Only a few games left. If the season finishes now during this peak, no way can the justify a ppg approach. Beyond this peak, we're into better weather and vaccines, so it won't be abandoned at all.

The peak could unfortunately last months though? Footballers are going to be way down the list of priorities to be vaccinated, so unlikely to get them before the end of the season. Only guesswork but players are going to be getting and passing on covid for a few months yet, and in greater numbers than now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence why an abandonment would occur sooner- they would be looking at the prospects. The Premier league have stated they have no plans even for a pause, so at the moment the idea of scrapping it seems remote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJG Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Only if we make the playoffs. Potential for 2nd leg. We could host 25% of us at Unibol. Final at Wembley capped at 10,000. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/56151863 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect things not to go according to plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF we got to play offs, fair to assume our 2nd leg would be away unless finished top 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyrotten Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Just pleased we can look forward to going to matches from August, and also looking like there'll be an atmosphere at the Euros - and we'll be able to go to pub to watch (presumably).

Why not? Some teams had home fans in this season, giving them an advantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that but that was a stage of the season when it was expected everyone would get a turn to have fans at some point, and they were routine league games. Play offs have to be treated differently surely, could end up going to Tranmere or Bradford with upto 10k home fans. (we'd all take that now of course).

embankment Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 When fans are allowed back , will attendances be on a par with Pre - Pandemic. Or will they all be rammed out. I think there will be an initial increase but it will soon reverse back to normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marple whites Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 For me, no crowds for the rest of the season, start again next year. how they hell would the ballot work for play off final tickets ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 If we end up in the P-O final and the ckub can't guarantee every ST holder a ticket, then they'd be better off not taking any. They'd run the risk of seriously alienating a large chunk of what has been very patient and loyal customer base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A simple draw from the pool would be fair; I'm sure those unsuccessful would be disappointed, but understanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
