As well as the "loyalty" side of things, I also suspect there is less chance of abusing the situation, seeing as they pretty much have 99% of the STH's ID's, and each individual attendee will be allocated a set/specific seat location. Under those circumstances, those attending might be a little more determined not to break the rules, and/or act like a complete and utter nobhead?* *See Supermarkets/Harrods/Durdle Door/Bournemouth Beach/Gumpland in general/Millwall FC/10pm curfews etc...

Well, yes. I suppose technically you are correct. Although I'd be highly surprised if the city as a whole was then further split into different tiers. I'm not aware of this happening elsewhere, but then it's not something I've looked into, so I could be totally and utterly wrong. Fingers crossed for you, buddy! If worse comes to the worse, tell them you've moved in with Mucker, and that you now live so close to the ground, you can still hear the crowd on a matchday when we score! Oh... erm...

I think its more the practicality of getting people to and from the stadium and maintaining social distancing. I guess they could stagger peoples arrival times. But will some fans be happy to sit in an empty stadium for say 3 hours before kick off as the stadium slowly fills up. Likewise at the end of the match will those fans with a slot of 3 hours later sit in their seats compliantly while other fans start to leave? Im only using 3 hours as an example...it could be 1 hour. I dont know. But the same applies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think forcing fans to leave early is an option though. I think this is the reason its not been done on a % basis at stadiums around the country. Ok so easy to social distance in Anfield comparied with say The pIrelli, but you still have to get all those people there and home again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gee SCREAMER !!

They don't like toilets down the A52 . Remember what they did to our toilets the other year . Like cavemen first seeing fire , the reaction wasn't positive.

Will the Ram Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 I really don’t like the idea of first come first served. I think they should just do similar to what England do for their away matches; give a time window to apply (eg 48hrs) then put the applicants into a ballot.

Probably just use long drops onto the seats below! It's clearly a blessing that they're not letting away fans in just yet, given their history of in-stadium toilet habits!

G STAR RAM Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 4 hours ago, Tamworthram said: No doubt some will be unhappy and demanding more answers today but, on first reading it all seems pretty fair and probably the best they could do. Given the uncertainty, I'm also not too surprised at the number of season tickets sold. To be honest, Id rather the club concentrated on refunding fans that still have money outstanding before worrying about getting fans back in the stadium. The club is losing a lot of goodwill with its constant lying to fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
