Re: Boris' New Proposals
Posted: Thu Sep 10, 2020 10:35 amI would hope that we may benefit from early attendances because a thousand fans limit wouldn't be too difficult for us. 1,000 season ticket holders spread around four sides of the ground. How many season tickets have we sold? We'd probably need some kind of system as to who goes where, for example, who goes on the 'Berlin Wall' even though their ticket is for a covered area of the ground? But it is 'do-able' for us, more than most clubs.

Posted: Thu Sep 10, 2020 3:14 pmThe info that we have been told, which may have already changed after the rethink yesterday, was we have just over 700 season ticket holders and the prospective number to be allowed to socially distance and watch a game at the Mazuma was provisionally just over 1000, but that was before yesterday!!
So if you have a season ticket, you could be allowed in, when the time is right!!

Posted: Thu Sep 10, 2020 3:48 pmHow will the Clubs that have a large number of s/t holders deal with the situation, when they actually get round to it?
Draw straws?
Alternate games?
Roulette?
It seems pretty clear now that there won't be any walk in tickets sold for quite some time

Posted: Thu Sep 10, 2020 4:41 pmKnowing how pro active our 'new' board have been over the last few months to combat the financial problems thanks to the virus i hope that they have contingencies in place in case the lack of fans at the stadium lasts longer than initially planned resulting in a very serious financial penalty.
It would be most welcome to hear that the EFL and Premiership have settled their current dispute which appears to be stalling resulting in a lack of financial assistance at the moment by the Premiership.
If the current dispute results in an extended delay in financial assistance then I fear that a number of clubs could go to the wall....naming no names....

But they haven't crippled their economy, refused people vital healthcare, sent suicides and depression through the roof, robbed kids of education and they don't have millions of people on Gov hand outs that are due to end soon.

Denmark's population is almost the same as Sweden.
Denmark's Economic Activity dropped by 29%
Denmark had 11 deaths per 100,000
Sweden's Economic Activity dropped by 25%
Sweden had 57 deaths per 100,000
So Denmark's economy (using 'Economic Activity' as an indicator) was only 4% worse than Sweden, but with only a fifth of the deaths.
It isn't finished yet. I agree entirely that there are lots of other issues to take in to account, including the number of people who have died from other issues, such as death by suicide increases or cancer operations cancelled, but I think it is far from clear which approach has worked best. And that's allowing with a view from hindsight. We'll see where we are next April to decide what worked best.

The end of furlough will be a real life changer for many
