They haven't got long to get it sorted though, considering next home game is 12th you would think they would want to get on with it...although has any club done anything yet ? the pox have announced their 1000 trial run, though their game is more imminent. if we do open, I think we need to do a 1000 trial before the full monty

You wonder if that game maybe run as pay rather than for ST's... a chance to get a few quid in the kitty. BBC RS says club talking to council over safety certificate

One thing I hadn’t previously thought of is that the 2000 (or fewer if we have to do a test event) may have to include some “non spectators “ - stewards, non playing squad members, directors, etc. I read somewhere that one of the PL clubs would only have about 1500 of the 2000 as paying customers once various “others” (I think that had hospitality /corporate box holders to allow in their total too). The club will need to communicate soon to give people a chance to make decisions about the Fleetwood game.

But as you say they're not spectators. The 2000 is spectators, not people in the ground. Those non-spectators are in the ground (apart from perhaps stewards) currently when zero spectators are allowed

The Times reporting that the PL have agreed on a £250m bailout of EFL clubs
Martyn Ziegler @martynziegler · 17m Replying to @martynziegler Compromise deal is: up to £50m for L1/L2 clubs in grants (£30m grants and £20m loans which can become grants subject to certain criteria), £200m in loans to Championship. Agreed unanimously by PL clubs and EFL board

Just shows how imbalanced the lower tiers are where the 24 clubs in the Championship get to share 4x what the 48 clubs in 1&2 get to share. Its getting to the stage when the Lg1 - Championship jump is getting as bad as the Champ-Prem one.

Seems that PL clubs are charging for tickets for the 2000 fans allowed back in whether you have a season ticket or not, then offsetting the cost of the ticket against your season ticket (and presumably any future refund). There'll be bloody uproar if Town try to do that.

The money for Championship clubs - or, at least, those who need it - is to be totally repaid. The L1/2 bailout is a mixture of grants and loans - and under certain criteria even loans could be commuted to grants. Be interesting to see how the money is administered, though. I presume just handing over the money would be a no no.

If you get an extra grant you are restricted in terms of transfers, rightly so imo

Here’s how it breaks down
L1 to get immediate £375k, L2 £250k and then extra based on lost gate receipts. Part of the cash will not have to be repaid if clubs maintain transfer and salary restrictions:

Not sure what its been like for other clubs but see that Cambridge had the fans back last night, and suffered their first home defeat of the season!
