The guide to attending matches has been published on the club website. The wearing of a face mask has been deemed to be necessary even when sitting in one's seat. This seems a little harsh given that the official line is only "advised" I can understand singing and shouting being discouraged as this is a prime aerosol risk for spreading the virus but will still be difficult to comply with given that this is such an emotive experience.
Just seems such a shame that we cannot yet enjoy ourselves properly.
And, excerpt from Gov.uk:
● Face coverings should be mandated indoors and in all covered communal / covered areas including on entry and in concourses, queues, toilets etc. Given the higher risk of transmission associated with singing and shouting, event organisers should remind spectators of this and strongly therefore encourage the use of face coverings in all outdoor spectator settings, including seats/standing points. They are mandatory in all indoor sports venues, in line with wider guidance on indoor spectator events. Singing and shouting is to be discouraged at indoor sports events.
