If, as looks likely, clubs will be allowed fans back at 25% capacity initially, would our present capacity of 15,728 be increased by dispensing with the segregated areas - Stratton Bank and Arkells. That’s presuming no away fans allowed.

I wondered if the number of season ticket holders were anywhere near 25%. Could see myself reallocated somewhere temporarily.

And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon

I’d imagine we’d get between 4-5000 STs, so not many, if any walk ups.
Whether that 25% is likely to be increased if social distancing is dropped to 1m and/or if the whole situation improves in the next few months.

I think you can take around 1300 off that capacity! |

I think if they do a certain percentage of fans in the stadium, why not have a pay per view programme?

From the FA
‘The FA are working on various scenarios as to when and how it affects the programme of games, this was explained as:
August – A normal season
September/October – Full League seasons to be priority with NO League or County Cups November/January – Not possible for a full league season to be played and in this situation either half seasons (play each other once) or splitting divisions in half (probably on geographics) so that in our case we have 4 divisions of 10 rather than 2 of 20
Later than January – Worse case scenario with re-structure and leagues maybe held over again until 2021/22 season.
Whilst NOT a commitment or guarantee by any means, the FA said the most likely current scenario would be September.’

Let’s go full South America. Two seasons per year, relegation based on an average position over both seasons
