Return of Supporters

History repeating itself here:

For the 1981 Cup Final replay Wembley send 30k tickets to City and a Spurs and, due to there being no time to organise any thing else, put 30k on open sale at Wembley on the Monday morning.

With Spurs being up the road, this meant that their fans bought all the open sale tickets and they outnumbered us 2:1 in the stadium. This was despite the stadium being evenly split on the Saturday.

The same will happen again although with 8000 tickets it shouldn’t make that much difference!

People said similar when they restarted football without fans. We wouldn't have seen a single game of football this last year if that were the case. We might be waiting some time yet til we get full houses yet. Could be years, could be never

A bit different as with no fans no advantage to either team and also no nonsense about who is going to get a ticket.

As for full houses being years away. Why in the UK are we bothering with vaccines if it is not to get back to normality.

Keep hearing this on most things. Seems to be becoming accepted also.

With the same amount of fans for each team there won't be an advantage either. As for who gets a ticket, well its better some get them than none at all (which could be the way for some time)

The vaccines aren't a guarantee and we don't know what's ahead. It might be years or it might be all sorted in a few months but for now I'd take what we can get.

How can it be the same amount of fans for each side

We cannot travel in numbers and they offer tickets to locals so there will be more spud fans there.

My opinion waste of time. Tokenism
