Tweeted Andy Holt the same question this morning he came back with an answer straight away, saying he hopes that the delay and more vaccination will allow crowds back for the start. Hopefully he says the Ifollow option will be there so worst outcome it would be " free " to ticket holders, but he did say that when they do go on sale it will be made clear that it will be your choice to purchase as there will be no refund,s in the future, fair enough that but it quite obvious to me that nobody at football is sure we're we will stand on August 7th on capacity,s, or away fans.

doubt anyone in the government knows either. the worst thing that would happen would be the present reduced capacity scheme thats being used in the national league at the moment. went to the stockport v hartlepool game last sunday where the crowd was limited to 2,700 for somewhere with a 10,000 capacity. doubt that will be reduced but possibly increased at the outset without away fans.

Just get fans back in, Sootland had an estimated 20000+ fans in London without tickets for the game or the official fan zones, although against advice now that big proportion,s of the population have been jabbed and by July 19th every adult above 18 should have at least one dose there should be no more delay,s, or what,s the point of vaccines.

i fail to see anything wrong with fans in as long as they are distanced.

VALAIRIAN · 21-06-2021, 11:38

Agree mate, in a ground like ours, with the small number of home supporters especially

thereby comes another question. there seems to be groups of fans together then wide open spaces in the same stands. is this done on purpose or are fans just ignoring their seat numbers to sit together. had a fall out in the only live game i saw the other week where someone was sat in my seat and the ones around it. wether you agree with these restrictions or not if you are not willing to abide by em then they should stay away.

Maybe the groups of fans sat together are a family group. So no need to sit separatly? Just a thought? That 's what I assumed....

could be right, therefore why can,t they sell distanced tickets in the gaps after the initial ticket sales have been done. they will know where everyone will be seated by then. its the easy way out for them just having a certain percentage of fans being present or a strict ground limit.

I would have thought that after 16th August things will be better.

Most Clubs will ensure that all their staff have both jabs, so self isolation will not be required

yes, but will players who have contracted the virus even a minor one will be unable to be selected even if they are tested negative until a certain period of time as elapsed. a bit like the one with a head injury with possible concussion. if so then teams may be at a disadvantage from day 1.
