    Should COVID-19 restrictions be lifted to the point where all season-ticket holders are able to be housed in the Utilita Energy Stadium at any one time (approximately 14,000), iFollow streaming passes could be revoked.

    iFollow passes will only remain part of this season-ticket package in lieu of supporters being able to attend all home fixtures.

    I want to renew but this half home games is putting me off.There will be times through the season where i won't be able to go even with a full ticket and i might only end up at 7 or 8 games. I know why its being done but not sure i can be arsed until the restrictions are over.

    Cheers. Well the Season Ticket Frequently Asked Questions say differently. Either one supercedes the other or City don't know what they're doing. ;)

    I've purchased my season ticket. The way I look at it, our 15th home match is scheduled to be played on 13 February 2021 so, at that point anyone paying £150 should have broken even; I'd be surprised if the restrictions have ended by then, if at all this season.

    As I can watch all 23 games on my computer regardless of having a claret or amber ticket, I think I will be getting one purely for that.

    As for the experience on match day, it sounds dull and bland and more like turning up to a lecture than an event to enjoy. I know hands are tied but I do not see us being able to attend games until November at the very earliest, as when the kids go back in September and the state of Bradford's handing of the virus this far, I have no doubt further lockdowns will be imposed and Bradford will be caught up in it all again.

    The club website's FAQ page seems to be broadly in line with what has been published previously in the Supporters Board minutes but they are not identical. For example, I couldn't find a reference to whether singing and chanting is allowed within the stadium in the club's FAQ although the SB says they are specifically precluded. Anybody know the club's real position on this rather than the SB's interpretation?

    I think it is the governments,not the clubs,position in regard to singing and chanting.In my understanding it is forbidden.

    But it goes against what the EFL annoy bc emery said which was Sky had agreed until Thu w limit went over 50% of capacity, unless that was just for Chanpionship

    Here's a silly question. Does anyone have an irrational preference to being placed in one of claret or amber. I have a real leaning towards claret, think it's a classier colour

    I hate to rely on a report which appeared in the Daily Mail, but here goes: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8652447/EFL-make-huge-deal-Sky-Sports-allow-clubs-three-divisions-stream-match.html
    The key sentences are:
    The first sentence clearly refers to the streaming of matches that are also live on TV.
    The second sentence is much more ambiguous.

    And it all depends on the accuracy of the Daily Mail article.

    This bit was interesting too. Does it mean as a "big" club we will have to share some of our income from streaming matches with the "smaller" clubs

    "The money raised by the streaming fees will be kept by whichever club sells the service in the Championship.
    A more complex revenue-sharing formula will be applied in League One and League Two due to the big disparity in clubs' respective fanbases".

    I've now found a reference to what the club says on singing, chanting etc. It's not in the FAQs which surprises me but bizarrely it is only in the new Supporters Code of Conduct which says ..

    "Take care when shouting, singing or celebrating" whatever that means. Does that mean shout quietly and don't sing out of tune and don't leap up and down if we score?

    It contrasts with what Sparks said at the Supporters Boeard meeting a few days ago whch was

    "Whilst masks, at the time of writing, do need to be worn in the outside areas of the stadium, there will be restrictions on chanting, shouting and music with safety messages displayed on the big screen"

    So what is it Ryan? Can the fans sing or chant during the game and celebrate when we score?

    From memory the club that sells the sub get 70%
    The EFL get a cut and the balance goes into a pots shared amongst all teams

    Not that silly really, I'm definately in the #teamclaret camp. Our pale blue is a tad wishy washy for me, and though amber is stronger, it seems a bit vulgar to me

    These guidelines make it almost pointless turning up, staying silent while a goal goes in. So you can sit in a social bubble with 2 households but you can't sing together. The more i read the more i'd rather wait for some sort of normality.

    Yes, I'll get amber now for sure! My more rational worry is that which side I get will be the one which sees no wins!
