Quoted from Poojah
Ultimately if I can go to work on a packed tube train, go to the pub or a restaurant, both of which are indoors and allow me to use the toilet facilities at my leisure, it seems a bit pointless banning use of the bogs at a (mostly) outdoor venue.

I can’t think of any other kind of venue that has reopened to date which has forbidden the use of toilets. I’m pretty confident that by the time football grounds reopen in some way shape or form you’ll be able to have a slash (or even a shít if it takes your fancy, you dirty, dirty bástard you).


A sh#t at Blundell Park?  Wow, not sure I've ever dared do that!  The bogs at all grounds are bad due to the shear number of users, but BP's are really bad.  We've all seen worse, but not much worse!

Also I would assume they would ban singing and chanting, they are not allowed at outside public broadcasts, that would be very difficult to police, also, that  chap who sits behind us, we’ve all had one, who shouts and yells every 5 minutes.

I'll be happy to stay at home and watch Town Live on iFollow for now.

If we can get 3000 in the ground. open the away end toilets i think we may just get away with it especially if folk dont wait untill half time to dash all at once .. And if we could get 1500 to 2000 to subscribe to i follow the cas should just about see us through.. By the way if you subscribe to watching it on tv will town get the money if we are playing away or does it go to the home side ?

50% capacity is pretty much what we get anyway isnt it ? So in essence it would be just like a normal matchday so if anyone thinks we could host a crowd under current guidelines and social distancing measures then think again.

In essence 50% would only mean that every other seat would be empty, fill one, miss one, fill one, miss one etc. Dont think the width of seats would be sufficient to keep social distancing if just one seat space was left.
Also in a normal row/block at BP you would still be brushing past 10 people at least to get to or leave your seat in your own row as well as the backs of the people in the row in front.

I would think even a third of capacity would be difficult to implement / manage practically in all honesty under current conditions.

No away supporters in the Osmond would mean that some unlucky souls would have to sit in the upper part and miss any ball over 10 feet.

Longer half time to allow for a more leisurely toilet break.
