Few whispers out there that a few in the Premier Leage are concerned new lockdown measures could see fans banned again and the season suspended if the current cases continue to rise with the new variant.

Hopefully they are over reacting but ain't that a lovely thought...

In the Netherlands the stands have been empty again since a few weeks.

The restrictive rules in the Netherlands are extended until mid-January. This means people cannot host more than 4 people per day, no exceptions for Christmas. Oh dear, this will not go down well with my parents, who are still grumbling about last Christmas (I hate how quickly you can sound like a Wham song  :face_palm:  ).

 
Austria sending people to prisons that are not vaccinated, absolutely OTT.

Not going to end well.

Lot of hatred between those vaccinated and those not so in a few countries. If stuff like this starts happening can see there being a big problem.

Everytime a story about Aguero retiring comes up on Facebook messages flood in blaming the vaccine.

There is a lot of sports people getting cardiac problems now no-one is questioning the virus or vaccine publicly which is kind of strange as it is so topical.

Cardiac problems in footballers were there well before COVID-19 or the vaccine, in fact, there are cases of cardiac arrest while playing since the last century. And the amount of sh*t professional footballers take is quite high, I’d rather question that than a vaccine that’s saving millions off people.

 
The world has gone crazy and obsessive over covid. Fair enough when it first happened with no vaccines and big deaths..but now, it’s like they’ve gone mental over the power and control. 

 
I mean, Spurs and United have seen COVID cases rip through their squads in recent weeks which highlights such how contagious the virus still is.

The fixture list is already congested and constant postponements aren't really an option but we're seeing it already and it's not even winter yet.

This is before you even think about how having 50k people all using trains, buses etc to get to stadiums is basically the exact opposite of the advice being given about social distancing, avoiding large gatherings etc.

I completely agree that after 2 years we need to being our best to return to "normal" but at the same time we can't irresponsibly and blindly just charge headlong into situations that could make things worse further down the line.

Hopefully the push for booster jabs will help to avoid the need to stop fans attending games and to stop a situation where the league may need to be suspended.

Being an Austrian myself, I have to say this isn't really factual... Whereas the final law isn't out yet, the current draft intends a fine of 3600€ at most.

Also, linking wrong information with a reference to Hitler is extremely inappropriate, not to mention completely irrelevant. Godwin's law in full swing.
