Would you go to a match now if you had the opportunity?

I would attend but at least have face covering, hand sanitiser could be supplied around the ground but probably wouldn’t last long. Something needs to be implemented as you can’t rely on common sense unfortunately. I did vote for face covering as I would wash my hands in the loo when required.

Given that coronavirus is transmitted from person to person via droplet transmission, and we obviously know that droplets of saliva are projected much further when shouting, singing, chanting etc. I would have thought that face coverings are a must...

...and the FA and government are conspicuously silent on how this grand re-opening is going to be funded. I think this is the problem, I know people who follow this forum and ones like it are avid supporters, and I know most would go back tomorrow if the rules were you had to go in your underpants with a bag over your head. The core support is not enough to sustain a football club, certainly not for a club like us, we need the ad-hoc and away support and the revenue it generates just to survive. Our club is very well run and I doubt it would actually go bankrupt, but a big drop in earnings will hurt our status, it is already said that we are punching above our weight in financial terms. A return to football with reduced capacities or strict rules will not get the revenue through the gates. From what I have seen of the FA guidance and lack of support from elsewhere in the game and from government, looks very much to me that we and many clubs like us are being chucked under a bus. The trick is to get the clubs and supporters to call for the return and then when clubs go to the wall say 'you wanted it back'

Of course I would go back next Saturday if I could. What it be a sensible or wise decision? Of course not.

Would you go to a match now if you had the opportunity? absolutely, if a game was organised I wouldn’t hesitate about attending though would probably wear a face covering and having some sanitiser on me.

OS, I like your suggestion but anyone who's seen Blackadder goes forth would say the underpants have to be worn on your head, with pencils stuck up your nose. The bag could be used as a mobile lavatory, thereby reducing the risk of using the facilities.

Sounds like a cunning plan. Just remember your stick, lieutenant. You wouldn't want to face the German machine guns without it......
