@owlstalk Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Hillsborough is being touted as a potential Covid test centre It is understood that the testing centre would be put in place at the underpass beneath the South Stand, close to the player’s entrance, with patients arriving at the Penistone Road end of the ground and exiting via Leppings Lane. It is believed that the club are currently looking to see whether they can facilitate the centre. Patients would be asked to drive up to the centre and have their throats swabbed without leaving their car. Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeJayOne Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Surely Hillsborough Leisure Centre car park would be a better solution in the nearby vicinity? Or even Hillsborough College Car Park? Owlerton Stadium Car Park? Under the South Stand seems like one of the very worst options in the area, really. SHEFFIELD SHOP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually - open air is preferable so as to not enclose testers and patients with the virus. Hardly any of the COVID testing sites are under cover. Here's a few fairly local examples: SHEFFIELD SHOP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a Cat C test It costs £24.99 to be tested (£29.99 for non members) tickets not available on the day of the test, the test appointment must be purchased before entering and it is a contactless system in place. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
