We had already said we were returning to play before this fundraising started and no one would want their donation back if we didn’t play. We’re regularly fundraising just this one seems to have gotten a lot more attention.

Season Ticket holders get first option on tickets, no question about it.

Although it doesn't look like this saga is concluded yet.

Do Sligo withdraw their objection to playing now they've raised all that money? If they don't play, do they intend refunding everyone?

I'm hoping Bray let their season ticket holders back in, don't see why they wouldn't 

This could get tricky. Probably gonna be 400ish fans by the time players, management, stewards, medical staff, sponsors, etc are catered for first. 

Are season ticket holders more deserving that fans who pay full whack every home game. I know lads who pay every game and have been doing that for years. 

We have about 600 season ticket holders, so probably have to do a draw for each game if its limited numbers in. 

The main concern for clubs that only let in season ticket holders is that a club are not getting any gate receipts because they have paid their money already. And the gate receipts could be the difference between breaking even or making a big loss this season. 

Its a balls. 


So your saying the clubs should hold on to the money that's already been paid for season tickets, then not let the people with season ticketsin to the games but rather make other people pay in?

How does that make any sense? Can Sligo afford to refund season ticket sales if they want pay at the gate only?

Can't think of any fairer way than allowing season ticket holders in tbh. They've already vastly overpaid for the handful of games they're allowed in to, and I could see a lot of anger brewing if non ST holders are allowed in ahead of them

Crowds of 500 allowed outdoors from 1 August so there should be crowds allowed in. Shels CEO said we've sold approx 500 season tickets so they could be allowed in depending on government advice
The 500 might include the teams, reporters, club officials etc.


Even if it did, you'd still get a few hundred fans in fingers crossed

I doubt they can do that if the players have contracts. The fact there will be relegation means it would be a big risk.

I do feel that’s what some of the clubs wanted to do though

But at least it's a plan but should not have taken this long, Euro clubs will get some games before the Euro campaign.

League finished in Oct 2019.
3 1/2 month break to the new season.
4 1/2 month break for covid 19
back for 3-4 months to finish season before another long break

Seems like a write off of a year
Yeah seems like a season just thrown together to give the European teams some practice and have us ready for next year.

Can't see many of the non-European team getting much of a squad together. They won't have the cash without crowds. Probably better off leaving the players on unemployment payments and going part time.

Count yourselves lucky being in the premier we had a 6 months break and haven’t had a home game since 15th September 2019.

Great to see common sense being applied by the fai and all teams being treated equally.
One City,One County,One Club GUFC will be back.
