    It’s pointless because of the numbers involved IMO. I expect the majority of those who have had 1 jab to get their second. That would leave around 9% of over 18s not fully vaccinated. I’d expect a very small % of that to be attending a large scale event >10k. Of that small % the chances of them having and passing the virus on is even smaller again.

    We are talking tiny numbers here for such a big operational change for clubs etc.

    That to me is pointless.
    Conversely, I’d expect a fairly large percentage of the unvaxxed to be planning on going to the football. There’s only 9% of the eligible population unvaxxed but I’d be surprised if it’s not a lot more than 9% of the overall crowd at a football match.

    The demographics of a football crowd are overwhelmingly men, a lot of them in the age groups that have lower uptake. On top of that, football fans I would suggest are proportionately more likely to be anti establishment and for want of a better way to describe it, probably carry more than our fair share of idiots.

    If you’re looking for a place where the unvaxxed are going to congregate then imo football will be one of the highest proportionately.
