I see that Coventry, Warwickshire & Birmingham are all announced in tier 3 by the government today.

So it looks like we won't be attending any matches in the near future. Bad news!

I think it depends on how bored the authorities are or if they have been to the toilet to get rid of their bullshit

The whole system in the UK is a joke, replacing lockdown with lockdown for 80% of the country. I live in Copenhagen and it's a big city but the restrictions are nowhere as strict here. The blow back in 2021, economically is going to be huge and feel we will be looking back and saying "what the hell we were doing".

This is Bedworth and Nuneaton. Fucking weird spike ain't it, strange how it happens to be the week that the government have based their figures on.

All being reviewed on December 16th my money is on is being raised to tier 2 then. Doubt that will be in time to be allowed back to footie before Christmas but hopefully will happen early into in the New Year.

That spike was two weeks a go. You should work for the government as you have a knack of manipulating stats

What I dont get is if the Tiers are going to change every 2 weeks, how are clubs meant to organise things and putting matches on for fans? What if a match is due to fall on the 15th day and they will have no idea if fans can come in that day?

I doubt we’d be putting a game in anyway in these conditions

Same problem places like the Belgrade have. Get told they'll be allowed to open up with a socially distanced audience, book things in and sell tickets, get told they can't have anyone in.

That’s the week the nobs have based their stats on. I haven’t manipulated anything just shown the graph for the last month.
There’s the graph from the start. There’s absolutely no reason for that spike. The numbers went up by 3000 literally overnight

A ‘cluster’ of cases? One of the reasons the ZOE study was created was to help identify local clusters before the official data (or because the official testing didn’t work when ZOE was set up). Was there an outbreak at a factory or schools maybe? At a local level it doesn’t take ‘that’ many cases to cause a spike. In all the time I’ve used that app though the Birmingham data has never had such a sudden spike, even when the Unis returned and there were loads of cases , but maybe it’s larger population ‘hides’ a cluster to some degree.

FWIW I don’t think they looked at that level of detail, they took the rate across much bigger areas, and across the Midlands as a whole the rate was pretty bad. We’re all in it together remember

No big outbreaks at all. The one big change that I did see was they opened the Civic Hall for testing. Wonder if they got a sudden rush of positives seeing as people didn’t have to drive to the Ricoh that then made it look worse. This would’ve stabilised now that the facility has been open longer.

Don’t think it works like that with the ZOE data, in theory more testing should make their data more accurate as they tie the self-reported symptoms back to positive tests to give them an idea what proportion of the population are currently infected. More testing should mean a higher confidence in the estimate.

Apologies for the source (but they are quoting official data), but could it be to do with this:

Covid-19 hotspots emerging in Nuneaton and Bedworth

Some areas are showing increasingly high rates and cases

The Times says it’s unlikely that any tiers will get relaxed until the new year, let alone a fortnight. Apparently they want to see what the impact of the relaxed Christmas rules will be first.

And we all know the answer to that don't we, if the scientific calculations are to be believed.

If I knew I had to spend Christmas at home in exchange for a chance that we could move up a tier not long after, it would be a no-brainer for me. But looks like the desire to have a ‘normal’ Christmas no matter what has already won. I’m sure it makes sense to someone.

I seem to be the only member of both sides of my family that thinks it’s a dumb idea so what can you do? Either insist and be ‘that bloke’ (thanks dad) or get on with it and cross your fingers.

Anyway they want us all locked down in January to stop the riots when all the food and medicine gets stuck in the Republic of Kent and the penny finally drops.
