Who knows what drakeford will do he changes goalposts to suit his ego! But suspect he will wait and see how it goes like his previous strategy

Reduced covid-safe controlled outdoor crowds should already be happening.

Argentina v all blacks, had a crowd of a tad over 9000,so it can,and is happening in other sports,why not football? Where would you rather be,a packed albert hall indoors,or say 8/10000 in the ccs? I know which I'd choose.

Fans will NOT return in the UK this year and much of next year. I say give it until October November time in 2021 then maybe things can return but nothing until the vaccine is rolled out.

No offence sam,but you make some bold statements!! Don't forget brighton have already had a successful trial,albeit a tiny crowd,I didnt think we would see full or even 50% crowds,but believe there will be attendanced matches,how many is the question.
If they allow a full house at royal albert hall,an enclosed arena,then we as fans should protest,if football doesnt get the same treatment!!

Under current circumstances but I think they will allow fans as soon as they have the vaccine certificate/passport/ID card or whatever they call it, so those fans will start trickling back in by February. :ayatollah:
