    I would have to agree from a temporary winter months perspective. Take last season for example, from say mid-November to mid-March when it was freezing outside while we were in lockdown, it not only helped get us through lockdown being able to watch every City game from home but it was also quite enjoyable being in the comfort of your own home watching the games. My personal highlight being Danny Rowe's equaliser in injury time at home to Bolton to keep our play-off push alive.

    That being said, I'd much rather everything was back to normal.

    The terms and conditions of the season ticket are that if games are behind closed doors or restricted capacity meaning fans can't attend then will find an alternative method to watch the match i.e. iFollow only then if they can't provide this you will be entitled to a pro-rata refund.

    Two things (if he does know)....

    1. Everybody has the right to make a decision on a vaccination, irrespective of the readers personal thoughts.

    2. Why is the Harrogate physio saying such things. These are personal decisions of our players, if true, and have absolutely nothing to do with him and cheap chat on social media. A physio working in the industry, should be exercising more discretionand acting more professional. IMO.

    The Harrogate physio is called Rachel Davis and there is no mention of anything she has said about the vaccine so struggling to believe that. Also I've seen the post on Facebook and it's originally from the T&A comments section so probably best to take that with a handful of salt

    Section 75 isn't it, we recently got our deposit back for our 50 Wedding Anniversary the hotel entered administration it took us 8 moths to get it back after threatening them with the small claims court.

    Section 75 makes the card company and the retailer jointly liable. If a business goes bust then obviously the card company foots the bill but If the retailer is still trading then they’ll have to foot the bill first. So in the case of using section 75 to get a refund from city, anyone doing this are taking money off the club they support in the same way as if the club gave them the refund directly,

    I was just pointing out it was a Section 75 not 78.

    Hope they have more luck "scoring" at home than they do on the pitch

    Might be. We had an issue with a hotel in seville booked through a third party site that went bust. The credit card company gave us it back inside two weeks. Maybe we were lucky.

    And is quite rightly the way to go if the club refuse a refund which they absolutely won't. The credit card company then recovers their loss from the retailer.

    Been to the ticket office and got my refund on Carlisle tickets in two minutes. People were there getting Harrogate refunds so you will get one for the table booked.

    Think I’ve misled you, I don’t have any table booked. I was speaking hypothetically if a group of 12 did want a refund.

    DMAC on twitter says they have 40 first team players and under 23s so for them to call off a game they need 27 covid/ unavailable players.

    Don't know how many we have in our squad, but if Staunton, Sikora etc al weren't out on loan this game would probably be on.

    City were clever by saying they couldn’t name a goalkeeper so irrelevant if we had a squad of 40

    Not sure that works as you can sign keepers on emergency loans

    Just read Sparks quoting that we will lose out on £100k of expected boxing day revenue, so highly unlikely that we have fudged the number of players affected to get this called off.
