We reported earlier today the limit on restrictions to fans can end in August if everything goes to plan between now and then.
Speaking to RecordSport, David Leitch said:
“Yes, they can on August 10th, but we’ve had to learn that new word, that indicative word, so we have given advice that with a fair wind the trajectory we are presently on with vaccinations, remember, we are vaccinating 300,000 people every 10 days so that’s a lot of vaccine and this six weeks buys us quite a lot of vaccine time.
“If people come and that’s the important thing people can do then, yes, we hope August 9th and 10th can happen.”
“On August 9th, the level system disappears, unless, for instance, there were particular hotspots or the country didn’t do what we hope it will do. Maybe vaccinations slow down for some reason.
“It’s a little bit indicative, then on August 9th all physical distancing is removed and the limits on event sizes are removed.”
This is a profound and emotional moment for football fans up and down the country.
In the grand scheme of things, after what’s gone on in the world, football pales into comparison. However, it cannot be underestimated how much a trip to the stadium to watch their team play can lift their mood and outlook.
We have been deprived of so much for so long being able to head to the game with your family and friends will be a massive thing for people up and down the country.
There will be tears shed on the terrace when things start to get back to normal.
All bets are off when that first rendition of You’ll Never Walk Alone plays over the tannoy inside a full house at Celtic Park, waves of tears not seen since Henrik Larsson signed off as a Celtic player.
The fast tracked genetic engineering vaccine for the still as yet non-isolated mild respiratory virus. The game was up for this hoax a year ago. Are we still seriously playing along?!
Try visiting an NHS hospital ya clown.
Try to educate yourself instead of swallowing the right wing Trumpian anti-vaxxer conspiracy crap from your bedroom laptop
