EURO 2020

UEFA EURO 2020

Newbies going tonight - Fully vaccinated word of warning about NHS app

I note the NHS app has changed and there is now a different screen image with the QR which says "Valid in England" and you no longer enter "Euros".

I strongly advise taking a screenshot of your NHS COVID Pass. If you approach from Wembley Park tube along Olympic Way then you'll need this on the first check, which is just after co-op and across the road before you go up the steps.

Against Germany an hour before kick-off many had problems accessing the NHS app and there was a big queue forming as people failed to access. 

The glance I have received so far for every game means a screenshot is fine for that first check. The second check is shortly afterwards and you must have your Euro2020 Tickets App open displaying your ticket and bluetooth ON. The steward will use a pen and the screen will go green if successful. Never had to show ID yet, but if you have ticket issues you might need ID. 

Entering the stadium is even easier after those two first checks. Ticket on phone into the gate slot and then the usual body checks. Wear a mask going through security. So far once on the concourse only a very few people wear a mask. 

Entry slots are advice only, though you are unlikely to be allowed into the stadium earlier than the time slot on your ticket.

Hope that helps someone!

Now let's do this tonight!

    The app changed sometime between the Croatia and Scotland game. The app update included the "Event Trials" and "Travel" QR code but I have not been asked for this. I scroll down to my Covid Records (all the tests and the record of vaccination) and show them that. I've never had a problem, but I do normally open the app before arriving at the first check, to avoid 4g not-spots.

    blogs: Ian Fenwick: England emerging for bright future

    I’m someone who is lucky enough work within the FA and the one thing I can say from my experience is that the future of English football is amazingly bright. Of course it’s not enough to always say that the things are going to be good in...

    blogs: Tim Vickery: Belo Horizonte a fair setting for England’s new beginnings

    Last time the World Cup came to Brazil, England went to the city of Belo Horizonte to be humiliated; it is the scene of that notorious 1-0 defeat to the United States. Perhaps humiliation is too strong a word this time. After all, England’s 2014 World Cup campaign has been marked by single goal defeats to former world champions, whereas back in 1950 the pride of the old First Division went down to what essentially...

    blogs: Graeme Le Saux: England can bounce back if they take a few risks

    After the disappointment of the last two games, it’s vital that England take risks against Costa Rica. We don’t need two holding midfielders, Roy Hodgson has to start Adam Lallana over Danny Welbeck and we should switch to three men at the back. There was a clear opportunity against Uruguay and Italy to go to a back three – it would have allowed us to put some of our inventive players into more creative...

    blogs: John Hemmingham: Let’s blow our own trumpet for once – come on England!

    I’m used to blowing my own trumpet but not when it comes to predictions – I think we’ll get a result against Uruguay, but I thought we’d beat Italy 4-0! You’ve got to be optimistic as an England fan, sometimes it’s blind optimism but if you do what we do you have to believe. I’ve been following England with the band for 18 years now and it has always been the same. Roy Hodgson...

    blogs: Tim Vickery: Uruguay may raise their game away from Fortaleza furnace

    In the build-up to the World Cup a Uruguayan company launched an imaginative advertising campaign. Draped in a sky blue sheet, the colour of Uruguay’s shorts, the ghost of 1950 wandered around Rio frightening the locals – no one ever here needs reminding that the last time the World Cup was held in Brazil, Uruguay walked off with the trophy. So there was an element of Brazilian joy at Uruguay’s humiliating...
