With the likelihood that plan b for COVID restrictions is to be implemented Premiership already talking about vaccine passports to enter stadium,s from this weekend wonder if they will compensate ticket holders who ain't?

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Any outdoor events over 4000 will require a COVID pass or a negative test should rule us out for majority of games but his anyone going to follow rules after the stories heard today.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

We dream of 4k so why worry.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Why would I be worried just stating a new ruling.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

its 10k though for all seater grounds and 4k for stanging only ones. where does that leave stanley and othere that have both.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Confused.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

I'm surprised that there's nothing on the web, apart from Twitter, about us beating Peter Murphy's Wigan U23s 3-1 away to reach the semi-finals of the Lancashire Senior Cup, with goals from Matty Carson, Josh Woods and Lewis Mansell. Blackpool are also through, after beating Everton away. PNE and Liverpool are yet to play, as are Bolton and Burnley.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

As different stadia have different layouts & capacities, I think it will more likely be a % of the capacity (social distancing) because a simple number won't work.


This is just my assumption mind, I have no definitive confirmation to support my view, but seeing how the govt & those "clever" advisors chop & change things hourly it seems the most (Illogical) logical response. ;)

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

cannot understand why people use twitter its GARBAGE. i go on but certainly not regular.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Up here we have had this for a while. It is the size of the crowd that matters not the stadium and if any are in unseated areas it's the 4000 that applies.

For big crowds it's random checks so you won't always be checked and the stewards do not put a lot of effort into it so it is pretty pointless.

It may be different at accy but with most crowds under 4000 I doubt it will happen often but who knows at the moment

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Stanley could temporarily reduce capacity to 4000 and avoid this nonsense how when queuing up to a large event do you know the person next to you his jabbed by the time you reach the turnstiles it's irrelevant nonsense, just reduce capacity Andy easier.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

I would think that the only game likely to be affected by it is Sunderland in January if it's still on the go. If it works like up here all the clubs did was state our crowds are under the limit and didn't check.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

EFL issuing fresh COVID advice to clubs and supporters this coming week one suggestion being clubs should group players together on coaches depending on vaccination status or past infection, and another goalkeeper,s should train separately to avoid risk of postponement,s they fear a real risk of disruption to the season down the line with this new strain. Seems to me the government on past lies and mismanagement know something we don't.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

balls the government know as much as us andyd.what they dont know and nor do the media theres a new strain in france, my mate who is an HGV driver and lives in Germany told me when he got to the french port to deliver something to here. a customs guy told him that. he told me last night.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Yeah, but who told the customs guy? His mate who works in a cafe, where one of the chefs moonlights there from his main job in a hospital canteen?

Interesting that he started on the bench though. Maybe not quite the golden boy there yet.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Professional Footballer,s Association chief Mousino who plays for Oxford wants life time bans for any " fan " invading or encroachment on the pitch. He goes on to say what used to be someone coming on and trying to evade stewards in a comical chase has this season worryingly turned into violence and assault,s on players they could be coming towards you wanting a " selfie " or could be carrying a knife totally agree no excuse for encroaching the playing surface. Although if you had gone on Wednesday,s pitch you would probably have drowned.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

No problem with that but I’d also not complain about yellow cards for goal scorers deliberately running towards opposition fans to taunt them. Scoring is the best response to fan abuse, but then taunting opposition fans just suggests some players are little better than the idiots in the crowd.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

that used to be the case at one time but is now ignored like the keepers 6 second law and taking a throw in from the place the ball went out of play. years ago many kids went onto the pitch at the end of games but most playing the game were not pampered rich idiots in those days.

Morecambe give permission for manager Robinson to speak to St.Mirren about there vacant job.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Most would probably think St Mirren is a “bigger job”, but I wonder whether the fans’ dreadful behaviour at the Bolton game is a factor for Robinson?

[QUOTE=Div3North;1264221]Most would probably think St Mirren is a “bigger job”, but I wonder whether the fans’ dreadful behaviour at the Bolton game is a factor for Robinson?

think morecambe fans might be worried if he does go as there is a good chance of him taking a few of their better players with him at the end of the season. thats if they stay up and fancy a sideways move for more money.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Unproven and there are fans who witnessed the so called offence and not one to a man has confirmed the alleged incident.

