New Covid restrictions in place for 6 months on 13:47 - Sep 22 by LankHenners
Basically the people at the top of the table need to decide whether to look after the pyramid or themselves. Unfortunately can predict which one they'll go for.
The other sport-related bit of interest in there was extending the 'rule of six' to all indoor team sports. Seems a bit pointless in one sense as most team sports require more than 6 people so they're essentially being told they can't go ahead, which will have an effect on sports/leisure centres. Already seen heads/representatives of various sporting bodies scrambling to work out if their sport applies and if there's a way to continue without infringing the rule.
Interestingly I found out the other day that the sports centre near me was already not allowing team sports inside unless the sport was organised under an official body, e.g. the local football team. Wonder if others will have a similar plan (if allowed) so they actually have some paying customers.
The PL have already issued a statement saying they want fans back in their grounds even though the new restrictions say no.
Whining their clubs are losing £700m, but at the same time spending £30m in wages on one player (Bale) and watching Chelsea spend £200m+.

No way people will do all this for 6 months.
You'll do your best though eh?

The premier league clubs could easily prop the rest up instead of spending 220m on players like Chelsea have.
Instead we have the likes of Crystal Palace doing exactly the opposite and trying to prey on the situation with lowball bids for players in lower divisions who don't have the consistent income the PL still enjoys.

How many of those from socially distanced fans at a much reduced capacity stadium I wonder? Next to none I would wager.
Depends doesn't it? How many traveled there alone and went straight to their seat? How many took public transport? How many took the opportunity to meet up with mates?
Going to one event where you're socially distanced still creates multiple potential vectors.

France, Italy & Germany have all managed to get fans into grounds. Pretty sure I saw it in Scotland too. Fans won’t be kept out for that long, it’s a complete lack of common sense bearing in mind all of the far riskier activities that we are allowed to do. We’ll be back by January, maybe sooner if, god forbid, something terrible were to happen to Downing Street. I’m sure we all have our fingers crossed.

All the fans at a recent Ligue 1 match I watched on telly were wearing masks. There wasn’t much social distancing though, with fans sitting beside one another.
No idea if the capacity was reduced or not.

Is your downvote a way of saying you don't intend to stick to the rules Paz?

I’d like to think they will. We’ve been through lock down 1 by and large most people got on with it and knuckled down, this is not as severe and should be viewed as being a lot easier, most people are sensible and can see a good chance of restrictions easing if we show we can be trusted unfortunately there will always be a minority who will spoil it for the majority. I look at it this way, the NHS is asking us to do our bit again, and that I have no problem with, it’s a civic duty if you like.

I don't see it, it still isn't clear enough like the lockdown was
Personally I'd rather things be stricter and have more clarity - there needs to be a more idiot proof guide to it

I’ll do my best to live as close to normal a life as possible within the rules, yes.
Glad to hear it.
Care for your community is critical now. Even the piccaninnies and bumboys.
