    Dont allow away fans and open the side the west stand thats been closed, let some sit on the roofs, seating sections up every floodlight and build a perspex roof over the ground to allow people to lay down and look down onto the pitch (2m apart obviously) .
    Should just about accommodate most reds fans :D

    We only fill just over half the ground now so only a few would miss out.

    TBF the first bit about the away end and west stand are viable options IMO. I got a bit sidetracked after that trying to make the numbers up

    You can but it will be a prime position up there. You may have to forego your 4 game flexi ticket as recompense

    So we'd be able to fit around 4000 in the ground. I suspect if that's the case it will be those who renewed the earliest within the number allowed in the stadium.

    I would imagine it’s a ballot then perhaps you can only attend one game then miss the next. Dont think you can give priority because someone chose to renew for next season tbh.

    There would be some grumbling if it was a ballot. Imagine how happy you'd be if you drew Wigan at home but missed Sheffield Wednesday at home.

    Assuming we're all still in the championship of course.

    I imagine admission to the ground would be on a shared out basis between all ST holders, assuming we sell more than about the 4500 we’d be allowed.
    Doubt it would go on who purchased their ticket first.

    don't shoot the messenger guys, if it is wrong, but just been watching racing post tv, they were talking about when fans will be allowed back into watch dogs, one of presenters said "it wont be long , my football contacts are talking about 1/5 capacity at football within 6/7 weeks" , thought I would relay it on here, if true some might get to see last 4/5 games live, seems a big step for me, to say only 6 people allowed to meet at moment, but have just repeated what he said on a live t v show

    1/5 capacity wouldn't be anywhere near socially distanced would it?

    Hundreds have renewed already so I suspect those who book early will get first priority over them who leave it longer. Much like those who go to more away games get to buy first.
