Crowd test events

We should be front of the queue for these events. According to the data reported on the BBC website last season we had the highest average of empty seats compared with capacity. Our ground has significant open space around it on three sides and there are only three potential pinch points that would compress the crowd. It should be easy to design a system that would allow 3500 to attend which would cover all of our season ticket holders

Maybe thats why we dont really need a major teat event? Should be pretty straightforward to do.

The league have played tight into the government's hands as per usual. They're desperate to keep the OF happy. Anyone in Scotland with a brain knows fine well they won't behave. Justification for delaying the return of fans at everybody else's expense. 

The old firms behaviour should have put them bottom of the queue. I guarantee they won't be able to follow the rules. Rules have never ever applied to them.

Maybe none of the clubs outside the OF are pushing for limited numbers back at games. Games means the club needs to hire stewards/ police/ cleaning staff and such like. We can’t recoup any money from catering or hospitality and there’s no money in a 1000 or so season ticket holders as they’ve already paid. Sad but I think this is the reality

Seemed every fan was sitting apart.

surely folk from same household can still sit next to each other? 

Yeah every one was sitting with no one in the seats either side a gap of three seats in fact, But what did not make sense was people had someone sitting in front or behind them,  Whats the difference ?      If the want to do it were not one is within 2 metres of anyone else , then no one beside,in front or behind the person.

Seems like

Tom English mentioned this on the radio the other night. He said the 'other 10' clubs were quite happy for Rangers and Celtic to lead on these test events.

The highest risk of infection is inside 2m, face to face.

People sitting behind and in front of one another, facing the same way, don't pose much risk

With the average fans/crowd at Rugby park there really should be no issue spread over the 4 stands. No away support either.

I suspect no fans will be allowed in the main stand as this will be reserved only for players, officials, journalists etc, but that should still leave around 13,000 available seats, which hopefully would allow all season ticket holders to gain entry, should they wish to.

From that picture it looks like they've got an empty seat either side and one behind and in front
