The Aussie riders didnt when they got back over there.. And nor did the Aussie Open Tennis players.. And mainland Europe hasn't been impacted too severely with quarantining yet, but given the issues getting so many vaccinated, it soon surely will be.. No point getting every person at reasonable risk and above, vaccinated over here, (with vaccines remember that we only "think" work given how quick it was developed, and the way a virus mutates to stay 'alive') when someone can still come in from abroad and keep the virus (or a mutant one) within us..

Big financial differences between the two although high level team sports join a bubble and remain within it throughout travels etc. Individuals however will end up like the Tennis players in Aus at present i suspect. It could work if the same 7 riders rode for the same team in Poland, England and Sweden but as its all such a mish mash i fear all the Uk will see is UK based riders. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,018 Posted January 28, 2021 Correct me if I'm wrong but don't the football players get tested very reguarly (like every few days)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I get tested twice a week at my job in a special needs school. We have remained open throughout. Luckily i had my first jab yesterday as part of the process. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's already told us, seen today the thread he started on 23rd December about "The great reset" and 'the end of speedway'. Obviously didn't get the response required, so decided to try again on this thread when the opportunity arose! Apparently the husband of my niece also subscribes to this conspiracy (not the end of speedway bit, he's not a fan) and also is a believer in the U.S. being responsible for 9/11, the Royal family being reptile like aliens who drink infants blood and that the earth is flat! My brother-in-law is very concerned for his two young grand daughters! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are tested regularly plus football people’s travelling around Europe are usually flying on their own private planes - not on easyJet or ryanAir flights with Joe public. There is also currently a debate going on about moving Arsenal’s next match in Europe in Portugal from that county to avoid large isolation and quarantine upon their return. I know that Portugal is no longer on the travel list but it just shows that footballers still have to adhere to this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And in addition lower league football teams have been complaining about the cost of all these regular tests (and that's before you start crossing borders).

iris123 20,935 Posted February 2, 2021 I was wondering about this the other day, because when they talked about Tuchel going to Chelsea, they were wondering whether he had to quarantine. And it seems he didn't, as he was straight on the training ground and then at his first game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So basically he was allowed into the training ground and stadium but nowhere else 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
