May 17th Fans back in Stadiums....possibly?

Post by TigerFeetSteve »

From what I've seen May 17th fans will be allowed back in stadiums

I think Welford road will go in to the allows ¼ of capacity up to 10,000 so will be just under 6½ thousand allowed.
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Unfortunately that likely means only one home game will have fans in the Prem, Bristol at home.

Possibly some light at last , some caution though as we have been here before and much can happen in a short time.

Does anyone know how many season tickets were sold this season out of interest?

I know it's declined year on year recently and this season is hardly a normal situation, but I don't know if we'll have too many more than 6k at the moment.

Well, I am looking forward to next season. This one has gone out the window, but hey-ho, safety first.

+1 :smt023. While I am "champing at the bit" to get to WR, next season will be early enough for me too.

Written this season off already. Looking forward to a full house for the first home game of the season next year (well this year but you know what I mean) :smt023

Bit of an odd one for the club, if & its a big if fans were allowed in, if it involves extra financial outlay for one game that might not be needed for the 21/22 season is it financially prudent to spend money we don't really have?

Might be one to get the players/staff families in as a thank you?

Fair points but I think the club (and all the fans) are desperate to go back, but I would argue as its only for one game it's less of a hit to have 6,250 odd fans rather than half of season of socially distanced crowds. I agree though that players/staff families should be prioritised alongside local key workers within the season ticket-holders.

I hate to say it but I think the NHS staff are likely to still be rather busy.

Doubt I’ll ever be going back if we are ever attempted to be coerced into having the jab with domestic vaccine passports!
