If 40-50000 people can march through London without causing an upturn in cases, surely opening stadiums must be on the cards. It's time to get back to normal

All fans would be seated with no standing what so ever. Every other row of seats would be closed along with every other seat plus one in rows that are open to be closed as well. In other words as an example seat number 1 would be used; seats 2 and 3 would be closed with seat number 4 open and so on?
Alternatively if a row of seats had say 25 seats fans would enter the open row at seat number 25 and then move down that row until the next open seat starting from seat number 1 then 4 then 7 etc etc thereby mitigating the need for people to come in contact with others in order to get a seat. Fans wouldn't have the choice of where to sit but at least they are at a game.
All bars would remain closed as well as other areas of pre and post match gatherings.
If the Government bring in a 1m rule then the above may work but it would have to be strictly monitored and enforced by stadium stewards on match days.
It would be necessary for every fan to purchase a numbered ticket indicating the seat and row number where they could sit.
Not sure what the maximum number of fans that the above could accommodate but it would provide some income.
Would this work....

Good hand hygiene is far, far preferable. Just seeing people driving away from the supermarket with gloves still on makes me cringe. I have changed my mind on mask wearing, as long as the wearer understands who and how the mask protects- masks over nose and mouth protect other people, full face shields protect the wearer.

For 'deaths' it would be more like five weeks behind. Most people in ITU would spend an average of three weeks on a ventilator before recovering or dying. So two weeks asymptomatic, then three weeks ill before dying.Phil Anderer wrote:As for wearing gloves, I was in a virtual seminar last week and the consensus, which I agree with, was that gloves actually increase risk; people think they're protected by the gloves, but if they touch a contaminated surface with the gloves then touch their face, BOOM, they've potentially got the virus.

I completely agree with these comments. Wearing gloves without washing hands is far worse than not wearing gloves but washing hands. I'm also, like Phil, coming around to face marks. There is definitely an increased risk from touching your face more frequently because they are uncomfortable, but people now appear to be getting the message that a mask doesn't offer any real protection to the wearer, but does reduce the risk of transmission if the wearer is positive. In places like shops, it can protect the staff.
Isle of Man has been COVID-19 free for about 56 days now. Everything is normal again, except our borders remain closed. There is a slight lifting of restrictions on travel from next Monday, but residents who are off Island must quarantine for 14 days on their return. This will be strictly monitored and failure to comply can result in up to six weeks in jail. If we get cases back on the IoM (12 cases from memory) then borders will close again. Only residents can travel or people given a dispensation for humanitarian purposes, such as having elderly parents living here, so no tourism still.
Hopefully, by the time football starts again, we'll be able to travel!

I personally believe that some of those that marched in london, and damaged statues, were not all from that area, and are responsible for the local lockdown's that have happened in places like Leicester, and other places nearer home.

Maybe with some tweaking to the above it might be a solution.....???????

Slight lifting in travel restrictions come in next Monday. On his return, he will need to quarantine for 14 days. Police will randomly check and anyone breaching this can face six weeks in prison! Surprised he didn't arrange for you to put it on the ferry and send it over unaccompanied, unless he's staying over there for a holiday in a new motorhome?

I always thought it would be October.
Maybe September could be used to play games like the Check a Trade trophy and League Cup 1st round (if these competitions are still going to run) and charge fans to watch them on the I-Fan tv channel
