    I possibly think it’s because fans showed that no matter what restrictions you put in place it goes out of the window once fans get inside the place.

    Me too but a lot of people are very against testing to get into events so I wondered if they’d rather stick with 4/5k and not need one.

    20000 and huge swages of the upper tier were not even used. Most crammed into the lower tier.

    How’s that work. I’ll not put my name in the ballot for the semi so I can guarantee a final ticket. One that might not involve us.

    It should be test or jab, not both.

    If this is the case, shouldn't this be where Reds Reserved+ get the priority they bought into and which was marketed by the club!

    Isn’t that exactly what the ‘passport’ idea was that everyone shot down in flames?

    In my opinion, yes. It's this kind of thing that it was introduced for. Reserved+ should have all received tickets for the game yesterday too, if they wanted to go.

    I haven’t got one BTW, this isn't self interest.

    Not sure if the numbers stack up but it would seem fair to me that people who tried but didn’t get tickets for the home match and then reserved plus are prioritised for Wembley

    when we get there ….

    I have and didn't get to go but still think it should have been available to all season ticket holders without reserved plus getting first dibs.

    It hasn't been like that though. Take the FA Cup final for example. Anyone who has had at least one jab shouldn't have been made to have a swab test too. It should be take a vaccine for no more swab tests or if you don't want to take a vaccine have a swab. Still having to be tested when you've had even one jab will put some off having it as they will just stick to a test as and when needed.

    After everybody has had the opportunity to have both their vaccines, having had both vaccines should be a way out of having to have a test. Before that point, everyone should be tested if that's the requirements of an event imo.

    Went last night but don't think I would apply for the final if we turn it around. Lot of money and travelling for a below par experience. Think I'd rather watch it in the pub.

    No, it hasn’t been like that because everyone lost their mind as soon as it was suggested.

    Fair enough.

    Couldn’t agree less. But each to their own.
