London: Coronavirus has affected the sports world to a great extent. Fans were not able to enjoy the matches at stadium. In view of increasing corona cases, new guidelines were issued on Monday in which London was moved to Tier 3 from Tier 2. Reacting to the guideline, Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has said that Premier League clubs that fall under the UK government's Tier 3 coronavirus guidelines should be trusted enough to manage the attendance of fans at matches.
Goal.com quoted Lampard as saying, "If some clubs can have them and some can't, we've seen I think already, I felt it on the pitch, the backing they give you and what it does to the game. I think that should be pretty level. He further added that he think he is not telling the government what to do but , we can control 2,000 fans coming into the stadium, if they are coming from within their tier or however you want to do that to keep things moving along.
Lampard's remark came as new guidelines were issued. According to this guideline, Chelsea would not be allowed to have fans enter the stadium in their Premier League clash against Wolves, Goal.com reported. Under the UK government guidelines, fans are not allowed to attend games in Tier 3 while those in Tier 1 and Tier 2 can welcome 4,000 and 2,000 spectators respectively.
