A cosmetic reduction (not had a gate over 8k all season) to circumvent some requirements………..will save them a few quid but not a good look.

A cosmetic reduction.

I could do with one of those

6,000 seated and 3,999 on the terraces - yeh, beats the 10,000 rule - but presumably with all those people in the ground, players, subs, managers, kit men, referees and assistants, physios, coaches, assistant managers, first aisers, stewards, hospitality staff, etc. would take the number in the stadium to well over 10,000, so wouldn't be allowable.

As someone has said, it's all hypothetical - they don't get that many in anyway.

Next the 'THEY' will be stopping you ordering a pint at 23:00:01 on a school night.

It's EXACTLY the same as Nazi Germany.

Makes business sense but morally wrong

Good for them.

Hopefully we’ll see more of this.
