In a word, No.

Why not?

The dates given for the four stages of the relaxation of lockdown are bound to be extended sometime along the line due to the lack of observance and consequent slowing of the fall of the infection rate.
If that happens even for a few weeks, which is possible, it would take us beyond the end of the season.

All these vaccines are a waste of time then!

No they are certainly not a waste of time.. it is just a fact that it will take a long time before the under 50s are vaccinated which probably brings in the age group of the vast majority of football fans.

No chance this season.

Dates likely extended as suggested.

So called lockdowns were supposed to be a last resort to prevent hospitalisation and premature deaths, but they have now become the norm. Government does not want to screw this up and has become risk averse as a result. Disproportionate measures to risk will still be in place post vaccination of all the over 50s by end of March. So fully expect to see things slip further. So no footy this season with crowds

To be fair....it is what it is

Season is a write-off anyway as far as watching from ML is concerned

There is barely a risk for the U50s unless you have a serious underlying illness, in which case you protect yourself. (I'm over 50 and relatively high risk, but it is my risk to take!)

Id love it not to be so but I think there is next to no chance of fans being allowed in this season.  Schools are set to open more fully from the 8th March and with that, so the rate of infection will increase.  Anyone who tells you that children don’t carry the virus is simply wrong; while they are far more likely to be asymptomatic they do, nonetheless, carry it and can pass it on.  Whether/how we open schools is not the issue, however, the consequence of what will happen to the infection rate is inevitable.

I’ve had the  vaccine, however I’m not ready to mingle with anyone outside my bubble even with social distancing,
I don’t get why folks see the need to touch anyone be it elbows or fists . Why take the risk.
I am looking forward to golf starting again and of course, the obligatory haircut.
