I seem to recall hearing a while ago that crowds would be allowed back into Town's matches in October. Is this actually happening, and if so, how many fans? I can't see any info online about it.

Good God. You expect fans to attend an outdoor event?

Report immediately for further indoctrination.

This whole farce of lockdown needs to end now and let people decide what to do themselves.

Accrington have announced that they intend to allow crowds of up to 1,535 fans at their ground from 'early October'. That's based on a normal capacity of 5,450, so just shy of 30%.

I don't think it's a simple matter of applying a blanket percentage though as all grounds aren't made equal, and Accrington still have several standing areas which is presumably better suited to distanced attendance, however for illustration applying that kind of ratio to BP you're looking at around 2,500.

If that's doable, with the 'top-up' from fans not in attendance paying to stream home games, you'd hope that the financial impact will not be quite as severe as potentially feared. A lot of ifs and uncertainty about all of this though, I admit.

You can sit in a pub and drink without a mask,  but you can't sit outside in a football ground.

It's a total farce what you can/cannot do and where to wear a mask and where not to wear one. At the height of the pandemic I could go into the shop without a mask, now I have to wear one.

I mentioned on another post. I went to Papa's yesterday, it was rammed. No social distancing, full Pier, waiting area full of people waiting for seats. Must have been 150 people in.

I don't know why anyone is worrying. I'm sure the government will release some clear consistent guidance very soon.
