I was hoping for an ifollow season ticket, allowing for the usual discount along with not having to pay £10 each time...and giving a much needed boost of money to the club from the % that ifollow give to clubs.
But what do I know?

So season ticket holders will be able to watch games through IFollow at no extra cost...but the club gets no revenue for this above the price already paid for the season ticket?
£10 IFollow match tickets are available to all, and around 70% of IFollows net revenue goes back to the club.....so thats what, £5 or £6 a game?
The family who might have paid £60 for match tickets can now sit round a laptop and watch the game and the club gets £6. Better than nothing, but just shows what a hit to clubs this is financially.

It is but there is no refund on your season ticket like last season if this horrible virus continues and all the games are behind closed doors! |

in reference to your post, and related somewhat.....did those who requested a refund for last season get anything? What about those who had bought tickets to away games such as Crewe and Cambridge....did they get a refund? I know the club said they wouldn't/couldn't do anything until the ticket office staff returned to work after furlough. |

Yes, Christine from the ticket office rang me about my refunds |

Did get away ticket refunds tbf, though they refunded me a Cambridge ticket short - and I felt I was being too stingy to ring them up!  |

Pompey have Flexi Tickets at £25, which is like a membership for season ticket holders from last season to be able to purchase their seats on a match by match basis if crowds are re-introduced: https://www.portsmouthfc.co.uk/tickets/season-tickets/ |

Now that looks like a great scheme. I am really not sure when we will be able to watch live football again, apparently you can now catch COVID twice, which pretty much ends the vaccine race? |

Am afraid Old Chum(  ) that is basically an unsubstantiated rumour plucked from an equally unreliable French source based on one person. Otherwise you would not have used 'apparently'. Best not to frighten the natives  All good fun though! |

Who knows, it’s all very bizarre, personally I don’t want to catch it once. |

I think your right, a vaccine is a red herring, never going to happen. It's all going to be down to management and bringing about mass rapid testing. The reason why, is that unless everybody in the world takes the same vaccine it's irrelevant. How do you know if somebody has taken the vaccine, a tattoo? Medical passport? Online checks? You cant take somebody's word for it. If I fly back for a big game, maybe have a stop over in Dubai on the way and sit next to you at the game, we score...bedlam. You've got Asian flu! China, Russia, USA they'll never agree to a universal vaccine. I do look worldwide as I have a hotel in Asia, so of course I'm following any announcements from airlines, IATA etc. It's imperative to their futures and millions of jobs they find some kind of solution fast. Confidence is the key here. Until you can almost "check and go" I cant see how there can be large crowds just turning up, even if that is simply down to peoples confidence. I know it's a totally different disease but they claimed they would create a vaccine for Aids forty years ago. The new normal could possibly be that you'll be checked before entering an airport, large event or any confined area with lots of people. Maybe full football grounds from now on will be members only or STH's having passed the clubs medical directive. Very shit but very possible. |

Sorry to keep this one going as it's way off topic, but a couple of points here need addressing. A significant number of vaccines are in stage 3 (final stage) trials. All of these are proven to illicit an immune response and in a couple of cases the scientists already know they are effective - the s3 trials are to prove safety as well as effectiveness. If they all got through, the UK already has enough doses on order to vaccinate everyone in the country plus change. Also, you don't need 'everyone in the world' to use 'the same' vaccine. You don't even need everyone in the world to use a vaccine at all. Get to something like 60-70% and herd immunity will do the rest. |
