rammieib Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 2 hours ago, A Ram for All Seasons said: I noticed they had about 100 or so fans in the stadium at the Borussia Dortmund game, presumably to provide a bit of cheering for the TV so that the atmosphere wasn't completely sterile. Although they probably support Dortmund they were not fans. Club and match day officials who were not needed whilst game was on so just spread out in stand. Around 300 people (players, officials, coaches, press, TV) permitted under German rules. The fact everyone was social distancing and wearing a mask I thought was slightly pointless.

Comrade 86 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Anyone else feel like we need a Chrissy Martin thread or two. Rona hitting 300+ is threatening to dethrone our Chris as most talked about thing in our universe and we really can't be having that. I'm thinking a 'Would a Lack of Pace Prevent Chris from Catching Coronavirus?' thread might be a decent starting point. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be surprised if there are more than 100 turn up. It didn’t in Germany. Would you want to watch the game on the tele where you can see the game or stand outside a stadium wondering why the hell you are there lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the club needs to bring ALL stewards that would normally be there on match day, open all areas of the concourses, toilets etc? Dont forget getting the appropriate level of policing in too, just incase some dimwits dont understand what playing behind closed doors means? Sorry B4 just is not going to happen. History sadly tells us opening up access to a stadium because people are outside in their thousands can end in absolute disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 For those wondering home testing... On Thursday I requested a home kit. That kit arrived Friday afternoon. I requested someone to collect it on the Saturday (they came some time in the afternoon). The test had to be completed after 9pm the day before and before 7am the day of collection. This is because they have 48 hours to analyse the swab from when you stuck it up your nose. You’re given one swab (basically a cotton bud on a long stick). You brush your tonsils (or the area where they used to be) and then the back of your throat. A bit of a bag reflex but nothing bad enough to stop be doing it. Using the same swab, you stick it up your nostril (about an inch deep) and spin it around for a while (20 seconds?). This swab then goes into a tube, breaking off the end of the stick. Then you add a label, stick it in a bag, then another bag and another label. Then struggle to fold a box, before inserting the bag and sticking two more different labels on top. I received my negative test result moments ago, less than 96 hours after i requested a kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just give it up B4. It just isn’t going to happen. I know it’s hard to accept but you need to try and come to terms with it for your own sanity. You’re not going to see Derby again, in the flesh, this season and probably for a good part of next. If any fans do turn up, they will be few in number and dealt with by the police fairly rapidly.

I read that the nasal swab needed to shoved much further up the nostril, such that the testing procedure would be quite unpleasant. and that this failure to swab correctly would lead to a lot of false negatives.

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Good news (for me at least), I got my sense of taste and smell back in the last 24 hours. I 'tasted' food for the first time since mid-March today. Best cheese toastie I have ever had. The bad news is I can now once again smell it when my daughter decides to fill her nappy.

Imagine how long it will take to call Stan, to get him to bring the turnstile keys (He lives 40mins away, don't forget). And bear in mind he's pretty much deaf now, so I seriously doubt he'll hear his phone ring first time! Then, the computer doodahs will need to be switched on, to allow the gate to recognise your ticket, otherwise the turnstile won't turn! The white shed thing would need to be opened and manned... in case the computer doodahs don't recognise your ticket, and you have trouble getting in... holding everyone up in the process, as you block the turnstile! Then you realise you have forgotten your flask and sandwiches, and ask them to hang on whilst you nip home and grab them. And to cap it all, just as you approach your seat with the biggest grin on your face, thinking you are one of the lucky ones, you trip and fall down the stairs, breaking your leg... just as the PA guy announces that they aren't actually insured to have members of the public inside the stadium, so "can you please, please, please be extra careful, and make sure you don't injure yourself, otherwise we could all get into trouble"! No, I think the easiest thing would be to give these people a lift in the back of a van, to the local police station, and show them around the cells.
