    Makes people shout to be heard.

    It's the same in the pubs.

    Apparently the third is a maximum but it could be as low as 17% depending on ground layout and space on concourses and facilities such as toilets. So that would be between 4-8k. On top of the risk assessment done by the club to set the figure each person would have to complete a personal risk assessment prior to attending.

    Sounds as though it could be fun sorting out

    Because you have to talk over it potentially spitting further

    Hence why all live music and bands are banned

    I know loads that haven't gone back to the pub.

    It's about the level of quality. We are a div 2 team - No away fans- no singing - massive queue to go to the toliets - wearing face masks.

    It won't be a fun experience for lower league fans.

    It makes decent non league football seem even more attractive.

    Think the best way would be sell ST at full price and as we have roughly 13k across the board you get to alternate games watch one miss one until we can go back fully. Those that are due to miss the next game get to watch free on iplayer where they have to put in their ST membership number to get the game.

    Sell season tickets as usual without a reserved seat with stewards allocating seats. Then use a booking system with first come first served online only. And hopefully those missing out can watch on I follow

    My guess is that there will be an increase in season tickets to make up for the shortfall of not selling the 12/13,000 I think 8,000/9,000 is about the maximum we will sell in light of the pandemic.

    Not people will need allocated seats to track people down.

    If you have to sit on your allocated seat on a train this will be one of the rules in footy for sure.

    I would imagine clubs are hating this. There cost to put on a match don’t change that much just because there are fewer people attending and actually the virus may even cause costs to go up as they will need more match day staff. So the same or greater costs but significantly less income coming in. I wouldn’t be surprised if they would prefer an empty stadium to one that’s between 17% and 33% full

    Imagine if it's government led and nothing to do with who renewed first or any of you pretending you're a more uber fan than anyone else?

    Absolute scenes, only eclipsed by @Loyalbantam@Loyalbantam not getting a Chelsea ticket.

    I cannot wait to step foot back in Valley Parade. Man.... remember coming over on the plane for the Orient game, then that got cancelled ahahaha, was gutted.

    No matter the capacity I'm aiming to be there ASAP. I miss the roar of the crowd on matchday.

    Reduced capacity will suck but hey ho we are Bradford City, we'll be just as loud with a third of us in the stadium... COME ON CIIIITYYY!!!!! :scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::D:D:D:OO:

    Apparently the obese, diabetics and the elderly will be asked to stay away so there will only be about 2000 City fans able to go.

    Failing that, I would adopt a no 'lounge pants' policy to shred the herd.
