Bradwell canary 109 Posted September 10, 2021 While the PL dithering over COVID passports, why don’t NCFC at the very least do a temp check in the meantime. Some months ago I entered a restaurant and they did a temp check, it takes seconds to do. Then I felt far more comfortable entering their premises. At present I have not used my season ticket, as due to my personal circumstances I feel vulnerable. I would feel more like going if at least some safety checks took place. Frankly we all know that some people would still go to the game, even if they knew they have the virus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,092 Posted September 10, 2021 No it would be a shambles. They need to open up all the turnstiles first to avoid queues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McWrighty 52 Posted September 10, 2021 Most adults have had the vaccine, and fever is not thought to be a common symptom of Covid among those who have been vaccinated. Also, the temperature guns used commercially aren't terribly accurate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mello Yello 2,265 Posted September 10, 2021 With a temperature gun in one hand and a tazer in the other......the Carra control of entry Centurion Gate guardian yells.... "Your temperature reading is indicating over 38C therefore you're UNCLEAN! Take that, ZAP"....Ok guys drag this unwelcome diseased one back outside........."NEXT!" 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greavsy 2,398 Posted September 10, 2021 Whilst smaller numbers, of course - they had temperature testing at the pilot / test events. Surely that was the point, to see the impact, and make any tweeks / adjustments before scaling up for larger crowds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,092 Posted September 12, 2021 So Govt have ditched plans to introduce Covid passports. Well that's not going to make the vulnerable feel any safer at Carrow Rd as no incentive for the young to get jabbed now, or in the future. Can't see NCFC bothering with any tests now of any sort. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grando 256 Posted September 12, 2021 It would make more sense to encourage mask wearing, at least in the concourses and inside areas. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diane 498 Posted September 12, 2021 Several clubs have done spot covid checks at turnstiles this weekend. Loads of announcements on twitter from various clubs warning fans this will happen . Here's one from Man U Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here's one from Man U Despite the announcement from arsenal, it appears they didn't have any spot checks, according to my lad. I'd guess with boris et al saying no to covid passports now, this will not continue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats outside, and hence evidently less risk, they club are only encouraging mask wearing on concourses, bars, toilets, stairwell, turnstiles and the like. Outdoors, is more up to the individual.

Mask-wearing should be mandatory in all grounds in all areas at all times with the possible exception of when seated, and attendance for adults should be limited to the double vaccinated, with spot checks. And this should have been the case from the start of the season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well b back 3,140 Posted September 15, 2021 Indeed "Particularly high" numbers of COVID-19 infections were identified at the Euro 2020 final, won by Italy after they beat England on penalties. PHE revealed 2,295 people in or around Wembley were likely to have been infectious at the time of the match on July 11. A further 3,404 people in and around the ground were potentially infected around the time of the final, the report said. As the anti vaxers say in their demonstrations get your muzzles off COVID is just flu. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
