Rules will continue to change by the minute with nobody knowing what to do for the best...

 

And Brazil. Don't forget the excellent way they have handled it, even down to developing their own variant.

 

There is more risk of spread via supermarkets so surely those workers should be above teachers?

 

Sorry, Aleman, but I'd question this idea completely.

There are only two States that have completely lifted Coronavirus restrictions, Florida and Missouri - and Missouri has done so on a technicality, letting local governments determine the nature of restrictions after letting the state-wide order lapse.

Florida are the ONLY state that, from September, have legally barred local emergency rulings that might prevent a business opening - businesses only close at their own discretion. There is no requirement for mask wearing, and they have made it very difficult for the limiting of capacity at indoor venues - local authorities cannot force restaurants to operate at below 50% capacity, for example, and they need to make a special case focussed on economic impact for forcing anyone to operate below 100% capacity.

Florida is a massive outlier, and not at all like the other states - though you're right in that not all states are super strict, and there are plenty still allowing some kinds of crowds at sporting venues. Other than that, Florida is a really unusual example of how the US is handling Covid.

 

Sure is a cool dude. I liked him best when he was Danger Mouse's assistant

 

doesn’t stop the teachers getting it and spreading it to their homes either.

If teachers are being tested twice weekly I’m not sure what is gained by insisting on vaccinating them all

 

Surely not. If something like normal life isn't resumed within the next 3 months isn't restored (excluding international travel), it never will be.

 

It looks very likely that social distancing will continue for the foreseeable future. Therefore there is a limit on season tickets we can sell. Maybe this is a good time to increase the price to reduce the demand?

 

How callous, don't they know people are dying out there. Said someone somewhere.

 

No earlier than 21 June

• Remove all legal limits on social contact.
• Reopen the remaining closed settings and enable large events above the capacity restrictions (from no earlier than 17 May entry).

 

You just know that ain't gonna happen with Whitty and Vallance around

 

Had to laugh when one of the MPs said "yes, new Zealand have done well, but they're an island!!"

I suspect it will be one of those "well, I'm alright, Jack" scenarios, Park.

 

I think sales will just naturally drop, as they will likely do across most of the clubs, as there's no point spending £600-800 for duplicated passes for those living in the same household. It puts clubs in a difficult position as although they would like to be marketing tickets now in the new year, we are all at the mercy at the success of the vaccine roll out aren't we. We need it to be a success and we need restrictions to ease before we know we can get back to the matches.

Maybe it isn't going to be until later in the summer that clubs will release full ST details - mitigating circumstances this year and all. I think fans were prepared to buy STs to support their clubs this year - some households spending £600-800 etc even though they only needed one Ifollow pass - but next year I can't see many being prepared to do the same.

 

“SECURE YOUR SEAT TO SEE THE RETURN OF LIVE FOOTBALL TO THE INTERSONIC STADIUM”. Or along those lines.

 

I think Season Ticket prices will always remain low unless something drastic happened. If we went up to £300 we'd probably pull 6500 tops especially with the whole Covid-19 scenario where live games aren't a given.

We aren't a loyal fan base, we run on pure greed and success. Hence ST's dipped from 18.5k to 9k within a few seasons.

 

Be a good PR move of the owner to say if you backed us this season when you saw no football we will give you a season ticket for say 100 quid as a thank you for backing us?

I get they are cheap as chips but you’ve paid money for something which isn’t even a possibility currently

 

I'm not sure people in the current climate and situation are really up for paying any more for STs. Our season ticket sales top out the salary cap and leave surplus, the time to move the STs when we actually producing something good on the pitch.

I don't think we'll see an increase in the next few years at least.

 

At least for ourselves we are getting some value for money still. It would cost £230 to watch all the home games on ifollow so we still get an £80 saving (I know many like myself though who might've forked out for multiple STs but are in the same household).
Nearly every other club in this league and above are paying far more than £230 for a ST when they could've just done PAYG on iFollow instead. Sure there will be a few angry fans out there about it

 

Also the club gain as one of my sons wasn’t interested enough at the time to get a 25 year ticket, but he now comes regularly and pays the extra £125 for the suite on top of his season ticket price which he wouldn’t have done had I not got the suite access. I know another few people who bought the 25 year tickets and they now come with friends who have upgraded.
