Don't see much isolating or many masks From the non-league games I've been to, the vast majority people attending matches have managed to watch the games whilst social distancing and complying with the ground regulations - however many non-league clubs have seen an influx of fans from other clubs who are wanting to get their live game fix; it's a double egded sword. They need the fans for the cash, but the fans that are attending aren't regulars and couldn't give a toss if that club has to shut its doors. I know that if the clubs want to keep crowds at games they have to make sure fans comply. Clubs are doing their upmost - but ultimately it's up to the fans to make it work. I reckon Bishops Stortford will be lucky to escape some form of sanction, but it won't be the fault of the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fairly easy to social distance at a non-league ground however if its pissing down and their is limited covered standing space like at Glossop North End 3 weeks ago it becomes a problem.

No doubt focused on a small section behind the goals. Can't imagine any ground with fans being any different so I can see an argument for fully closing all grounds but kick them out because they were on the telly? Where I was on the side of the ground the social distancing was easy and well observed; certainly better observed than the High Street on market day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
