Players removing covid apps

Footballers in all four professional divisions have been removing the NHS Covid-19 app from their mobile phones ahead of next season - many doing so after encouragement from their clubs.

Annis the app is not fit for purpose, the criteria is that you have been within 2 metres of a infected person for 15 minutes. Well I had a ping to self isolate after i came back from shopping in M & S there was no way I was anywhere near anyone for 15 minutes as when I shop i keep well away from people and although I might have been close to someone there was no way it would have been for more that a minute or two. This was around the 14th July when the said it was pinging 1000's of people, I had 3 negative tests over a week all negative

100% agree with you Roger, My Daughter has told me how bad it is.

Bit late now. In 2 weeks there will be no need to self isolate if you get pinged and double jabbed anyway.
