As for policing it, how will it differ to a supermarket?

What will be put in place that stops me standing chatting to someone within 1.5m? Is a steward going to stop me? How are they going to do that? What stops me from touching all the empty seats around me that other people then touch?

It will be no different to a supermarket except that people need to buy food, they don't need to watch rugby.

I'm obviously wasting my time with you. Yes Leigh voted Tory, yet I want stadiums to open,so what's your point? Wigan continued to vote for a far left woke loving marxists. Labour are finished, cant you see that? We in Leigh can. My guess is that you're a remainer and you want everything to fail.

No ideas on how you want to police it then?

Both entitled to our opinions. Mine is that while we are on what is the equivalent of a soft lockdown and I can't go and see my family or friends at their house I shouldn't be able to attend a rugby game either.

Underlying health conditions does not mean at death's door. A study in Italy showed that the number of years of life lost by victims of CV was on average 12. Even those over 80 with several conditions lost 3 years that they would otherwise have been expected to live.

If you can't envisage what stewards can do to ensure that safety measures are observed, then you're living in a constant fog. You talk about a soft lockdown, and not seeing your parents, yet the infection rate is increasing through lack of commonsense and stupidity by not observing the rules,because there is no one there to keep folk in line with the restrictions. At least there are stewards at the stadium to ensure all safety measures are observed in and around the stadium. What more do you want? And don't keep asking me what measures should be in place, you're making yourself look stupid.

The main problem is not posed during the match itself but in getting them in, and more importantly, out of the ground, not to mention having '00(0)s descending into one area over a short period of time putting a strain on local amenities and pubs.

Local amenities and pubs should have their measures in place too. There's no excuse. What you're saying is,we are too stupid to follow these important life threatening rules.

They can not get all the people on buses to were masks or not to close together so no chance at rugby league

Why no chance at rugby league? I just don't get it.

How are you getting everyone out of the ground without them all being grouped together? Unfortunately when everyone wants to do the same thing at the same time (i.e leave after the final whistle) impatience would take over, and social distancing would go out of the window. People would not politely queue 2m apart for god knows how long to leave safely. Just look at how people behave driving in heavy traffic if you want an insight into why I don't think they will adhere to the rules. Even in the beer queues at the ground people get as close as possible to the person in front as though it will somehow make the queue move quicker.

I know you have mentioned stewards, but they aren't highly trained, have little power, and the ones I know weren't exactly the brightest and the best to begin with, nor are they in any way intimidating. Realistically impatient people wanting to leave would just tell them to f* off if they tried to tell them to patiently wait 2m apart for a significant length of time and that would be the end of it.

It's ok we'll have stewards

Just edited it for the steward point as you quoted me he has a lot more faith in them than I have!

Alas fans aren’t allowed in stadiums but Tories are allowed to hunt foxes in groups of 30.
