Sturgeon has her levels and fans are allowed to return at level 1. Even this she dragged her heels on up north. When fans do return it will be in the hundreds at a time - the majority of us will be nowhere near a stadium this season. I'd imagine the earliest the centre belt will be getting near level 1 is post the roll out of a vaccine in the spring. Wouldn't feel safe until it does. Patience required. Stay safe.

Alfie Conn Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 I would go. 4k fans in our 62k stadium will make social distancing simple. That said, i have a feeling it would be our Corporate ST holders that get first crack at tickets due to their monetary value to the club. There was also talk that if you applied in one ballot and were succesful, you would be excluded from further ballots to try and ensure a fair distribution. Makes sense. I think we have aound 42k general admission and 8k corporate ST holders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleJambo Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 If London is in Tier 2 (as rumoured) we would get 2,000 at Palace. Club have said they would ballot season ticket holders. Those who didn't get a ticket for first game where fans are allowed would go into ballot for next game, and so on. Also rumoured that fans attending would have to wear facemasks, no singing or shouting, and bars at the ground would be closed. Must admit, I would think twice about applying for a ticket under those restrictions. Can't imagine there would be any atmosphere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upgotheheads Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Neil Doncaster wants an emergency meeting to address the crisis in Scottish football, I wonder who's pulling his strings. The crisis he created when he called the league, under pressure from we all know, who seems to have left him completely unscathed. Whatever we think of the lockdown you won't get me inside a football stadium this side of the vaccination programme being well underway. As far as I'm concerned I'm quite happy with what I've got as a S/T holder until the virus is well under control. Another big football related outbreak will set the game back for years and yet this moron is trying to follow the English Premier League down a risky path. Like I said, I wonder who's pulling his string(s)? PS to Mods, if the title's too strong feel free to change it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His name is Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 The problem for us and many other clubs, is that we won't make any extra money untill were allowed more fans in than we have season ticket holders as there will be no fans paying for tickets. It's likely to cost us money as it would require a large amount of stewarding to ensure social distancing etc. I think the best case scenario would be no restrictions come the start of next season.

Once I have the vaccine I expect to be able to attend with no problems Attendance subject to vaccine will make it easy In this life too many seem to have forgotten nothing was 100% prior to Covid but each to their own as long as I have taken the precautions to ensure I and others can be as safe as is possible If you do not wish to be vaccinated that's fine as long as you continue to follow the rules laid out but you cannot attend the match and that may mean for some not until at least next season by which time some sort of genuine control of the disease may well have resulted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nookie Bear Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 As usual, Doncaster works from the old firm downwards when this really requires a solution starting at the bottom. Never mind the top clubs who have sold ST's and have the money, he should be concentrating on easier progress like getting fans into the SPL1 and SPL2 clubs, and even the amateur/junior clubs that have really been hit. But even tha thas to depend on them not being in Tier 4. He just says stuff publicly expecting everyone to roll over and do as he (well, Lawell) says, but this is not the petrified world of Scottish Football, it is much bigger than that and it is controlled by someone who is not in thrall of the magic of ther old firm rivalry. In fact, she despises it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsenal have made It first come first served for fans that have paid some sort of extra subsidy, that sounds like it might be a scramble. I don’t think I would be desperate to go just now if we could, which will surely be Loyalty points driven from areas in tier 1 too. They were saying that clubs down south need 10k to break even, but surely if they’ve sold STs that’s not right unless every one of those people spend a lot of money.

Spellczech Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 It is interesting how political rather than scientific Covid has become. Boris ramping up the tiers yet allowing some people into stadia - no wonder people are confused. All the social media lies don't help. Public opinion is an hard thing to manage these days. Doncaster and Lawell trying to get the Scottish Govt to follow Boris' lead is quite comical though. Clearly they don't understand Sturgeon at all. Probably as she is one of those weird "woman" creatures similar to the ones that have appeared at Hearts and Partick who don't respect tradition and the status quo...

I agree but they already have a system in place that’s almost exactly the same as down South and has been in place for weeks before those in England will come into force. It just precludes the uglies from having fans in, as it would she adopted the same tiers as England. Ironically if they had got their moves to England they wouldn’t be allowed fans either 😆.
