Yep. I think that’s the key one. Plus how disappointed is Ralph to have fans back in SMS. 😉🤣

I’d like to know if they’ve been using this time with no fans to address the ridiculous queues in the concourse areas at half time. Surely they must be looking at alternative ways of serving fans to avoid cramming everyone into enormous queues. I would hope that current distancing measures are causing a serious rethink of all communal areas.

Thanks for all the suggestions, especially the extreme minority that were actually useful. 🤣 Will post a report later to encourage further ridicule and mirth. 😀😀🥰
