  1. I don't rememeber Dowie ever scoring so I don't think I ever saw a celebration.
  2. One consequence of this new restricition is that it makes it more difficult for somebody else to use your season ticket.
  3. Yes, you can in theory and it has happened in a couple of cases but there is no denuying that if you have been fully vaccinated you are much less likely to catch the disease and hence less likely to pass it on. Andthis is the whole point of a mass vaccination proramme. Some people on here don't have any concept as to how these vaccines reduce transmission. For them they either work completely or they don'y work at all.
  4. Or an unjustified red card or two.
  5. I’m sure some lab in the Far East could create something better.
  6. Been around since 1866 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_injector
  7. Yes it will. Not 100% but much better than nothing. Are some people really are that simple?
  8. Are you saying that the unvaccinated might catch the vaccine from the vaccinated?
  9. True. Sometimes they die. It’s the period whilst they’re infectious that’s the problem. Surely the basics are obvious? If you’re unvaccinated then you’re much more likely to spread the disease than if you’re vaccinated.
  10. Nobody knows how many have already been infected. It’s the rate of increase that is open for debate.
  11. They can pass on the infection to those around them some of whom may well be unvaccinated themselves for whatever reason. Even those who are vaccinated are not fully protected and there are those people who are vulnerable through no fault of their own. In short, it would be very selfish and antisocial behaviour.
  12. The spread slows down as the population starts to become saturated.
  13. Out of interest, what is the difference between flu lockdowns and Covid lockdowns?
  14. Fair enough. Have a good evening.
  15. Then in that case don’t all lapped cars get given the opportunity to overtake the safety car?
  16. I didn’t realise that Palace were playing today. Does that help us?
  17. Actually it was five cars in between. From the BBC, ”In this case, only Norris, Alonso, Ocon, Leclerc and Vettel were allowed to overtake it - they were the cars between Hamilton and Verstappen. Ricciardo, Stroll and Schumacher were not..” Edit: And this, ”There is also this part of that article: "Unless clerk of the course considers the presence of the safety car is still necessary, once the last lapped car has passed the leader the safety car will return to the pits at the end of the following lap." There was no lap in between.”
  18. Except that is one thing that it wasn’t. I don’t have a dog in this race but wiping out an eleven second lead and clearing the five cars that were between the two contenders just strikes me as not right.
  19. How many cars were between Hamilton and Verstappen when the SC was brought out and how many were still there when the SC was withdrawn? Full restart on new tyres for the last few laps would have avoided the unsatisfactory finish.
  20. In the last lap? Surely the race positions should be maintained before and after the safety car?
  21. In that case the previous 52 laps are what counted. How can you wipeout an 11 seconds lead and then call it a fair race? Those 11 seconds were bought by not changing tyres. It smells very dodgy to me.
  22. But how can it be a race if the previous 57 laps are scrapped and the two leading cars are forced to start again alongside each other?
  23. Something not right there.
  24. Or since Spanish Flu mutated to something less virulent. Yes, about one century ago. It’s the way that all viruses mutate. If true that it’s milder then it is indeed good news and perhaps we should be encouraging the spread of it rather than imposing restrictions?
  25. I’m pissed and it’s not even against my team
