    Coronavirus

    I think they may struggle with that due to Pfizer and Moderna now being the two main jabs used. The flu jab is an inactivated vaccine, similar to the AstraZeneca. Pfizer and Moderna are MrNA vaccines which are created in a lab and once injected teaches our cells to make a protein (same protein...

    The Car Thread

    Ordered a new car this week. I've had my Vauxhall Corsa for getting onto 7 years now but it's starting to cause me issues and cost me money. Had a lot of stuff done to it lately just to get it through its MOT, I've done a lot of miles in it granted but I've paid out almost 1k in it this year...

    Watford v Aston Villa Official Match Thread - Sat 14th - 3pm

    Have to say I wasn't entirely surprised by yesterday. We have had a terrible pre-season in reality. Games cancelled, not one opposition who would really test us. Coaches leaving. Losing our talisman when I'm not sure the club expected it. I think Bailey & Buendia were to be in addition to...

    Coronavirus

    I'm not too bad mate, cheers. The vaccinations certainly thwarted off serious symptoms. I had a bit of a tight chest, lost my taste and smell (which is back now) and felt tired but apart from that I've been pretty much alright.

    Coronavirus

    There was a Doctor on the tv this morning, all respect to her but she was saying how they've had to cancel urgent cancer operations because of the influx of covid patients in hospital. Now this is where I start to question wtf is going on. We talk about how we have this world class healthcare...

    Coronavirus

    Doubly vaccinated as of 3/3/21 and produced a positive lateral flow test tonight. I’ve been a bit sniffly and chest has been a bit tight today but I just put it down to hay fever but did a test to be sure. Also have lost sense of smell. Booked a PCR test for the morning.

    Coronavirus

    Is anything really going to change that much on July 19? No masks? Some will still decide to wear them in certain situations. I can guarantee we will be asked to wear them on public transport and within shops. There are a decent amount of people not even doing this now. Crowds at large scale...

    Football During Coronavirus Crisis

    I agree, I'm someone who also follows the rules and regulations that are set and there has been too many people not following rules BUT for me their still has to be a degree of logic behind the decisions being made. I'm not sure their is the logic there with this decision regarding masks when...

    Football During Coronavirus Crisis

    I get the people not being in their correct seats- that should have been better policed. It certainly was at Wembley on Saturday. But I still find it utterly bonkers their is a rule in place which goes against everything the science shows.

    Football During Coronavirus Crisis

    Football and any other large scale events were always going to be the tricky point due to the emotion and passion involved. The thing I have to question though is the mask wearing. Now, I'm not an anti mask person, or an Covid is fake person- im actually a Nurse in the NHS and have worked...

    Just wish we could put this on fast forward now. Tiresome.

    Aston Villa v Wolves Match Thread - Sat 6 March @ 5.30pm - Sky

    We are clearly going through our bad patch of the season. The positive is even when we are going through a bad patch we are still picking up some points along the way. I think losing Grealish of course affects big time. Would with any side with their best player. Especially if it's one who's...
