I cannot see any reason why league 2 cannot restart in September/ October With the numbers of deaths falling daily (hopefully )
Why not recommence  league two with social distancing using every other seat season ticket holders buy there preferred seat but also allocated a socially distanced seat to use while restrictions are in force
The overspill from the popular stands go in the Osmond  
Season tickets holders only no visitors
Clubs only allowed to sell 50% of there seats No standing
Remove the idiotic alcohol rule so that you can buy a pint and drink it in your seat
Good behaviour is a condition of entry anyone not adhering to the rules loses their right to attend
Only my thoughts so please be kind lol
All games shown live for the benefit of opposition supporters and anybody unfortunately can’t afford the season ticket out lay

It would be a start and hopefully by then if we're still distancing it will be a metre and not two. Would need careful planning of how to get people around the ground and dealing with supporters who arrive 5 mins before kick off but they'll need to do something as this is going to be with us for a good while yet.

What we really need is games like Scunny and Bolton at home to be near the end of the season, and therefore reap the away gate receipts when we're allowed back inside grounds.  If they're early in the season we'll miss out on so much income, it will be devastating.

The 3000 supporters waking to the ground is no different to the hoardes walking down the prom
Encourage people to get in early by allowing them to drink a pint in their seats
Most league 2 grounds are only 50% full
With the correct planning it could work and perhaps save a lot of clubs Financially
Big games eg Scunthorpe Bradford etc move back towards the end of season and hopefully we will be all vaccinated by then

Next season will be about survival for most clubs and, not going for it big style, as funds will be at a premium with reduced fans in the grounds. It will of course benifit the bigger clubs with bigger capacity as they will take more cash in for home games. The only way i can see it being leveled is a cap of £xxxx being spent on players and wages to create a level playing field, Any thought on that ?

Unfortunately because the arthritis in my knees and ankles is so bad, I have had to let my season ticket go and although I have loved so much my years of attending the matches, unless a cure is found I can't see me going again.

I would gladly pay the full match fee to be able to watch every game home and away; and if this virus is going to be some time before it goes away, that might be a way of adding to club's funds.

Very few who have drank pints where they sit are not going to be able to wait up to 120 minutes for the toilet which will mean brushing past people.
