Christ, imagine how long it'll take to get in the Steve Bull!

It will be if you're behind Papper whilst he explains " You're fooling yourself! We're living in a dictatorship! A self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working classes--------"

There’s tons of LFTs at work which we got given 12 months ago. I’m vaxxed so doesn’t matter with regards to getting in, but they don’t “expire” I don’t think so could just scan it and put negative I guess on the website. Or just put the fluid in it and carry it with me.

So all a bit pointless, but I don’t think they’ll do live checks anyway. Just isn’t really possible. Bad enough getting in already.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Yeah, I did my first LFT after Plague Kenny told me his news. But although you scan the QR code, you have to enter the result manually, you can put whatever you want in theory.

 

[Tredman]

You’d hope that the percentage of cunts who would fake it are quite low. But they’re probably around 52%.

This was my argument at my last employer, you had people there living from paycheque to paycheque and your relying on them telling you their results bearing in mind they cannot afford to be on the sick, what did they think would happen?

Exactly that. I very much doubt either that any QR codes will be read by a device. You could flash them any old code.

Exactly this, it isn't hard to fake it.

Just got back from the NEC, had to show vaccine or test proof....bit of a joke really, I just held my phone up, guy looked to see there was a QR code and just waved me through.....could have been anything

Ralf Ranick spoke to Paul Pogba about his fitness and Paul told him he's getting better and training hard as he spoke to Paul whilst he was on holiday in Dubai..

Went to a comedy gig in brum a few months ago and you had to test and there were literally hundreds who weren't aware and just did exactly as you stated. Scan put negative and don't even use the test, which makes the whole scheme a pointless waste of time.

Although you are correct, you state whether its positive or negative, you still need to scan the QR code on the test strip, and you can't do the same one twice, so did the venue have hundreds of tests available or did all these hundreds of people not know about the procedure but just happen to have test kits on them ?

Venue provided. It was a farce tbh, half the people there didn't have a clue as it wasn't communicated by the organiser so half tbe crowd were notified if they bought via ticketmaster but anyone who bought direct was clueless.

They basically handed the tests out to customers and stood there as said customers didn't even bother doing the tests. Weren't hiding it at all just blatant. Stood watching for about 20 mins as I had a smoke and just a steady line of people doing the same and about 20/25% actually bothering to do the test.

Manchester clubs are getting the gods on their sides this week. Firstly the armpit of Mou and now the BBC Micro computer used to draw the Champions League..

 

[leedswolf]

Arsenal have stripped Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang of the club captaincy after his "latest disciplinary breach".

 

[YoungWolf]

I think he went to visit his Mother (with their permission) but came back later than he agreed with the club?

 

[lemonjelly]

Aguero confirms his retirement. He was some fucking player to watch.

 

[jd1981]

Great finisher Aguero, loved watching him play for City.
Proved hard to replace at times for them to.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Burnley v Watford off cos Covid

 

[jd1981]

PL to be suspended after Sunday I reckon

 

[PuntsWolf]

London clubs are riddled. Burnley now 2 games behind and the weekends games have to got to be under threat.

As I put in the Corona thread. How many are not getting tested? It’s finding a high % of cases in football clubs due to enforced testing. So it’s probably much higher than reported in the community.
