As a woman, I can step aside, or step up my game... |

The very nice gentleman who sits next to me is 74 years young, healthy fit and slim and also a season ticket holder. If told he must not attend he says he is going to ask for a refund for the games he has to miss.

I like the idea of Roy being wheeled out in some kind of hermetically sealed pope mobile for matches.

Whilst I normally agree with you on most things I'm afraid that I don't this time as you are forgetting the fact that we have a large amount of terminally stupid people amongst the population. My wife is a nurse on a cardiac ward and a large proportion of her patients are morbidly obese and suffer from diabetes as well as other things. This doesn't stop them from stuffing themselves with chocolate saying that it doesn't matter as they will just take extra insulin

This doesn't stop them from stuffing themselves with chocolate saying that it doesn't matter as they will just take extra insulin I was referring specifically to attendance at PL football matches (the subject of the post) rather than any more general considerations. I'm sure that, even so, the poor decision making, to which you refer, is not limited to the over 70s.

I think Palace should offer a refund on the season ticket cost for anyone with existing medical reasons and anyone over 70 although it should still be their decision (and risk) if they want to attend. It can be a discount on their 2020/21 season ticket, should they ever come out.
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses. |
