25% of 792 seats would mean 198 able to sit. Even with last season’s drop in season ticket holders, that will leave hundreds of our most infirm fans disappointed. I think most of us would still buy our season ticket even if our seat isn't available. And even if my seat is available I'd happily give it up to someone who can't stand throughout a game, until all seats do become available again.

1200 is not enough for the Stones to be viable. We need @1700 a League game to make a profit according to my sources at the club. 25% is simply not viable for many clubs, including ours, so jump on, support, or start any campaign that you see or hear of that supports higher than 25% - we need it!

The Gallagher holds 4200 people, so If the capacity limit is 25% we would actually be limited to just 1050. I'd imagine/hope the club are setting up a system so people who can't get into the stadium can pay to watch the games online. Its not perfect but it would certainly make up for some of the lost income.

I know they dont show NLS games but they do have the rights to if they so desire.

County cricket seem to be doing something to show games from empty grounds. YTV are showing the Notts game from Trent Bridge, apparently. We can only hope mobile phone footage via YouTube is not the only option and that Stonestv can find a way.

Not sure it makes much difference if there's a crowd or not when it comes to watching county cricket on TV...

Part time at Chelmsford so he can pursue his chosen career. Sensible move for a player in his 30s.

One of MUFC's darkest moments that we ever let a club legend like Worgs go during the nightmare that was the Clown but what's done is done and with us insisting on staying "FT" (i.e. daytime training) and with Lewington on board, there was no chance (sadly) of the legend coming back, so we can only wish him well, albeit through somewhat gritted teeth and with regret, at, ahem........Chelmsford....sigh! All the best, Worgs!
