    When Germany is testing at the same rate as the UK she can have an opinion.

    Don't make a big noise about countries having high rates when you're effectively hiding your own.

    They test over a million per day, about the same rate as us but with a marginal advantage over greater population size

    After all, none of the fans attending will be going home to Germany afterwards!

    To be honest, I have concerns about the number of fans they will be letting in...

    It’s no where near enough, it should be a FULL HOUSE.

    The entire country is nearly vaccinated, if we can’t move on now, we never will.

    I, worried but mainly on a financial front! It’s already cost me over £18 grand in lost work (pittance of help from the government) and if the numbers spike again it could very well cost me my house! But surely we should be in a position to move forward. As. You say, vaccines are at a great rate! Why the hell not!!

    Merkle would want more there if Germany were playing!!

    I’ve totally abandoned sticking to any kind of “rule” now.

    The masks are completely pointless, they are bordering on inhumane and only useful for polluting our planet and seas.

    The limited capacity venues are ridiculous, as soon as a goal is scored people celebrate and group together, making the social distancing void.

    I travelled to Gibraltar a few weeks ago, and despite being double vaccinated, I had to have 4 tests in 5 days, at my expense of course.

    Why are we still talking about a disease that had a 1% death rate, probably reduced to 0.01% since mass vaccination?

    It’s costing people like yourself your homes, people’s businesses, people’s freedom and enjoyment of life.

    I hope things work out for you mate.
