Are you still going to the Liverpool match (if it happens)?

[Qwerty]

People have said it’s crazy to go on the coach with Covid numbers so high, even if wearing a mask. My kids are desperate to go.  I’m just wondering if many other people are going, or cancelling having originally planned to go. 

[adejo92]

We had to spend my daughters first Christmas In isolation last year due to all having Covid.

 

The thought of risking her second Christmas,  to watch 2 reserve teams battle it out, which could also be done on TV or via a stream, is a crazy idea for me.

 

I guess its all down to personal circumstances though isn't it.

 

There will always be the percentage that don't let covid worries dictate their life, and the others that would just continue as normal even if they did test positive.

Hopefully keeps the boring people out the away end.

Personal choice and all that, but this is a cup quarter final at Anfield...

[Filbert_Ross]

Each to their own.
 

Yep I'm going on a coach. 🙋🏻‍♂️
Looking forward to a great day out. 

[winteriscoming]

I’ve made the tough choice not to go. I wasn’t going in the first place but I think it’s the right thing to do. 

[tom27111]

I had to decide to get tickets for this, or Everton. I opted for Everton. 

 

The way things are right now, I'm happy that was called off, because I'd have seriously considered not going, despite disappointing my step-son.

 

I'd rather miss a football match than ruin Christmas. 

 

 

[The People's Hero]

No. The one home game I had pencilled in was Spurs and we all know what happened (when I was almost there).

 

Would love to go but fate is conspiring against me this season and not only in a footballing capacity sadly.

[Walshy5]

Not going to any matches until the worst of this latest covid wave has blown over. People's health, lively hoods and life are more important than any football match.

[grobyfox1990]

100% yeh. Im triple jabbed so that will help. I still have nightmares about how bitterly awful and depressing last Xmas was, not going to willingly give up another Xmas with family and friends 

[CosbehFox]

Yes. 
 

Looks like the decision will be taken out of our hands very soon and it could be a while before watching City live again.
 

I’m fortunate in the sense I am post COVID now for about three weeks, so in a better position than most for a period of time

Its comments like this that really anger me.

 

The fact that those choosing not to go have not once said anything negative about those choosing to go tells you everything you need to know.

[Guest worth_the_wait]

Covid will be with us for a long time.

 

How often do we get Quarter Finals at Anfield in front of 5500 away fans?

 

GO GO GO

 

Be loud and proud!

To be fair, someone said that people’s health, livelihoods and lives are more important than a football match, implying that those who go are being selfish. 

We will go if it’s allowed, because my kids are desperate to go, and they’ve both made massive sacrifices in the past 2 years. But I must confess to feeling uneasy about it myself.

Point taken but to just label those not going as boring is a pure unnecessary insult

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but it seems that people who are going aren't being slated, but that the people who aren't going are in the wrong.

 

You're allowed to go, so go nuts. I totally understand why people want to go.

 

But the people who are having second thoughts and are pulling out are doing it for the right reasons too.

 

They may have vulnerable relatives to see over xmas. Jobs that they can't afford to miss if they get sick. Young families to come home to.

 

There's no right or wrong and taking a step back because of covid shouldn't be a reason to think some people are any less of a fan.

 

If you're going, enjoy it and cheer us on for all of us.

 

If you've got tickets and decided not to go, fair play. Some things are more important, we'll see you when it's safe 

 

 

[SexyGammonFox]

I'm going.

 

Over the weekend I started to feel as though I'd be happy for it to be called off, but as others have said, it isn't very often that you get to take your kids to Anfield to watch a Q final - something that they will remember for the rest of their lives.

 

Whatever your take on all this, let's treat it as an occasion to come together, have a bit of fun and make some great memories. But take whatever precautions are necessary to protect our fellow leicesterians.

[K1FOX]

No ones criticising people for not going. Just saying it’s likely that the type of people who make our ends look like a Christmas pantomime will probably stay away. This is a positive for the rest of us and the players too

[tom27111]

Just out of interest, what type of fan is that?

 

And why is it beneficial to you and the team?

In my opinion many of those who just come to ‘sit and watch’ at away games will not turn up and that can only be good for an away end. Whether that’s you or not I don’t know and frankly don’t care. Come on the boys

Amazing. Being encouraged to live your life really angers you…

Alright Geordie ****in shore, we aren’t all as great as you. It obviously means more to you than us that just turn up and watch. Crack on lad, hope you have a great time on your own.

Come on strokesy liven up a bit. No one said it doesn’t mean anything to you, it just isn’t conducive to a good away end. Oh and I don’t think I’ll be on my own.

What a strange opinion.

 

Enjoy the game.
