    Good shout. A nice angle and good PR.

    Are we using the count system of those actually there or tickets sold this year?

    Well, I have a season ticket as I have had for the last 26 years. I am still not sure if I am showing up on 14th August.

    I am fully vaccinated but classed as vulnerable to Covid because of medical conditions and age.

    I don't intend to become a hermit, but if the current rates of infection continue as they are I might hold off my return to Valley Parade for a little while.

    I am sure I won't be alone in doing the same.

    Although smallish in number I suspect those been admitted to hospital or dying are from the clinically vulnerable group with medical conditions and elderly, If you are in this group I think it is wise to give games a miss for awhile yet, Stay Safe :thumbup:

    Even when their fans are at war with the owners?

    Not sure of the extent of their "war" Roger, but given the vast majority of the money they would pay for a ticket would go direct to City, maybe they would see it as a good chance to watch their team without over profiting the ownership.

    Our fans travelled well, especially to a local match, with the Rahic scenario...

    As did the Blackpool fans with their protest against Oyston, refusing to give any money via home games yet traveled away to support their club/team.

    Talking to a Oldham fan he reckons anywhere between 1500-1800 will travel. Fans are boycotting home games.

    Hope Oldham bring a glut of fans, I cannot wait to get back to live football.

    Watching the scenes at Wembley right now, thinking back to Grimsby just a month b4 lockdown, does nothing but whet the appetite for football.

    I'm back from a barging holiday at 10am on the day of the game and whilst they'll be a sadness to the ending of a holiday, the start of a new football season beckons brings a smile to my face.

    I have a couple of friends who are Oldham Season Ticket holders. They are totally disillusioned with their owner. Another one who ‘knows football’. I would worry that the club could go the way of Bury. Yes the fans are right to voice their dissatisfaction, but by boycotting the club, which has been in a financially parlous state, could see them going into meltdown.

    a lot of times fans will travel to away games if they have fallen out with the owner. Support the team and not the owner

    Good theme Rod. Bury ground for sale although Bury FC beat Thackley yesterday so look as though reformed. As to the others I don't disagree. Think Oldham, Scunny and Swindon are all in danger to various degrees.

    Normal years yes, Covid travel restrictions will hit that, despite whatever the Sex Yeti says today.
