This is surely easily resolvable. Portacabins of course. Or just use the usual tunnel and changing rooms? I’ve never understood the need to move the away team when during the course of a game nearly all the players will be grappling with each from corners. Bizarre. Actually it’s not at all. There’s a report by the Dutch FA that tested the likelihood oh catching Covid whilst playing football and actually it’s something like a 2% chance and the highest chance to catch it is actually in the tunnel.

Can't say I have seen anything but have any of the team tested positive for the virus ?

If Bristol needs to be tier 1 before fans are allowed back in the Ground the Season will be over.

Not sure I believe that but I guess that’s if they both queue in the tunnel and are hanging around at the same time? No reason why they cant come out a minute apart. Cant remember which Prem game it was at the weekend but players were definitely heading up the same tunnel at halftime.

Assuming an area like Plymouth is Tier 1 they can now have 4,000 home fans but club's like Rovers can't have any fans, that's about £80K+ a match we'll lose along with the loss of fans supporting the team. It will hardly be a level playing field financially or supporters wise.

Question? Some season ticket holders i know purchased there tickets knowing full well it would be unlikely that they would be able to attend re Corona, they purchased them, and i think this is true of the majority, to show loyalty and to help the club in there hour of need.2000 season ticket holders attending would not produce much additional revenue so Would you ,as a season ticket holder, be willing to give up your right to attend in favour of a paying customer in order to help the club in there desperate search for revenue?

What you're basically asking is am I willing to join the Share Scam Scheme?

Is it be worthwhile on the extra expense of stewarding and social distancing measures opening the ground to 4000 supporters who already have paid up front?

But to give ST holders who were loyal enough to buy a ticket that maybe devalued a chance to attend would hopefully show some form of gratitude which helps financially in the long run?

Clubs have to start somewhere, they can hardly moan next spring(?) if the Government doesn't allow grounds to fully open if they won't even allow 50% in now. Plus those 4,000 s/t holders can, rightfully, request full refunds if a club doesn't open its ground.

It will hardly be a level playing field financially or supporters wise. They wouldn't make 80k, they might not make any money at all or could even lose money. By the time the club put procedures in place, pay for the steward's and other extra staff. Probably have to pay for policing etc to enforce the rules and to make sure there is no trouble etc. A lot of clubs have said, it would cost then e to put games on. Plus the majority of supporter's would be season ticket holders and would have paid already already anyway.
