Slippin cider Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 I went to the gate a few weeks ago for my vaccine, I have to say it was one of the rare occasions I wasn’t disappointed.... don’t think fans will be back this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeh Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 I doubt fans will be allowed back until the entire adult population has be vaccinated. So hopefully next season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So hopefully next season I’m not sure if it’ll need to get to that level, but we still have a heck of a lot of people in hospital - only just come under the 1st wave peak in the last few days. Daily admissions are still pretty high I think that’s a bigger indicator for when large gatherings can/should take place again but will probably be around the same sort of time. There may be some appetite for really small crowds again, but I’d still think there’s more important things to slowly re-open before that. I don’t think it’s unrealistic to hope for at least some level of crowds in grounds start of next season, if not full capacity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no away fans so will make England v Scotland a bit sh*t. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUTOR Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 So if all goes to plan (unlikely) we will be back, in full capacity, to see the beginning of the Nigel Pearson promotion season. Pubs before hand would be absolutely buzzing. Seems like dreamland but what a special day it will be when it comes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onlyotib Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Apparently 10k fans allowed back into stadiums. The bad news is tho the season finishes a week before that. Typical altho I’m sure we wouldn’t miss much given the latest within our beloved club. Onwards on upwards I suppose tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC1512 Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 So with today announcement that fans back in 17th May, do we think city will just refund rest of STs then put next seasons on sale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredibly one of last bits of living I did was go to the Milan derby (4-2 Inter) in Feb 2020. What a game, stadium and atmosphere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct If the pilots are successful, "up to 10,000 people or 25% of total seated capacity, whichever is lower" will be allowed in stadiums for sporting events, but not before 17 May.
