UEFA putting pressure on to allow VIPs and fans into UK without quarantine 13:45 - Jun 18 with 1629 viewsElderGrizzly

For Semi-finals and Final. And threatening to take it to Hungary if the Govt don't agree.

Uefa said on Friday that it was in discussions about allowing supporters travelling to the UK to avoid having to quarantine.

“At the moment, we are in discussions with the local authorities to try to allow fans of the participating teams to attend the matches, using a strict testing and bubble concept that would mean their stay in the UK would be less than 24 hours and their movements would be restricted to approved transport and venues only,” a spokesperson said.

Indeed.

40,000 fans from any country, whether that is Amber or Red list allowed in

As long as they "stay in a bubble", are here for only 24 hours and go from transport to hotel to stadium only.

Because that'll work...

It's unlikely to work, unless they could bubble transport them. That would be logistically highly unlikely.

Why should these supposed VIPs and politicians get priority treatment over normal fans anyway? The amount of sacrifices people have been making and then they contemplate just waiving away the laws because..well money. Fine for those officials needed to run the game, as long as there are some covid protocols in place. But all those on freebie jollies can get stuffed as far as I'm concerned.

2,500 VIPs, but now they are also asking for 40,000 fans to be allowed in too without quarantine.

All utterly bizarre given our current 'lockdown' extension

If they can all show vaccination passports or proof of double jabs then sure, I mean that’s what the majority of our population are advocating for summer holidays this year.

No vaccine=no entry should be the proposal put to them

Saw this on Newsnight last night.

It's absolutely outrageous, they can't guaranteed the movements like they have said and to apply this type of political and economic pressure during a pandemic is hugely out of order.

UEFA can fook off.

That doesn't stop all transmission.

There is a red list for a reason, you are saying that people from that red listed country should be able to come without hotel quarantine which is simply against the rules and a terrible idea.

Italy's just announced a 5 day quarantine for travellers from the UK. It'd be interesting to see if they're exempt when returning from the final.

The 40000 fans can come from any country, that is the point, UEFA want no quarantine for the fans or for the officials.

Given this they can't guarantee none of the people coming won't be from red list countries. The issue here is they want to ignore our rules and are using the final as a way to force that through - it's outrageous behaviour really.

My argument is we are set to introduce rules for the uk for people wanting to holiday in amber and green countries where no self isolation is required if double vaccinated so what is the difference here?

I’m not advocating allowing people in from red list countries (of which I’m still waiting on you to tell me what red list countries there are in the UEFA area)

Out of interest, why do you want a list just for UEFA countries when the spectators are not limited to people from UEFA countries, at least to my knowledge?

Turkey is the only one on the red list. I don't think it's that outrageous as the same reason that the champions league final was moved to Portugal, so there's a precedent.

Britain allowed 20,000 people to travel in from India between 2nd April and the 23rd April when Pakistan and Bangladesh were on the red list , so this is no worse than that IMO. Still madness if the Government were to agree to it.

Is that the Hungry with the second highest per capita death rate from Covid in the world? That should pan out well.
Am never sure how far this organisation can go with their immoral behaviour but they seem to be able to lower the bar just when we think they have reached the bottom.
Maybe the sponsors should take some responsibility and day they will follow the requirements as should everyone.

Did they die from the Delta variant or were they popping their clogs anyway and either rightly or wrongly tested positive whilst popping their clogs anyway?

That's not a precedent though, the rules between Portugal and the UK are totally different and the Portuguese were lax and they are suffering for it now.

Why do fans only have to come from Europe? Same with officials?

Some really muddled thinking on this thread.
