    First game available for supporters to attend in person . Coupled with local lockdown restrictions, footfall in the city centre will be lesser on Sunday, rather than Saturday... .

    Well that's my guess for starters

    Can’t see any reason at all there will be no away fans there so what difference does it make

    In normal times I would fully have expected the game AWAY at Harrogate to be moved to 12 noon Sunday. I could see why North Yorkshire’s finest would not want bunches of Bradfordian piss heads / City “youth” parading around Harrogate town centre looking for trouble whilst Giles and Edmund are walking home from Polo training and Rupert is heading towards his piano lessons. Add to that you are more likely to come across masses of middle-aged to old aged wives spending (wasting) their rich husbands hard earned cash in some fancy vastly over priced clothes shop / nail painters / body massage places whilst looking down on these scruffy peasants from Bradford means it’ll be a volatile mix.

    But the home game? Seriously??

    If you don't have Sky or a ST you could buy a Skysports day pass for a tenner

    Doh! Of course it is. In my defence, I've been out of the country for so long that it's all a blur.

    So it's on Sky now? Great! Yes of course I have Sky. I've got them all. Remember I border Russia, and there's always a Jevgeni or Oleg flogging dodgy satellite dishes round here ;)
    *footnote. I've signed up for iFollow's season pass, so I get this as part of my 165€ subscription, so makes no difference really.

    Like the look of the new walk out jackets that will get their debut on Monday night. Only 30 produced, to be signed and auctioned off at the end of the season with all proceeds going to the Burns Unit and DarbyRimmer MND Foundation. Could be a nice collectors item if we have a good season, and potential to make a nice amount for two great charities.

    They were all over Bolton in 2nd half and couldn't score. They are an in your face team who work very hard which may get to some of ours who want time on the ball. But a win plus 3 Grimsby points once the EFL wake up will do us nicely.

    Good for them. They sound well run and well coached. But frankly, the idea that we’re even playing Harrogate Town in a League game, let alone nervous about the idea, should have everyone accountable for running this football club hanging their head in shame.

    We are your correct but that's through our own fault but to say we shouldn't be playing teams like Harrogate and Barrow is a bit disrespectful to those teams.

    What on earth we're we thinking giving year options to Donaldson and Ismail?

    Ridiculous. What are the police worried about, and what difference does it make playing Sunday?

    It's a league game, the first to POTENTIALLY allow admission of supporters, at Valley Parade, so I expect more than a thousand!!!
    Listed two of my guesses above. Nice to hear from the club for the actual reason

    Yes, I would think that's pretty much it. Nothing to do with away fans.

    This is why I thought it was pointless buying a season ticket. I think there will be spikes locally throughout Autumn and Winter and can see a fair proportion of home games being played behind closed doors
