Barrow's approach to Covid Passes 17:11 - Dec 14 with 1246 views | ElderGrizzly | Cap standing at 3,999 (trigger point is 4,000?) to avoid having to ask for anything. "In response to the latest government legislation, we have taken steps to cap our standing capacity to 3,999 which means we are not required to ask for an NHS Covid Pass or evidence of vaccination status" Of course some are applauding them, it does appear to be rather foolish https://www.barrowafc.com/news/2021/december/141221-barrow-clarify-covid-19-prot |  | | |  |

Covid only turns up at 4,000 people standing. Everyone knows that... |  | |  |

I'm not sure you can blame a very small and financially precarious football club for fairly stupid arbitrary rules. |  | |  |

Given the local councils have the power to reduce capacity if enough Covid cases are linked to a stadium, it's not the cleverest decision. I'm sure it is financial, but it comes across as "aren't we clever" |  | |  |

There is certainly some merit in that and I hadn't considered the cost of stewarding. However putting it at 3999 is the worst case given it's the most possible people attending without having to have any checks. SB |  | |  |

In order to ensure the stadium remains a safe environment, we are completely ignoring the number 1 thing we can do to keep people safe. Seems sensible, fair play. |  | |  |

46 people less? So they may as well have just kept quiet! Definitely proud of their little plan then. |  | |  |
