It's Official!!: Europa League Thread

[Parkins left foot]

Did I miss any comms about Olympiakos tickets? Are they just being refunded, or is the club waiting to see it will be behind closed doors?

Haven't had anything yet so suspect that you have not missed anything - assume that they will be refunded as none of us are going to be allowed in.

 

[Kenny]

UEFA still think some fans may be allowed to watch games in August. So until they say its behind closed doors Wolves won't refund unless you ask.

I'll hope for this I paid for 4 tickets but I've long forgot that money, if we can't get in to watch with the season ticket money as well I'll not have that much to pay.
I was gonna stop going cus of VAR but I missed it so much thats never gonna happen.

 

[Tony Towner]

Can't see any fans in UK grounds in early August, especially for a one off game.

If there isn't a second spike post the pubs opening on July 4th I can see 1/4 - 1/3 being allowed in for the new season in September.

 

[Kenny]

Be amazed if we are back in the ground but until UEFA say no.

Poland letting 25% capacity in and France looking 5k max crowds for games (Cup comps not yet voided?).
Never try and 2nd guess what our Government will approve or decide to do.

HA! Imagine what Twitter would be like if Wolves went with either of those solutions!!! Johnny Comelately who hasn't been to a match in a decade, moaning that he can't get a ticket.

See the bloody R rate is shooting up in Germany. Hope UEFA have got a plan B...

Wouldn't worry too much just yet

"In another development in Germany, the reproduction number (R number) has risen sharply.

To contain the virus, it should be less than one - but over the last few days, that value has risen sharply and is now 2.88.

Officials say this does not necessarily mean Germany is seeing a second wave of infections. This sudden rise is mainly down to a number of localised outbreaks.

More than 1,300 workers at a meat-processing plant have tested positive for Covid-19. And in Berlin and the town of Göttingen, whole apartment blocks have been quarantined after residents were infected.

So far there’s no sign that Germany is seeing a second wave: because the country’s overall infection rate is low, these sudden local outbreaks have a big impact on the national R number.

They have so far been contained and don’t appear to be causing more infections. And 140 local authorities haven’t seen any new cases at all in the past seven days.

But the drastic measures to contain the outbreaks have a cost: people’s homes have been fenced off, with police preventing residents from going outside."

R rates back down well below 1 and as said above it really is less of an indicator when the overall infection numbers are low.

Hoping we get into the QF and play on the tuesday, as the moday is mrs jellys birthday.
she was smug as anything when the bowl season got cancelled, as I play in a league on mondays.
Am slightly concerned about having that conversation...

Wife's birthday is July 26th. As a special treat I took her to see Wolves vs Crusaders

Tuesday morning, Tim does podcast and gives information
Tuesday afternoon, Joe listens to podcast, regurgitates information as the E&S understands. Happens every week.

Guess & Star at their best!

That paper really is a rag! Grinds my gears we can't go to games but clowns like Judah are there.

 

[Pompey Wolf]

All of the information is an absolute given anyway. I thought I read somewhere they will announce everything re dates and venues for the round of 16s when the draws for the QFs and SFs are made on July 10. Which would make sense.

 

[Kenny]

Manchester City will have to play Real Madrid in Portugal for second leg if can’t host at Etihad, UEFA has confirmed.

I presume will be the same with Olympiakos but in Germany.

Guess it all depends on the Air Bridge from Greece being in place soon (Maybe Stanley can tell his Son to sort his shit out)

 

[YoungWolf]

So what will be the deal with away goals?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Doesn't matter as we don't concede any more.

 

[Tony Towner]

Presumably you are at 'home' in the neutral country

 

[YoungWolf]

Good point!

Guess so. I guess with likely no (or at best, very few) fans doesn't matter where the game is

The lack of travelling would be a small advantage I guess to have it at Molineux
