How they going to manage that, haven't we sold way over 1000 ST, could actually end up costing us money?

alphabetical by surname would get my vote.

hopefully we get a home game where it's on

I caught part of an interview with Dale Vince on R5L. He indicated that his club have budgeted on the basis that there will be no supporters this season. Gate receipts account for 20% of revenues. Not sure how that compares with STFC.

Next 48 hours apparently "critical" in ensuring return of fans and averting financial disaster for League clubs

as I think already said, the cost of only allowing 1000 in is most part financial and a little part in alienating those that can't get in.

I think most would be understanding  if it was ballot from season tickets though.

not that much in it for the club other than perhaps paving the way for a larger return

edit: not enough time to organise properly, can understand that

The test event is likely to be Exeter in the EFL trophy. This is what the club have applied for.

Well that's not going to stress-test the 1000 limit is it.

Clever by the club, brings some cash through the door as season tickets won’t be valid.

Also avoids the ball ache (and potential fuss and ire) about trying to allocate the 1000 spaces between c. 3k ST holders.
