If it's Luton it'll be a Wizzair flight, probably Bucharest so Romanian.

I came back in through there last week after working away for a bit and basically Luton is now just the gateway to Eastern Europe!

How's it all going in Russia? We don't hear much in the media and i probably wouldn't believe it anyway - are they locked down?

Happily I wasn't in Russia. Eastern Ukraine where there is a little bit of a spat with Putin's little green men.

Whatever shit we think we might be in here, there are places such as that which are sinking in deeper levels of shit that we can only imagine so I take any restrictions here in the context of it being far worse elsewhere with no real end in sight.

As someone who has family there: terribly. There's a reason we're not hearing about it.

You think it's a coincidence that as the pandemic comes to an end in this country the weather goes all shit? I think not.

Hopefully we'll be back to normal for next year's FA Cup.

Hope the SAGE guys update their pessimistic models now...

Good to see fans back in- and glad they've spread them out this time instead of confining them to a corner like they did for the league Cup final- atmosphere sounds much better

So if the vaccine 'works' against getting seriously ill even when contracting the Indian variant, why (m)any restrictions in the UK where the majority of the vulnerable have been jabbed?

I dont get the 1000 deaths a day and 10,000 hospital admissions they are pushing. It sounds absolutely ridiculous.

they are modelling it as though there is no vaccine or restrictions... fucking ridiculous.

When will we get an analysis of all the test events?

Not heard / seen anything about any of the music based ones a couple of weeks ago?

So selfish. 

As the vaccines are successful as preventing hospitalisations this will be true for any part of the country.

This is from that article. Government overruled SAGE

Whats our prediction for when they roll back the indoor pub reopening? I think 2 weeks, and it'll be 5-6 weeks from then that they'll be allowed to open again, whereas they could've delayed it now and avoided those extra weeks

They might update their models, but not in the way you mean...
