Quiet Man Posted December 21, 2020 Report Share Posted December 21, 2020 Does anybody know what happens if a team from Tier 1, 2 or 3 are drawn against a team in Tier 4? The reason that I ask is the winner of the Christchurch v Falmouth Town tie will be away to United Services Portsmouth who are in Tier 4. As I understand the new laws travel into or out of a Tier 4 area is prohibited unless essential. I can't see this being essential in the eyes of government so would US Portsmouth be awarded the tie as their opponents cannot turn up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldy Posted December 21, 2020 Report Share Posted December 21, 2020 I’m sure the FA will make every effort to save the Vase and the Trophy but I think Boris will stop them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baldy Posted December 21, 2020 Report Share Posted December 21, 2020 Can’t find it now but there was a photo of US Portsmouth’s stand on Saturday when still Tier 3 (no supporters). The Millbrook chairman was very concerned at the lack of Covid precautions. I have to say there were far more people in there than there should have been IMO.

The Millbrook chairman was very concerned at the lack of Covid precautions. I have to say there were far more people in there than there should have been IMO. There was a 200 capacity at victory stadium due to Covid rules with a 150 limit of supporters in the 500 seat main stand, Millbrook officials seated one end within a taped area, sadly there was no segregation so home supporters were sat within touching distance with no masks on. there were some covid measures in place but not in the stand as no seats were taped off for distancing, some supporters wore masks and had space but there should never be supporters allowed in at that tier level as completely unsafe even if just home supporters if they cared which some obviously didn't. the rest of the stand was busy as some local Pompey fans poured in to watch the game. as for the vile abuse on social media it was a mix of their players and supporters that was relentless through the night and very unpleasant as was the disgusting behaviour by their players at the final whistle which the officials are reporting on. that said they deserved to win the game as Brook weren't at their best so good luck to them in the next round if it ever gets played.

baldy Posted December 21, 2020 Report Share Posted December 21, 2020 OK. Seems they have somehow wangled 150 home supporters in Tier 3. Millbrook had a good run and are having a good stab in SWPL(E). Better be prepared to move up, oh no, don’t bother, another season voided is coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's bizarre and there was more like 300 in there Saturday it's been a great run in the vase but we move on back to business now and some league action 😃👍 baldy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheolderIgetthebetterIwas Posted December 22, 2020 Report Share Posted December 22, 2020 I see in the paper today there are questions being raised about teams travelling across tiers, FA cup in question and champions league and Europa cup. Somethings going to break by the looks of things! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruegel the Elder Posted December 22, 2020 Report Share Posted December 22, 2020 If the French won’t allow lorry drivers across the channel to collect supplies, what chance football players?

Richard Rundle Posted December 22, 2020 Report Share Posted December 22, 2020 It's going to come to a head pretty soon; one of the outstanding 3rd Round games is Deal Town v Binfield, both I believe now in Tier 4 areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
