Covid is still very prevalent in society, furlough has gone and I doubt we'll see further loans being offerred to clubs who's finances are extremely tight.

Players having to isolate no matter the size of their squad will still stretch resources unbelievably. I have very grave concerns that we'll see clubs go to the wall this season

simply because of all the costs involved with covid.

No chance. We will be back in lockdown sept/Oct

I think, like last season there will be a season completed.

Will all clubs complete? I don’t think so.

Will CFC complete? Yes, said more in hope than complete confidence.

Glad you've returned from your hiatus to cheers us all up Dave.

Bring me sunshine
In your smile
Bring me laughter
All the while
In this world where we live
There should be more happiness
So much joy you can give
To each brand new bright tomorrow........

Big game changer for all businesses and individuals is next month when isolation won't be as big a disruption as it is now.

It is a worry though, can't deny that but there has to come a time when life has to carry on and accept the situation
Other than being double jabbed, I cant see what more you can do to give yourself a chance of having a lifestyle that we took for granted pre covid.

You above all should know.

[Sammy Spireite]

Come august, as long as the players have had 2 jabs, they won't need to self isolate if they get 'pinged' will they?

Directly of Covid or 96 dead that tested positive for Covid, big difference.

The death rate for those where Covid was the only condition the patient had is very low, there have been other chronic conditions that have been the cause of death.

All stats can be manipulated to support an argument, the anti vaccs will cite patients that are double vaccinated being hospitalized as vindication for not having it, the pro side will say being admitted to hospital having suffered a stroke/heart attack/trauma etc whilst being double vaccinated proves nothing.

Infection rates are on the up as we all expected them to be with a relaxation of lockdown but I can't see that hospital admissions purely for Covid has increased by the same amount.

Anyway, not for debate, we want a full season and no more disruptions please.

I hope not, all that does is push the problem further down the road. What they need to do rather than furlough is spend that money on the hospitals, nurses, doctors and pro-active rather than reactive healthcare.

It might bring the cases down short term but as soon as life goes back to normal you get what you were avoiding.

We won’t. It will be vaccines and boosters and carry on

I think I read the government are considering no entry to a football match post September if you’ve not been vaccinated. Troubling times if true.

[Exharboroughspireite]

Problem is this government have proved time and time again that they u turn on a regular basis. What they say one week can easily be changed the next. One minister saying today you dont have to self isolate if pinged (which you don’t have to) and then number 10 saying you should. Nightclub u turns. PM self isolation u turn. The roadmap is irreversible - we now can’t rule out what will come in the autumn. The list goes on - these 4 are just from the last few days.

There is no point speculating about this because they have not got a clue and whatever they do say, can’t be trusted.

Crowds of 16000 or more being muted as the line in the sand so wouldn’t impact our games.

Why is that troubling?

Everyone will have been offered one.

You're right, we've all been offered a rushed through experimental vaccine, some are concerned and haven't taken it up.

Right or wrong, that's their informed decision/opinion which they're entitled to. The government indicating that they will impose restrictions to what the unvaccinated can do is, in my opinion a disgrace and an affront to free speech and democracy and choice.

Remember Blair not revealing if his newborn will be having the MMR vaccine that many believed was linked to autism?

Free country, free speech, free choice, my bottom.

[Spireite-Karl]

We need to except this, this is our life for years to come now. We're nearly at our peak with the vaccine roll out and yet the cases are still soaring. It's only the vaccines that are preventing a total meltdown of the NHS once again, so it shows want a good thing they are (so why wouldn't you?); though they aren't an end to this as we once thought. There will be new variants when we get a grip of the current ones etc, no more lockdowns, just lean to live with it and do your best to keep others safe, wear a mask ffs, is it really that hard to pop into a shop etc for ten minutes with a face covering? Yes it's hot, but for ffs NHS staff have to do long hard shifts, day in day out, week in week out with them on, what's ten minutes?? Selfish bounders that don't give a **** being totally frank! Let's all learn to live with it and look out for each other, not that difficult!

45 million plus people have had at least one vaccine and no signs of them turning to snarling zombies. Logic dictates that the vaccines seem to be safe.
Sometimes if people would look beyond the youtube conspiracy theories and see the facts as they are then maybe the country could start to move forward.
