They need to start getting their act together and make a fucking decision. We're approaching the time when clubs will need to be planning pre-season and getting a squad together.

Proposed dates for new season
Plan 1 29 August
Plan 2 12 September
Nothing as yet about fans attending
The article I read definitely says 'behind closed doors'. I guess this is the norm now UFN. |

Indeed, and if they are going to keep dragging it out provide some form of financial assistance to clubs |

From a club director at the EFL meeting yesterday
"I attended an EFL meeting on Thursday and whilst we have been sworn to confidentiality, it appears that a new season date could be a lot sooner than we all feared, and potentially with crowds in some form coming back the same. I think in the next week we will be able to communicate something on this front."

I think it will be rash to start anything before September if not October. Safety first and all that. |

Clubs will be folding by October. Contracting outside is a minimal risk. Get it on!

Not for fans though in close proximity to each other. Football behind closed doors is sterile. |

... but the insides of stands, which folks have to go through to get in and out of the stadium, are not outside.

Could it be feasible they keep the concourses closed, and make everyone enter through the big gates at the end of the stands and then walk along the front of the stand? That way, no inside. There’s obviously the logistics of toilets etc, but could be a way of keeping everyone ‘outside.’ Admittedly this is somewhat unique to The CG, wouldn’t work everywhere. |

I’m sure there’s stuff that could be done in the concourses of the DRS and Arkells to keep some kind of distancing possible with a reduced capacity. Similarly in the Townend you could probably use the centre exit as an addition entrance to minimise congestion. If the weather is Ok there is the Bank as well, I don’t think away fans will be around for a while both to avoid travel and minimise potential trouble.
Cinemas are opening this month so I see no reason now why football can’t follow in a month or two.
