One of the new clauses in the North East local lockdown restrictions. Not looking good for the return of football in 2 weeks time. And in most areas of the North East the infection rates are lower than Greater Manchester. |  | | |  |

Doesn't it say "grassroots sporting event", meaning those without all the covid controls and restrictions? |  |
| Maestro? No.
Elite? No.
Heavyweight poster? No.
Able to be rational and not over-react to individual results? Yes. |

Interestingly last night the thought was that it would be sporting events, then earlier today a bbc article said grassroots and included semi-professional.
Now it’s this:
“ People should not spectate at any grassroots sport or play sport in the restricted areas.”
They’re obviously changing their minds regularly. Just for a change. You’d think, it’s exactly your point about the Covid precautions that are in place - eg. Local football just won’t be working effectively, with kids teams/pub sides. Yet other places could put things in place. One noticeable aspect of Bury’s new club is that although they are restricted to numbers attending, there are pictures of fans standing where they like rather than designated spots; something clubs at that level need to get right.
Chances for Dale v Fleetwood being open to fans? Stopped trying to predict now, the goalposts shift so much. |  |

The exact wording in the Chronicle tonight includes...
You should also not attend any sporting events, professional or semi-pro, as a spectator either. | | | |

Having checked gov.uk guidance, it hasn’t been updated yet with the specifics for the NE. This isn’t unusual and you get this situation where various reports/interpretations occur between the announcement and the info appearing in black and white. | |

Cheers.
It seems to contradict what the BBC say.
There's so much inconsistency around. | |

There's a higher chance and more common sense approach of a complete lockdown for 2 weeks.... obviously watching the football and Joe publics restrictions aren't remotely linked | | | |
