    I’m not interested in it at all but saw a bit there on the news.
    Capacity crowd, no social distancing, no masks and all cheering.
    If cricket can do crowds why not football?

    It's at 75% capacity, I believe. This is a pilot event - we all need to take a lateral flow test 24 hours before and sign a consent form, then they request that you take another type of test a few days later and be available for contact in any case. I imagine that the results from this will inform what's allowed to happen at other similar events.

    Why not RL either Ian ? Wembley holds 90,000 and it looks like there may be less then 20,000 for two finals but the Euros are having 44,000 apparently!!!!
