How many England fans will there be?

I think they're hoping to have 20,000 fans in for the game.

No outdoor social distancing from 19th July and none indoors or outdoors from the 9th of August. Surely paves the way for full houses early this season. Hopefully we can at least get all our ST holders in for the ECL tie

I would expect fans at Arsenal game - minimum 250 - maximum around 1000?

Then from 19th - 2000 upwards.

Come 9th August when restrictions ease - it could see Livi game being a near full stadium.

The Ross County game before..not sure but hopefully they find a solution and let fans know sooner rather than later.

No reason why those double vaccinated or even single vaccinated shouldn’t be able to attend and sit outdoors to watch football.

Believe that when i see it.

Lot of ***** to shut us up for a couple of months.

There’ll be some new variant of concern found by then.

Saw some professor saying that it’s likely there’ll be more lockdowns from October.

I doubt there will be anymore lockdowns. They should be more worried about those not getting other treatments for things like cancer.

The media love a scare story and have brainwashed many folk who are now scared to leave their homes.

Of course new variants will exist. They should start looking at ways of improving the NHS and valuing their staff more so if there is ever another pandemic they are better prepared.

That's just in line with the move to level 0.

Clubs can apply to the appropriate council/Scottish Government for more fans.

Hibs are looking to get 5000 in for the Arsenal game.

I personally that will prove to be a bit ambitious, particularly with current infection levels in Edinburgh.

I hope I'm proved wrong of course but I would expect maybe 2-3,000 to be a bit more likely.

I just know that Hibs have asked for 5,000. No away fans.

I'm guessing they are going by 25% capacity, same as Hampden for Euros.

Yes that's correct I also read a couple of weeks ago that they would approach the Scottish Government for up to 7,500 to attend if Edinburgh was moved to level 1 ahead of the game which obviously won't now happen.

Pleasantly surprised at this given its a friendly and we'll still be under level 2 restrictions, but all clubs should be out demanding full stadiums from August the 9th, no ifs, no buts

Looks like a return in August!!!!!

Oh I soooo hope this is possible.

And 2 days earlier if possible!

A full stadium is gonna be superb and really can’t wait.

And of course we have the drum and the rest of the crew back in the East…

That article appears to have nothing to do with crowds, it was about football restarting

I tend to take anything Leitch says with a pinch of salt. He’s a bit of a slaver.

First league game at home would be Livingston on 28th.

That buys us another couple of weeks and would see us miss only our 1st home league game on the 7th.
I also note our first league game away at Motherwell on the 1st August is live on Sky.
Fingers crossed.
Even 60% capacity would get all our season ticket holders who want to attend in if away supporters are not present
