    Talking of season tickets. I was reading an article at the weekend about how proud Irving Weaver was as chairman of Harrogate in their first game as a football league club on Saturday. He went onto mention that when he took the helm at Harrogate, they had 7 season ticket holders!

    If spare tickets do go on sale then i'd expect them to go on offer first to season ticket holders with tickets for the other part of the split. That said, would it be right to charge them again when you've effectively paid for a season ticket already? In a theoretical scenario if the current capacity is expanded i want to be able to see those games as part of my season ticket and not have to pay again.

    One last point on this. If the 18 to 30 years olds, don't start abiding by the rules, everyone could find themselves , unable to attend for quite a long time yet. No matter there age.

    I honestly don't care about the choices. I care about here and now...Boris Johnson is PM and he's a failure.

    Does't matter if you are blue, red, yellow or green..If you can't see this then you are a god damn idiot.

    The proposal was for a salary cap of .... wait for it .... <drum roll> ... £18 fecking million! And that wasn't even put to a vote 'cos they knew is wouldn't be passed. As you suggest, there's an enormous difference between those clubs who want to run on a sustainable basis, such as Rotherham and previously Burton, and those who are either in receipt of parachute payments or have enormous commerial income or owners with very, very deep pockets and who don't mind mind shelling out £10mill or so every season for just a channce of joining the PL. And without getting agreement with the clubs via a vote, the EFL don't have the wherewithal to impose a salary cap in the championship. I doubt anything will happen in the short term without other pressures being brought to bear.

    Not to make any sort of difference to our season ticket sales.
    If the figures are correct and were selling between 600/700 a day they are remarkable sales figures for what Bradford City fans have had to put up with recently.

    I think signing some players would drive sales not if we announce we’ve sold 6k . Anyone who buys a season Ticket on the back of the club saying we’ve sold X amount needs there heads shaking

    Theres a DCMS committee meeting on Monday exploring how arts and sporting venues can return to capacity WITHOUT social distancing. Here's the blurb from the agenda notes:

    "MPs will specifically consider how sporting events and live music performances can safely resume, including alternative plans to allow reopening of venues at capacity without social distancing. These include proposals for audience members to have to obtain negative Covid-19 test results to be admitted to live events and venues. The use of testing and digital ‘health passports’ to allow safe attendance at sporting events will also be examined."

    Theres a feeling within theatre at the minute that a uturn is coming and social distancing could be scrapped by November for theatres as long as other mitigation measures are in place. So I would feel quite confident that we should be able to have socially distanced football atleast by October.

    Also the trials at Cambridge upcoming should provide good evidence. It will all come down to the behaviour, compliance and largely restraint of the fans though.

    That has surpassed what I expected, so well done to all who bought one. Let's hope that supporters will be allowed back sometime next month with no serious spikes in the meantime delaying the return of limited capacity to begin with.

    I would imagine the majority of 'lost' season ticket holders, such as me, will gladly come back on board again for season 2021/2022, assuming Covid has been controlled and unlimited capacity is once again available.

    If you've bought a season ticket you get access to all 23 home games throughout the season regardless. The FAQs were very clear in that...

    No you bought it for 23 home games but government restrictions are stopping you seeing them all live. So the ifollow is there to ensure you see all 23
