SamUltraRam Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Not wishing to sound ungrateful but I guess the associated costs for each club to provide a safe environment for 4000 season ticket holders would make this non profitable Got to start somewhere I suppose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sage Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 6 minutes ago, Ghost of Clough said: 4,000 for tier 1 areas, 2,000 for tier 2, or 50% of the stadium (T1/2) - whichever is lower. 50% is a really high number to leap to from zero. Now that is clueless. Even every other row with 2 seats between each group, which you would think is a minimum safety distance is around 40%. Doesn't apply to Derby but I wouldn't fancy being in the Pirelli with an 3450 in. The numbers are higher now than June, July and September when we weren't allowed in. Madness.

MackworthRamIsGod Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 It's a positive step, unfortunately Derby will be tier 3 after lockdown so we will just have to wait a little longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marriot Ram99 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Personally I think more people should be able to go games than 4000 maybe at least 8000 but ist better than nothing I suppose, will count for duck all finance wise for a club of our size though.

Probably worth changing the title of the thread. There is 0 % chance that 4000 fans will be going to PP any time soon. It could lead to massive disappointment for some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 1 hour ago, Ghost of Clough said: Why capped at 4,000? Surely clubs such as Man Utd should have be able to host more spectators in their ground than Exeter in their 8,830 capacity stadium? But there are only 4,000 season ticket holders who actually live in Manchester so it should work perfectly shouldn’t it? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each season ticket holder can expect 2 games a season. Although I assume lots would not take up the offer. It’s bad enough at cup games with 12-15000 in the ground. I reckon with 2000 it could be worse than 0. You won’t get any atmosphere or singing which won’t be allowed. Yet you will hear all the moaning.

He can have mine, I won’t be going back under those circumstances I was going on a best case scenario situation when I was thinking of 4,000. 2,000 as you say could be more likely, maybe there might be a lot of people with your suggestion who might prefer to not attend. And the applause was for your gesture in giving away your ticket, that’s a nice thing to do should someone really want to attend. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 I’ve been in the ground with scarcely 10,000 in it and it’s awful. I’d recommend having powerful microphones in every seat to amplify the noise but I fear the sound of 4,000 farts might put the team off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
