villa are saying
Pre-register your COVID status online in advance of arriving at the stadium - this is to declare you are symptom-free, hold a valid NHS COVID Pass or negative NHS COVID test result and understand you risk being refused entry if you cannot provide proof. Supporters will simply be asked to complete a pre-registration form which will be emailed to fans (lead bookers for group tickets) within 72 hours of matchday. This must be submitted prior to three hours before kick-off. Please ensure your email address and preferences are up-to-date.

Show your NHS COVID Pass or negative NHS COVID test result (within the previous 24 hours) at stadium checks.

How do you get a negative NHS test or a NHS covid pass?
Presume proof you're double jabbed is not enough now?

It's just an arse covering exercise in case they turn anybody away. It's not linked to your covid pass or anything.

Depends what proof you have. If it's on the NHS app yes, if it's the little card they give you after your jabs then no.

The cards at the vaccine centre are no good, you need the pass that you can get from the NHS App and I'd recommend downloading it into your phone wallet should there be no internet access at the ground.

You can also get a letter from NHS confirming you've been double/triple jabbed which should be accepted as proof.
As mentioned above it's those little credit card size light blue appointment cards for the jab that are not accepted.
Proof of negative test is for when you've taken a negative lateral flow test at home and notified NHS online, you then get text confirmation of the result back

Sorry for being thick, but how do I get this then?
I can understand now, why people say it will effect attendances. I've done all they've asked of me, yet I'm needing apps, passes, and stuff off line to continue with my every day business.
I'm garbage with technology, I'm not sure how those older with no clue or no smartphone etc get on.
I've got my receipt card and ID, I'm not sure why this isn't enough

I understand the frustration Macca, even for the tech savvy it’s frustrating
The reason the “receipt card” isn’t enough, even with your ID is that they can easily be faked. All that needs to happen is for somebody to have some blank cards and fill them in with correct name, but fake vaccination details

Assume this message is aimed at Villa supporters who will be registered with their club in the same way as we have Clarets Numbers linked to a the season ticket. Just show the C-19 pass from the NHS App which is proof of your vaccination status.

That's what I'd think.... A bit like Burnley's form, which needs a claret number, so no good for visiting fans

Do a lateral flow and the instructions will highlight how you get a pass for the game

Download the NHS App (not the COVID App) onto your phone
Sign in using your NHS number
You will see 'NHS COVID Pass' select that, choose domestic and it comes up on your phone with the option to download it into your phone wallet.

To get the proof of negative test, after you've done the test you go to this webpage
https://www.gov.uk/report-covid19-result and follow the instructions.
Takes a couple of minutes if you don't have an account. If you set an account up it takes about 30 seconds to register the test result after that.
You then get an email and text message to say the test is negative and you show that.

As long as they've signed in with your NHS number - the pass has your name and DOB showing along with a valid until date which is 30 days after the download.

It would be a breach of GDPR for Burnley to release these details

I know plenty of people who have done lateral flow tests that haven’t shown the same result as a PCR test. I had to upload photo ID to the app and it took a few hours for them to confirm my ID was ok.For some people this has been instant. I’d suggest anyone who wants this downloaded via the app does it well in advance of the match.

Are you referring to a negative lateral flow test or a vaccination record? If the former, the negative test must be 24/48 hours before the event.
If the latter, I'd guess it's to deal with the fact that the vaccines don't last forever and requirements can/will change, e.g. boosters added. The NHS App allows you to request a new pass whenever required and the new one again is valid for 1 month. It may be that a 4th jab will be required at some time, in addition to the earlier jabs, or even that there's a different type of vaccine required to handle a broader range of variants.

As above, the expiry of the Covid pass relates to the barcode and data privacy and protection - nothing to do with the vaccine itself

It's definitely the barcode that expires. Suggest you search for the NHS Covid app privacy notice and refer to GDPR if you want to know more detailed information.
