    Its a definite possibility, they've move goalposts before so don't bank on them doing it again. But this time they can't have football clubs not knowing and then budgeting for the season ahead, its not fair. There's too much at stake with peoples livelyhoods on the line. Stadiums are opening up gradually all over the world and we should be no different.

    It won’t be moving the goalpost all these dates are conditional on the continued suppression of the virus

    Don't think the government cares about football mate. Even the possible opening up date doesn't benefit the EFL clubs.

    The government thinks football has too much money and can look after itself.

    Have you had your head in the sand for the last 12 months? You forgot about the government u-turns?

    It's not just based on infections is it?

    I think the point is we get to the date set out and if the data allows they proceed and is irreversible

    Unfortunately, this is the mistake the world health organisations and certain governments including ours around the world have made people believe.

    And this is why I couldn't put any season tickets on sale or spend anyone money until I see things fully opening up.

    So reading up on all this it up to 10k fans or a quarter of the stadium but which ever is lowest.

    So for us what's that 6k fans allowed in?

    How can we plan around that?

    Well if we get to Wembley we’re fine as we only have 9000 season ticket holders, the rest will have to make do with ifollow

    Never miss a trick do you, if things were back to normal 9,000 would make our club look pretty silly, I can't get what satisfaction you gain from your above comment.

    I suppose the only satisfaction is the possible justification of buying a season ticket for a season where the product hasn’t been fulfilled. Watching on TV is no substitute and it really feels like we’ve all had our pants pulled down, bent over and screwed.

    What's the alternative listening to Radio Leeds.

    Better hope for FGR, Salford or Morecambe and not Tranmere or Bolton.
    1000 tickets is more than enough for the first 3 especially if only offered to their season ticket holders

    The alternative is a refund and still listen on Radio Leeds. I’d have preferred the option of paying for ifollow rather than been told I had to have it as a fair replacement to what was paid for

    23 x £10 for all home games would leave you out of pocket, I have to be honest and say I hope there will be refunds for those who bought suite upgrades and have the choice of a refund.

    What about where a family of 4 have shelled out £600 and they all watch the same TV ? Is that good value?
