We go to matches with our daughter who does not live with us. I hope they can find a way for us to go together if they are going to operate a quota system.
I voted for a lottery of all STHs. Can’t think of a fairer way of rationing.

I’d do it like the England fans travel club. Give a % (50%?) to the top tier based on loyalty points and then lottery for the rest Of the season ticket holders. Or possibly alternate matches?

Lottery of STH's that want to attend.
There will be some shielding or in higher risk groups that won't want to.

Shouldn't be based on loyalty points. Not everyone can go to loads of away games.

I think every STH should be allowed to go to 1 in 3 (or whatever) matches, and then do a lottery to decide who gets which game.

The biggest difficulty would be allowing people who normally attend together to continue to do so.

Back in Sussex
In the NFL, the Jacksonville Jaguars have just announced plans for 25% attendance for next season...

- All season tickets will be returned, and funds paid to date will be credited to accounts. Any payments scheduled for July have been canceled. Season ticket members will have the opportunity to apply credited funds towards the purchase of tickets this season or in 2021.

- Full cash refunds will also be made available upon request.

- In early August, a new season ticket plan for 2020 will be introduced to existing season ticket members first. Access to tickets will be based on a variety of factors, including account tenure. Based on demand, some single-game tickets may become available to the general public at a later date.

- The Jaguars are working with Ticketmaster to develop a new seating chart that allows for 6 feet of distance between unaffiliated parties.

- Attendance at Jaguars games in 2020 will have no effect on existing season ticket member status. Regardless of a fan’s decision to attend Jaguars games in 2020, the account tenure will remain intact. All 2020 seat locations will be protected and offered for renewal in 2021.

Withdean area
Agree needs to be in Pairs.....I would not drive 120 miles saying to her indoors you cant come....and she would not go on her own regardless.

We only have to travel from Withdean, but with walking to park n ride etc, it’s 3 or 4 hours of nice family time.

Going on my own would be a bore, I’d quite possibly forfeit my seat ‘win’ if that was the case.

I’ve still got some programs & ticket stubs from Goldstone & Gillingham days, so I’ll be using these to get priority

If social distancing is reduced to 1 metre (and there's no scientific reason not to), then every other seat could be used, allowing 15,000 in to each match.

Or 15,000 watch the first half whilst 15,000 drink in the Concorse.
