    Fordy trying to exclude over 70's is silly, compounded by banning overweight people but the real killer in his list is banning cats! Felinist :)

    Mate its not discrimination...It's bloody data facts.

    Other countries have done this.

    It amazes me that over 70's want to ignore the bloody FACTS! It's not discrimination!

    The country wouldn't be in a bloody economical mess if Boris wasn't trying to people please. Think now he is realising his mistake

    You have to take him with a bigger pinch of salt than most posters all guesswork on his part, as whetherby says there is a 80 odd page EFL manual that clubs have got to sort before what could be classed as any sort of normal match experience can be put on, which in itself is costing the club big money.

    I believe your the poster who quoted "you didn't believe in facts" more BS than facts.

    He said that but didn't outline anything the club has to do.

    The bottom line he's more than likely cheesed off because Spain is on the quarantine list again.

    Seriously, mate just look at the covid death data and tell me the results from it?

    Oh and it's costing the club big money because they haven't improved the ground. You have been in them toilets..Come on mate. It's time we upgraded.

    Love you mate...

    Come on you will be back in Spain soon enough.

    Seriously, though yes you are correct I have jump on the very minor part of things and I fully understand it's going to cost clubs a hell of a lot of money to get fans back which is why i am saying INCREASE SEASON TICKET PRICES and Bradford City need to stop with this BRADFORD IS POOR is rubbish. Many fans on here will pay £200 pus for a season ticket. We need to cover the 100k to get matches on.

    If we are going to run at a loss to get 5k fans in then no point. The with the way this extremely poor government is running the country and covid can you trust them to not just do local lockdowns last minute(look at how they just added Spain to the quarantine list over night) which will cost the club an automatic loss.

    Oh and Rahic is an idiot mate(then again he must have signed a confidential agreement which makes me think what has Rupp something to hide because we haven't heard from Rachic at all. Rupp needs to step up or step out). I would love if you were on the board still. Bradford City need someone like you on the board. I would make serious changes to that board starting with kicking your mate Rhodes off.

    Not sure Jack will be attending again at Valley Parade, he sits several rows behind us and I didnt see him at more than a handful of home games last season, I hear his a poorly man.

    The restrictions will create a match day experience worse than Odsal in 1986.
    It’ll be grim with not much hope of any quality on the pitch either.
    I get most enjoyment from away games and that can’t happen next season.

    I would think some teams will allow away fans if it is financially worth it

    Without looking I don't know but someone on here might. Are there any clubs that don't regularly fill a third of their ground

    I assume the EFL document hasn't been made public. However, I assume that it is based upon the government's guidance document "Elite sport - return to competition: safe return of spectators", as well as probably the "Sports Ground Safety Authority" document posted above, both of which have been made public. I would, of course, expect the EFL document to be much more detailed and tailored to the EFL competition.

    A few bits that the government's guidance includes:

    Looking at those five points, then I would think that:-
    • Highly likely that the entrance would be restricted to Season Ticket holders, so no ‘purchase’ on the day. If there was greater capacity than tickets sold, then they could be posted out, so sales would have to end several days before the match.
    • The club would have to consider pre-match food/drink sales, but there should be enough space to accommodate those who want it. Food & drink away from the ground, would be the responsibility of the vendors.
    • I tend to arrive fairly late. There are small queues To get into VP. Marking areas out with two metre lines, on approach to the turnstiles should not be too difficult.
    • I anticipate that supporters current arrangements for car parking should be fine. I am only aware of one former supporter/poster who went to the game by bike.
    • In respect of going to the pub, I guess the footfall would be significantly reduced. Again the license holders would have to implement systems to comply with guidance/regulation. Not sure about the ‘one way’ travel restrictions, that should be something the council considers. For instance similar systems to the ones that are in place around transport hubs during the ‘rush hour’ and school starting times.

    Reading this location of fan will have to be taken in to consideration. In others word @Park bantam@Park bantam for example won't be able to attend. I think it WILL HAVE TO be radius (Bradford based and maybe, maybe Leeds/Halifax based only) and 100% season ticket sales only.

    Also only 6 people from 2 households.

    The club has to appoint a chief medial officer.

    A gate has to be open at all times

    It's not straight forward this for City at all.

    But it is no more complicated for City than the other clubs in the league

    A lot of clubs do local sales only anyway.

    Bradford City create their own problems. Keep on saying...Refund those that have paid already. What is the club waiting for?

    Are you claiming there are some clubs that refuse to sell season tickets to their fans if they have moved away from the town/city? If so please name one
