My fear is that this is going to be a fiasco and may well have implications on the forthcoming matches which those of us missing out on Weds evening will suffer....
Well done to CAST for endeavouring to indicate the problematical areas of the issue but sadly, I think the horse had already bolted.
However I lodged a claim that even without underlying conditions 70 plus are more vulnerable to Covid .
I have not yet received a reply. I did phone the club to opt out in the end. Never the less no e-mail. I was shocked by the club's initial response as it flies in the face of all government advice at this time.
Therefore, as you can't get a shielding letter you are saying the club are saying you have to go to the match.
You are suggesting the club are forcing you to attend by presumably forcibly removing you from your abode and taking you to The Valley.
Perhaps, it would be a good idea to check what you write before posting.
Just a suggestion.
I did check the e-mail again
It told me to produce evidence to opt out which considering the circumstances we are in , is unfair.
Like I say I suggest you check what you have written before you post, as many of your posts are incorrect, don't make sense etc.
Just trying to be helpful, I'm not telling you what to do.10 -

Only those who are high risk (clinically extremely vulnerable) like me and others on this forum would have them - loads of them - letters, texts and emails.

Rather a Basil Fawlty than a Victor Meldrew. Can't wait until Thursday morning when you start posting about the next allocation.
If you had read others posts as vigorously as mine you would know by now the club has allowed all o er 70's to opt out until the next government change, upon which we get the option again. Be grateful. We opt out . You get to go. I am safe and you get a chance to get Covided. So we are both happy3 -
You lot find anything to bicker about! 😂0

However, read mine - I am clinically extremely vulnerable and won't be going even if I could. I live in a Tier 3 area.
Get the feeling from your posts that you'll never be happy again.0 -

In the absence of said email should we worry that maybe for some administrative oversight (no criticism of anybody meant) we were not included in the ballot?

Apart from just the sheer relief and pleasure of getting out of the house, going over to SE7, getting to see the Valley again and under floodlights too, tomorrows match is hugely symbolic. It will be the first time in at least 8 years, probably more, that I have watched my team play without the backdrop of, at best, huge concern and dissatisfaction with the club's ownership and, at worst, being at war with them. Now I'm 100% behind the owner, 100% behind the manager AND 100% behind the team. So, I'll be on my own, maybe waving to a few scattered mates, no doubt freezing my nuts off, and not getting home to leafy Berkshire until around 12.30am - but it'll be magic. I'm as excited as a kid on Christmas Eve!26

But as a CAFC supporter I like to help those that need it.
Unfortunately, you will not be in the first wave of those to be vaccinated as you assert.
You are in the 4th of 11 categories.This interim ranking of priorities is a combination of clinical risk stratification and an age-based approach, which should optimise both targeting and deliverability. A provisional ranking of prioritisation for persons at-risk is set out below:
- older adults’ resident in a care home and care home workers[footnote 1]
- all those 80 years of age and over and health and social care workers[footnote 1]
- all those 75 years of age and over
- all those 70 years of age and over
- all those 65 years of age and over

Sounds like the club staff have done an excellent job in very difficult circumstances. Well done them.18

It used to be that you were told you were elite by way of wealth or title, but now it seems just living in Kent means you are now not even able to go & watch a football match. I suppose I'll just have to be satisfied exchanging my ST for CAFC cash & "purchase" my streaming ticket that way. Never thought i'd be a lower class of citizen than those living in Bermondsey.
Ho hum.
Perhaps some of you don't get my sense if humour or that I should start populating my posts with emojis...🤔🤭😛🙄4 -
As it goes I've not received any emails either yesterday or today. I usually get 2 or 3 per week from the club regarding tickets/streaming etc so I'm assuming that as I'm in tier 3 I wasn't put in the ballot, although as a pp has said, that wasn't what was originally communicated.
But, and let me make this very clear in case I get shouted down, I'm not moaning. The club have had a really big task on their hands & have done their best. Hats off to them to have got 2000 people to attend tomorrow.
One thing though - which I mentioned previously - I think there are more people in tier 3 or have told the club they are shielding or not interested than people think & until Kent aligns with London (either both 2 or 3) then those going tomorrow will probably be in line for tickets over the next 2 or 3 home games.1 -
There’s 90 seats left in the West, 36 in the East1

When the tiers are abolished for Xmas does that mean that the Tier 3 season ticket holders will get preference for the Boxing Day match ?4
