Fans back in stadiums

Post by Barron »

So Boris is saying October we be back at Elland Road watching Premiership football :thumbup:

With the 20-30% seat allocation... do wonder if it'll be lucky dip or whether season ticket holders get priority..

Welcome :wave:

Season tickets holders will rightly get priority but we have more than 30% of the stadium so will be some form of lucky dip among them I suspect.

Cheers guys... Good to be here. long to reader first time poster etc...

So basically no season ticket - no games. Hopefully the club will do something about reimbursing those who miss out...

Suppose in theory it will be around two thirds of season ticket holders so perhaps some sort of rota where they all get two out of every three games.

Only speculating so will be interesting to see what they do.

Welcome to the forum mate.

As I understand it, a seat will be occupied then two seats spare and so on. Fans from the same household will be allowed to sit together, then the two seats spare again. It’ll be a lucky dip between ST holders as to which game you get, so looks like it’s tough for groups who meet up before games (like our bunch of ST holders do).

Obviously it’s not ideal, but as a ST holder for many years I’ll take whatever we can get at the moment.

Hi Barron welcome to the forum :wave:

Boris is a Buffoon and is likely to have a U-turn within weeks, so I wouldn't be holding out much hope.

Besides, his murderous mismanagement of the pandemic will result in severe curtailment of the 20/21 season,
but that will pale into insignificance when the death toll exceeds 125,000.

Not trying to be a doomster, just a realist.

Not a topic we need on here though really with views like that being expressed - this isn't facebook.

and BTW I do think it could have been done better, but that is only in Hindsight

as they say hindsight is 20/20

In the heat of everything they followed scientific advice and that is the end of it.

hashtag I bet you think it was all about installing 5G to control our minds?

From what I heard there will not be Season tickets holders getting priority it will be much fairer than that.
