How do you prove you’ve had both vaccines? I’ve had both jabs but don’t know how to prove it. 

It’s on your NHS app

I believe so. It has what vaccine you’ve had, the date and batch numbers. It’s on the app once you’ve signed up to it

You can then download a QR code that presumably says that you’re double jabbed ! 

Thanks. A lot easier on my phone, less likely to lose it.

I’ve just checked out the code I generated last month and it says it ‘expires 21 aug’ ……. Bit odd 

The QR codes are for events (? Test events) or international travel. I presume once the code expires you’ll be able to download a new one or just show your record of vaccine on the app 👍

Man City still under PL investigation for FFP.

Andros Townsend is bang average but he's not a starter. If they can shift clowns like Bernard and Iwobi he's certainly no worse than either and likely on less £££. Bernard in particular has absolutely reeked of Chinese Super League since the moment he came through the door.

Presumably you generated it on the 21st and it has a shelf life of 2 months before you need to generate a fresh one. Afaik that's actually quite a long time for an individual code to remain valid, at work we deal with ones that expire and need refreshing after about 10 minutes!  I'd imagine expiration time is arbitrary based on the relevant variables of the use-case.

What prospective owner doesn't say "want to turn (insert name) into a major force"

 

I would always be suspicious of a "group of investors" as they are usually just that, in it for making a profit for themselves. 

 

No doubt WH fans will be excited by this rumour though. West Ham overachieved last season and I can see them back in the midtable mix this time round

I think Rafa is just trying to stitch Everton up seeing as none of their fans can stand him.

 

If you'd just moved, and after polite introductions the whole neighborhood was calling you "the fat Kopite” behind your back, would you be inclined to do nice things for them?

These new investers will firstly asset strip the club to pay back the loan and then also take millions for themselves as we have seen with clubs like Man Utd and what's happening now with clubs like Burnley under American owners, it's all about making money.. millions for themselves and US investors see the UK as soft targets for takeovers

Aside from Mike Ashley, West Ham must have the worst owners in football. 

 

The incoming group of investors couldn't be any worse than what they already have.

True although the last club to be taken over by investors was Burnley and they purchased the club by the club itself lending them the money.

 

I'd be very wary of "investors" 

 

The dildo brothers are awful though! 

Thank the lord for Top!

This is going to happen a lot of the next few weeks. Wouldn’t be at all surprised to see a game called off on the opening weekend

Unless pro football is going to be granted exception from self isolation, the first few weeks of the season could be a sh1tshow ….we could isolate the squad at seagrave if necessary but very few clubs have that option

This is shocking news, on top of the bouts of chronic delusion suffered by Arteta, Edu and the staff of AFCTV.   Get well soon all.

In football?! Nope, not for me - not even remotely close, actually. They're a bit weird and the stadium move hasn't turned out well but there was at the very least logic behind it and West Ham do actually spend.

 

Derby, Oldham, Hull, Cov and Wednesday (there's no doubt more) would swap owners with West Ham in a heartbeat, I'm sure. Macclesfield and Bury would've too...

Disgraceful from the Sun - hope Delph takes them to the cleaners and the courts relish it because they are jeopardising an existing case

Our tabloids are disgusting. 

[Guest ttfn]

On Delph, I just saw he’s self isolating so has to miss Everton’s US tour.

 

Why the **** are Everton going on tour to America in the middle of a pandemic?!

Haven't you realised that the pandemic doesn't apply to sports?

Sadly legally they’ll be fine. They’ve made it clear Delph’s not guilty but it’s shity and they’ve only done it because they can’t print the story they want to print.

 

It’s entirely for their own benefit. They’re using Delph to make what for them is a political point about being banned from naming the individual while it’s freely available online.

 

Terrible they’re using an innocent man for their own gain and there’s far more important stories to be leading on.
