    I have this vision.

    30th May 2021.
    Playoff final at Wembley
    Bradford City v Bolton
    Eoin Doyle equalises sending the game to extra time.
    118 mins, with the game going to pens, the ball falls to the Don who smashes it into the roof of the net sending City up!

    He announces his retirement in the post match interview on the pitch whilst holding the trophy in front of 5,000 City fans

    Doyle won't be on the pitch in the 88th minute cos he will be stuck in Paudies back pocket.

    Max 10,000 crowds OR a quarter of the capacity, whichever is lowest, from 17th May.

    From 21st June it’s normal capacity crowd.

    That’s not guaranteed. I think there’s a reasonable chance it won’t happen.

    If it is 10,000 it will accommodate all those who purchased season tickets :whistle:.

    It won't.

    We'd only get 5000 tops. Probably less once they take out sponsors, player and club official tickets. Might be lucky to get 3000 given to ST holders.

    Just going by @bantamlad92@bantamlad92 comment, Max 10,000 crowds OR a quarter of the capacity, whichever is lowest, from 17th May.

    "Whichever is lowest".

    For Wembley that's the 10,000 figure quoted.

    That is a terrible guess. Easily get 8-9,000 ST holders

    So we have 9,000 or so season ticket holders that leave 1,000 for the taggers on.

    10,000 in total Bronco. I'm pretty certain whoever we play might want some tickets.

    Right I thought it was 10,000 for each team.

    Here's the simplest way I can put it.

    10,000 tickets, divided by the two clubs = 5000 tickets to each club.

    I mean, I'm no Carol Vorderman but even I can work out that 8 or 9000 doesn't really go into 5000.
