Fans may be ordered not to sing, shout or drink alcohol when they are allowed to return to Premier Leaguematches under a new Covid Code of Conduct. This wouldn't affect fans at Southampton home games anyway.
Each fan will be required to complete a health questionnaire and be expected to wear a face covering at all times. Don't Arsenal fans do this anyway to stop them being recognized and shamed by other family members.
They are also likely to be permitted to bring in their own hand sanitiser bottles of no more than 50ml. Wasn't this normal if going to Anfield anyway?
If Surrey is placed into Tier 3 lockdown then will Yernited reach their 4,000 capacity?
If alcohol sales are banned in the stadium then will you be able to still take drugs if watching Everton?
For hospitality suites Newcastle have asked is a Pie a substantial meal to go with the sale of alcohol.
There is one ticket available left for a Cherries home game. Who gets it Pommy or her husband?

Anyway, Saints have two home games when I'm back in Blighty, so don't expect to get in as I imagine season ticket holders will get priority but if they have some hospitality then there's a chance....but if the booze ban is true even upstairs then there might be some good deals to be had.

That could be 2000 more than those allowed to make the trip from Seoul and Guildford to a tired old stadium not far from Manchester though

Now there was something you don't see everyday. Dippers playing at home fortress Anfield and don't have one shot on goal. Sack Klopp

I totally agree that Atalanta didn't have to play that well to win. Mane who I think was up with KdB and VvD as best player in England for last 3 years had a shocker tonight. You didn't register a shot on target in the entire game and that's shocking at home even Olimpiacos managed 2 against us tonight in the 87th and 92nd minute and they played 5-5-0 .
I was really impressed with your lot at the weekend and positively shocked at the performance tonight and the difference in the 2 performances prompted my comment about lack of respect

I think it’s more about a lack of fit players than respect, with the games coming thick and fast the league matches are more important than the Champions League ones as we already have 9 points so it’s really not worth risking more injuries to first team players.

Apparently it was the same day that Best died, 15 years later. If I was Gazza I'd be nervous every 25th November.

Well you know the world is being Fed-exed to hell in a hand cart. I really believe anyone thinking even thinking of bringing a child into the world is coldly considering an act of cruelty.