No mention of the Bolton scum throwing objects at our goalkeeper which resulted in the players being taken off the field.....no mention of the post match incident where a disabled supporter in a mobility scooter was assaulted and his scooter being over turned.

Bolton scum have a record of racist chanting.....

Adams returned to Morecambe and Bradford name Mark Hughes has new boss.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

it isn,t stanley or morecambe,s fault that there club has fallen on bad times. same with blackpool at one time. These clubs fans need to show some sort of respect and not vent their anger of how low they feel their club has dropped to places where they are happy to be where they are.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

think in this case its all about asperations for their club. its not as if leeds are losing by the odd goal at the moment but are getting hammered and are in freefall. doubt he,d have lasted at any other premier club fighting relegation at the moment. do not know if they have a horrendous injury list though which may have been a get out for him.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

they have had an horrendous injury list also their main striker has been out most of the season.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Chelsea are given special permission to continue playing but are barred from selling home and away tickets only season ticket holders allowed in club shop shut and Abravomich barred from selling club as he is sanctioned, if they fall into administration they will get the necessary point,s punishment.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

As if one of the richest men in the world would let that happen.
He'll top up the lost revenue from ticket sales and shop sales out of his pocket (spending money).
Wages all paid.
He's already said that he wouldn't profit personally from the sale and any profit made would go straight to Ukranian relief charities.
His issue will be the transfer embargo in and out.
All depends how long this humanitarian disaster goes on for.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

BBC this afternoon.

"The UK government is open to considering a further addition to the special licence to allow a sale to proceed"

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Don't pretend to know the ins and outs but has he is sanctioned any "sale " agreed while he is means he wouldn't make a penny profit it's a unique scenario and a strange one and apparently season ticket holders can't buy future cup game tickets so potential home games could be empty stadium,s. Also he isn't allowed to put anymore money in wage bill currently approximately £28 million a month I think so it's difficult but someone could get a bargain buy.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Call me hard- hearted but, given what’s happening elsewhere, I’m really struggling to have any concern for the ‘troubles’ of Abramovich or Chelsea FC.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Of course you're absolutely right but I don't think there's any "concern" for his "troubles"
Andy simply highlighting the issue from a football perspective.
The "haves" will prevail.
Before any money runs out the sale will be agreed and everyone will move on - footballing wise that is.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Chelsea,s main shirt sponsor suspends it's £40 million a year contract immediately others expected to follow suit.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Let the sale go through get the funds paid into an Escrow Account.
Government can then drip feed funds into the club subject to audit.
No way a club the size of Chelsea will fail on the end of this.
Starve Abramovich of any proceeds.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Chelsea fans reportedly chanting Abrovenich,s name at Norwich last night thick and don't realise what role this mafia type bloke has had in the Putin regime. Government for once IMHO doing something right hope he ends up on his ass, Chelsea will be sold just has long as he doesn't make another halfpenny from them, will they be propped up as before financially doubt it but to me that's a good thing for football in general far to many reliant on " generous " owners.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

T5Nike have a 15 year deal worth £900 million and are talking about pulling the plug, last week Abrovenich wanted £3 billion for the club could be an ugly time ahead. Several players 5 I think are out of contract including thier captain not allowed to discuss new deals and under a transfer embargo.

So the BBC, in its so so impartial way, decide today to broadcast the Newcastle v Chelsea game.

Meanwhile Ukrainians are being blown to bits by Abramovic’s pal and Yemenis being bombed by Newcastle’s new owner.

Will they update the death rates at half time with the other scores today?

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Dont worry Gary Lineker and Danny Murphy will make it all better.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Didn't the compare in Coleys used to bore to death the Turf Moor crowd? Looks now like he's switched his allegiance and jumped on the Stanley band wagon.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

The Marquee shut before kick off and did no reopen.

The stewards let you go to it and half time even though it was shut and demand tickets on the way back a few seconds later.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

Mr Evans back at Stevenage. They really do deserve each other and will very possibly be enjoying life in the National League next season.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 

not sure the defence of being under the weather with drink should wash either. i get annoyed by this boozing being used for bad behaviour at matches as an excuse. about time all clubs refuse admission to anyone they think have had too much to drink or being on drugs. possibly there would be less of these cases if that was the case. too many blind eyes are looking at the condition of fans entering grounds as long as they can walk in.
