tests are pointless anyway, you don't even need to take the test, just use the test number and record that it was negative on the website, you then get your confirmation email, no need to actually prove it. Utterly pointless and ridiculous really. Edited August 10, 2021 by Ken Hairy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Angry 1,748 Posted August 10, 2021 When I collected some from Boots a few weeks ago, I was asked if I’d had both jabs-when I said yes, I was told that the lateral flow test would almost certainly show negative even if I had it. I mentioned this to my friends and last week one of them told me that someone they knew had had both jabs, a lateral flow test showed negative but then a PCR test showed positive. It’s all a bit of a lottery 😳 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
