Quote: Cokey "No mention of tickets here. It sounds like you're in favour of a fans return to some capacity which is what i have been saying on the VT that you've been challenging.
Talking hypothetical, If the government said they would be prepared to trial a pilot scheme for the challenge cup final with a certain amount of fans to be allowed in, and Wigan made the final.Would you want to attend? or by your principal, you would rather not,so as to not take the risk of catching Covid?
You are either for or against a fans return. You have made it clear on the VT that you're totally against it, yet on here you talk as if it could be possible as shown in the quote above.'"
Quoting someones post from a week before the new rules were put in place when there was a possibility that the Saints game would go ahead and when the person is talking "hypothetically" about how 1000 tickets "Could" be distributed is a LONG WAY from looking at it over a week or so later when new lock down rules have been put in place because of the 2nd wave and Trials of sporting events have been put back/called off and then trying to make out people are contradicting themselves.
Let's make it simple
The people you are arguing with DON'T THINK it would be a good idea to petition the government etc. to allow limited numbers of fans into games in the current climate for lots of reasons, and they've expanded on some of them.
When you then add in all of the costs involved in making this happen, and for what benefit the game itself would get out of it in the current escalating climate and I too don't think it would be a good idea.
You crack on, go ahead with the petition, that's your right, no-ones stopping you, no-one says it's impossible to do, they're just saying is it worth the risk
If the government do trial it each individual would have to make their own call, would I go, Yes
Do I think we should petition the government and then ask clubs to incur potential extra costs and put people "At Risk" (Not that it is definite that something will go wrong, but increasing the risk that it will and for very small benefit) then no, I don't.
