Wontvthey be cancelled like Arsenals have been?

They’ve been out there most of the week. It was just the game tomorrow that jogged my memory.

Arsenal had a COVID outbreak which stopped them travelling.

During pre-season match between Portsmouth FC vs Bristol City, a couple of Portsmouth players picked up an injury and Portsmouth didn't have 11 players to continue the game. So Bristol City player Marlee François was allowed to play for Portsmouth and successfully scored against his own club

Absolutely despicable excuse of a man.

Arsenal and Man City's pre-season chaos shows the PL is set for another year of uncertainty

The notion that football is suddenly about to get back to normal amid soaring Covid-19 cases across the UK is an illusion

Could see things like this happening not just in sports either. Not sure how I feel about it tbh.

 

[Scouseinthehouse]

I'm 100% in favour personally. With the caveat when it comes to proof of double vaccination, you have to have given every age group the chance to be jabbed. And within the timeframe before whatever the event is. You can't bring that in and preclude people who haven't even been given the choice.

 

[Theatre of Dreams83]

Yeah it’s a toughie. As I don’t think people who don’t want to have it not be aloud in.

 

[Tyton]

Yeah I'm not a fan of these kind of measures. Don't get me wrong I took the vaccine as soon as it was available, but there's a reason all democratic countries make it illegal to force medical procedures on people.

They aren't.

It's the individual's freedom of choice to take the vaccine or not.

But by the same token, it's any organisations right, in this case, football, to ensure the maximum safety of their customers/ participants/ staff et al to what they deem applicable.

If someone's convictions are such that they don't want to be vaccinated, sound. That's their prerogative. But they can't then nark when somewhere else exercises there's.

All about freedom of choice.
