    You may be in the majority. I hope the Club realises that there will be a large number of supporters that will:
    1. decide that it will be better to sit out most or all of 20/21 (as far as attending VP is concerned); and
    2. want to retain their seats for future seasons; and
    3. want to still be able to watch the matches (iFollow).
    These people will be needed once things return to 'normal'.

    Football for most fans is about more than just the 90 minutes, although that is usually what determines our moods after! The whole match day can’t be replicated by simply sitting watching it on a stream. Going, with friends/family, possibly going out before or after you can’t replicate it, it’s something many supposed football fans who are fans through Sky will never understand. I’d have never have got interested in football if I wasn’t taken to live games as a child.

    The club can not win. No statements when other clubs are putting out similar and people complain, club put out what details they have and people complain

    I don’t think most will tbf. Having a team creates extra excitement in sport, neutrality is often bland.

    It is simple and it's relatively clear. It just doesn't account for every possible scenario at the moment.

    Seems to be a common problem in the world at the moment. Nobody will just accept a general idea and await some details, everyone just jumps in with "that doesn't fit my particular situation therefore it's not clear"

    You pay £150 for half a season. More details to follow. No rush though because they're not even on sale yet.

    I don’t understand what the issue of Man City spending big has anything to do with us and our league?
    They receive around 100 million give or take In tv money every season. If they get past Real Madrid they will be on to make 40 million just from the champions league. All that is before we have even taken into account merchandise and ticket sales etc.
    The club is absolutely loaded and now just raised 50 million by selling Sane and you’re crying about them spending 60 million? Doesn’t even make sense.

    it’s not their responsibility we wasted nearly 3.5 million in a dire squad in league one. Then around a further 2 million last season in this league. We received a club changing amount from Mcburnie who wasn’t even our player hardly and it’s all wasted. Do we ask Man City for that back too? We need to get our dire house in order before we complain about the boys at the top spending.

    I don't get how any City fan could cast aside their club and watch Premiership/Championship football as an alternative.
    Good job were all different.

    That's how weak this club is pandering to the weak Bradford people just because there's a bit of flu flying about people don't want to turn up but want their seats saving for a year.... How did I do @Fordy117@Fordy117 saved you a bit of posting time there :thumbup::thumbup:

    so reading the agreement on the i follow match screening. The money raised from this ,goes directly to the individual club for what they sell in the championship. But in leagues one and two , goes into a pot to be shared between all the clubs, if i am reading it correctly. The smaller clubs , must be falling about with laughter, not only do we have a salary cap , reducing the spending power of clubs with greater turnover ,but they also get a piece of income from tv match sales.
    Are these new rules being written by the owners of Accrington, Morecambe etc.

    I thought I had read that fans who had a season ticket for 19/20 season will be able to renew their usual seats for 21/22, irrespective of whether they buy one this coming season?

    Its called supporting your club, are you really a Bradford City fan.
    You're correct about your seat being reserved for the 2021/22 season.

    If by some miracle we ever get to the championship then it's time for fans to stump up the cash for a product that would be worth a premium against the likes of Sheffield Wednesday, Forest, Derby, etc. The whole reason it was practically given away was nothing to do with a moral stance on affordable football, it was because the product on show couldn't literally be given away and the Bradford public had had enough. It was a last throw of the dice. If you think charging £150 in the championship when everyone else is at least double that then you're wrong.

    A family of 4 ain't gonna stump up £600 on the off chance they can watch live football in this day and age

    At worst they can pay £150 and all watch together on ifollow or at best get a TV box for £80 per year and watch all the matches and sky sports etc

    I think a lot will wait until they are allowed in the ground before buying a season ticket for all the family

    If people think that households are going to pay £100 -150 on Ifollow then dream on.

    Getting a season ticket to watch games live is different. To pay 150 for tv plus Sky Sports, plus BT Sports, plus Netfleix, Plus Amazon Prime, plus Disney Plus ....Kidding yourselves...Not happening!!

    Agree with both Wilsden and Idlebantams comments sport is more than just watching it on tv . I went to the cricket on Saturday Keighley v Baildon. Quit a good setup people keeping at a distance one at a time being served at the bar . The point being is it was good to get out meet up with mates and watch a sport. The general view from City fans I know is that they would rather wait until things are sorted and we get back to Valley Parade rather than watching on tv behind locked gates. Good game of cricket

    The virus has created a lot of scenarios that are unique, a couple of which you have mentioned. As Dennis alluded to, the club need to bring out a clear and concise set of rules governing what is happeneing regarding the limited attendance which i think is 7,000. If for some reason those rules cause fans a problem or an inconvenience then i suggest its best for this coming season that they don't go. Better than ending with endless questions of why can't i do this or sit with so and so. At this time the containing of the virus trumps any complaints that some may have regarding the new ground rules.
