Arch Stanton Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Face coverings mandatory? In an open air stadia with limited attendance to easily enable social distancing, we STILL have to stand there for a couple of hours with a bloody mask on?? I’ll give it a miss. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too damn right my friend,I have to wear one nearly all of my shift at work,I'll be damned if I'm wearing one for the best part of the meeting,and I was looking forward to this as was going to stop over.as you say,why the hell make it mandatory outside,I've been to Scunthorpe for the last couple of meetings and they weren't mandatory there,ludicrous!

I’ve not been one of those “I’m not ever wearing a mask” people, I’ve stuck to the rules and masked up to go in to shops etc where we’re supposedly more at risk of spreading infection, I’ve travelled on a couple of trains and masked up (even though others on same train didn’t), but this I’m not having sorry. The stadium holds around 12 thousand people, they’re only letting in a limited amount of that to safely enable social distancing. We’ll be socially distancing OUTSIDE, and yet still have to wear a mask for the duration of the whole meeting other than when eating or drinking? This whole thing is now seriously wearing me down. I love a bit of Speedway, but not that much. Pity as I was looking forward to it. Edited September 8, 2020 by Arch Stanton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 (edited) Could take a water bottle, and sip from it,,, no mask whilst drinking. I'm sure plenty of people will take masks off once inside stadium Edited September 8, 2020 by Baldyman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure there’ll be some who’ll either disregard the rules completely, or find work arounds like you’ve just mentioned Baldy, but to be honest I can’t be arsed with the hassle. I can’t be the only one who has witnessed arguments in shops etc where a masked person is having a pop at a non mask wearer. Another issue, my eyesight has deteriorated in recent years and I now wear glasses. Has any other glasses wearer managed to find a way of wearing a damn mask without it steaming up your bloody glasses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also a glasses wearer,,, I'm also a motorbike rider,, so have used anti fog for years,,,, I put anti fog on the inside of my glasses,,,, works perfectly. Get down to your local motorbike dealer and get,,, Muc Off premium anti fog. Also I use a neck tube as my mask,,,so your breath tends to go out and not up, as they are nice and thin,, you can get those in bike dealer too Edited September 8, 2020 by Baldyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then that would be unfair on those riders who decide to miss the meeting , quite understandably , for employment reasons etc. and that is not normally the way it’s done anyway.

It is i think you will find the way it`s normally done- how else do you think they do them with a small number of entries ? Think you will find that entry to the international U 21 comps are also done from the U 21 British final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2ndbendbeerhut Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Ticket sales suspended.... Whoops... maybe someone not accounting for kids getting in free takes £20 from BSPA. Or someone not allocating tickets to each payment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
