Re: Government u-turn on crowds
Unbelievable, especially when we would be outside and really spread out around the ground in open air, whereas pubs are the total opposite and can still be open till 10pm. Is it me or is everything arse about?

This is from 1st October. Given our planned game is on 30th September, could that still go ahead?

So you’ve spent £325 on a ticket to a game you now cannot attend

There's going to be waves of this virus keep coming until a vaccine is available things will reach a point where sporting clubs will start to go under at a rate of knots

I think that just about shows you up for what you are. Someone who will renege on an agreed donation (of other people’s money) to the club because you are not going to get something in return.frainthepain wrote: ↑22 Sep 2020, 08:42 Thankfully was due to go down and see Mark on Thursday so no cash exchanged hands
I’m still inclined to think it’s all hot air anyway. Sponsors who put thousands into the club were not getting tickets - every one was going in the ballot for ST holders.
No wonder the club don’t want anything to do with you.
Re: Government u-turn on crowds
Just the government trying scare people again. 10 deaths yesterday from over 60 million people. It’s ok tho u can go cinema or a small pub and sit together tho.

Actually was to be 3 tickets with a pair to be auctioned.
I ask Notts tiger how much have you contributed or help contributed to Tigers foundation? Latest donation would of put my contribution over £1500.

Re: Government u-turn on crowds
Of course it was.
The club were going to risk upsetting ST holders who didn’t get tickets by allowing some to be auctioned off to non-ST holders.
Honestly, I’ve never seen one individual spout such drivel.

Only before 10:00pm. Because after 10:00pm we all know the virus becomes more active and contagious.
I’ve spent months telling people that you can’t treat a virus like a conscious being, only for the government to then suggest that the time of day has a mediating affect on it.

Some top scientists and experts on virus saying where not doing enough others saying we should learn to live with it and not ruin the economy anymore by having restrictions it's hard for me to see where the truth lies I have to be honestnottinghamtiger wrote: ↑22 Sep 2020, 08:58Only before 10:00pm.

That’s the thing with science - it’s as contested as any other discipline.tigerfeat wrote: ↑22 Sep 2020, 09:06Some top scientists and experts on virus saying where not doing enough others saying we should learn to live with it and not ruin the economy anymore by having restrictions it's hard for me to see where the truth lies I have to be honestnottinghamtiger wrote: ↑22 Sep 2020, 08:58Only before 10:00pm.

What all scientists agree on is that the virus (or any virus) does not have consciousness. Essentially, it does not have the capacity for thought. So making decisions based on the principle that it has some kind of ‘thinking ability’ is pointless. For example, closing pubs at 10:00pm will see such a marginal gain, because anyone who is there before then is probably already infected if they are going to be. If I go into a pub at 7:30pm and am exposed to CV-19, it matters not when I leave. The only gain will be that nobody with CV-19 will enter a pub after 10:00pm - as I say, such a marginal gain. I guess it reduces the time I’m ‘at risk’, but in an indoor space I’m probably going to get CV before that time is up.
It’s the people who spread the virus who have the capacity to think. There are two things that impact on the spread of the virus: the density of the population, and how dense the population is.

Exactly. It’s hard to know what is correct when the left hand contradicts what the right is saying.tigerfeat wrote: ↑22 Sep 2020, 09:06Some top scientists and experts on virus saying where not doing enough others saying we should learn to live with it and not ruin the economy anymore by having restrictions it's hard for me to see where the truth lies I have to be honestnottinghamtiger wrote: ↑22 Sep 2020, 08:58Only before 10:00pm.

I’m in the “learn to live with it” camp. However, had I known someone who’d passed away through this, I may think differently.
Agree with the poster who said about not been able to attend a sports event, where social distancing is easier, yet you can still go to a pub, where you could end up sat next to god knows who....where is the sense in that one?

Re: Government u-turn on crowds
It’s a bit crazy. I’d feel safer as one of 1,000 at Wheldon Road than I would in my local pub where there are only 30-50 people, but indoors and much closer together.Fumper27 wrote: ↑22 Sep 2020, 09:22Exactly.

I think the basic principle is that the government is trying to keep open as many places as possible where people spend money and therefore support the economy and employment. The medical aspect of the virus is their secondary concern.
I suspect today’s announcement will be an effort to stop household-to-household transmission, so we’ll see a ban on mixing with other households in indoor environments such as homes and pubs/restaurants,

Re: Government u-turn on crowds
There are some consistencies.
The Government has consistently given inconsistent advice.
As for the 10pm curfew.
Pubs and the night time economy becomes increasingly difficult to manage as the night goes on by imposing the curfew is an attempt to prevent the less inhibited behaviour
I seem to recollect early closing in Scotland certainly in Glasgow and Edinburgh to address the issues.
I personally believe there needs to be a mixture of measures but a realisation we may have to live with the consequences of preventing mass poverty.
I do find there are a small number of posters who too quickly resort to behaviour which shows lack of responsibility.
Probably they act thus in other ateas of their lives.

Re: Government u-turn on crowds
Unfortunately, I think people will just go out an hour earlier, or drink as much in a shorter space of time (thus only speeding up the drunken behaviour).casjunction wrote: ↑22 Sep 2020, 09:58 There are some consistencies.

Can’t help but think it’s aimed at students either. The biggest rise in cases is amongst that group and they are all just starting to return to campus so it will spread like wildfire. In the case of students, all they will do is go back to their accommodation and continue drinking in a much more confined space.

You might have a point here that the game could still have speccies if it's classed a trial the rugby union match tonight is scheduled to have fans in up to press I thinktigerfeat wrote: ↑22 Sep 2020, 08:48Can't see that bit like all the people that went out partying day before rule of six came in so you never knowFumper27 wrote: ↑22 Sep 2020, 08:29 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/54246745
