All very quite at the moment just wondering are fans going to be buying season tickets, are we going to be travelling to away games, bloody hope so
If we all stay in uk this year imo it should be possible
but if people want to go to magaluff etc for a fornight they may bring new variants back
and we could all be locked down again for months
Just for one year give up abroad and we can carry on with going to the pubs shops footie and generally mixing can't people who want to go abroad see this i would much rather go to footie all season if it meant forgoing 2 weeks in the sun
find somewhere in the uk to go on hols.

I get, and to a degree agree with what you say, but for a family of four to stay at butlins for 2 weeks in august(a chance of good weather!) Is costing around 4k!!!

People will go away as soon as permitted, its just the way it is I'm sorry.

Looking at it though, not many countries on green list, will limit it somewhat, with having to quarantine if the country you go to, is amber, and a lot more expensive if its red! And people need to look back and think of those that went to portugal(as it was deemed safe!) And its status changed whilst they were there already? My niece and family got caught out.
There are no guarantees the same couldn't/wouldn't happen again?

Thus an amber country(with currently a 10 day st home quarantine rule in place) could change to red, and add a further few grand to quarantine at hotel!!
For me, this year I'm getting to the stage of not being too bothered about going away, its the friends I have there I miss most, not the sun etc.(although it does help) but not prepared to risk it currently, things could change by august, but its a guessing game at best.

I am probably more lucky than a lot have been motorhoming for 20 years but do go abroad also but its scotland tour this year which i enjoy anyway
People families could try caravans camping for a change draw the line at BUTLINS though .

At the start of next season it’s likely to be Season Ticket holders only, in my opinion.

And I agree that the only way to avoid another crisis/lockdown next winter is to stop all foreign holiday travel this summer.

I think crowds will be right up there next year tbh the way its all looking... away games may be a tad more problematic.

As for the other post about travel outside UK - nothing to do with it! I have travel in my blood and work, so I will most definitely be going. Magaluf however - no Id rather chew my own kneecaps! But I will be travelling once allowed to do so

If we have a crisis this winter then that means the vaccines have not worked. If they don't work and we are still doing lockdowns then they will never ever stop.
