With easing of restrictions it looks like away days are back. As of the 9th of August social distance and numbers on gathering are being scraped. Football clubs in Scotland can host up to 5000 fans but will need to ask local authorities for more if need be

Limit of 5,000 at sporting events though. Can apply for more on a game by game basis. Unless special agreements are made, tickets will be very limited for us away to Raith.

But for a time, outdoor venues that have 5k crowd expected will have to apply for permission.
Should only really impact on the 1st game at kirkcaldy really as won't be many going to ibrox and won't be any games in near future that will have over 5k at East End.

In theory would think that, might not get the full over 3k as usual but with us being same council etc I would expect at least 2k to be allowed to be in away end.

cause we are struggling to get 2k in at the moment......the east stand isn't in use..... and yes social distancing cause although can be groups of 15 together it's all pretty much 99% singles, twos and threes selecting seats as we still under social distancing regulations.
have a look at the seats available for Saturday thats left and you will see why 4k isn't possible under current legislation

nah got told about santa last night lol
on the social distancing point and number allowed in, if look at the seat layout, 2 seats together has 12 seats around them blocked off for social distancing, 4 seats together has 20 seats around them blocked off, so the actual available number of seats drops drastically.
the pictures at motherwell didnt look good yes, but the stewards and police wont go into large groups to seperate them at the best of times never mind while covid is around, like the NW at the Stenny game where 30 odd "fans" where all together with no social distancing, which the clubs need to adhere to as much as they can otherwise the local councils and police wont grant them safety certificates.

So reading through this thread and various others online, I get the impression that the club applies the social distancing more rigidly than alot of others.
Motherwell and game on Sunday being the obvious comparison. I know there were lots of singles/two seats sold, as I work with a few Motherwell season tickets holders.
This was similar at Dens also.
I'm sure people know fans of other clubs who were similar.
Using that stat out up regards the NW for this Sat. That's effectively a quarter full.
With the same social distancing rules across the country, why therefore are those clubs not only allowed a quarter full?
The flame still burns

Topic Originator: PARSpars

dpard, i think its to do with the seats being selected in small numbers thats limiting the numbers allowed.
hibs for example will probably have sold batches of tickets to supporters buses going thru, so for example a row of 15 down the front, would then have 15 seats behind them empty and then another group of 15 in the 3rd row, so they are taking 30 seats but only knocking out 38 seats around them with 2 rows behind both 15 seats and then 2 seats to the side of each of the 15.
Where as when someone is allocated or selects 2 seats under same distancing guidelines it actually knocks out 12 seats around them,
so selling in big batch is 30 seats taken and 38 unavailable to 2 seats taken and 12 seats unavailble.
this is why aberdeen chairman was asking aberdeen fans to try make friends with other supporters so they could maximise the crowd allowed in.

Because there's a difference between indoors and outdoors and the definition of "outdoors" isn't always clear (like bus shelters with sides being considered inside so no smoking).

No sure what the problem of 2000 on Saturday is? Personally
Club has confirmed today that there will be a general sale so that suggests ST holders have not taken up the tickets.
No away fans means they can’t galvanise there team.
It’s clear we are applying the rules to the law.
I work on the basis off if you have your ticket what’s the problem.
I’m the long run 5000 will be enough for all our games unless there is a massive decider

It is likely to be easier to get increased capacity from next week anyway as no social distancing so if more than 5000 required then I can't see it being an issue. I'd be surprised if Rangers and Celtic don't get full capacities in the near future.

It`s been said many times over - and not just on this forum - that it is up to clubs to apply to their local councils for higher crowd attendances and that is on the guidance of the ScotGov. Complain to the Council / ScotGov if you if ye like.
Have you any idea what it takes for the club and backroom staff, players, management, COWs volunteers etc have to do to get the game to go ahead - with daily tests etc? You should be bloody grateful that they all have to deal with the safety guidelines themselves before any supporter gets into the stadium.
The least supporters can do is acknowledge that the Club are just trying to keep you all safe, following the correct guidelines and hoping that some sort of normality will resume, and we can ALL enjoy the football again.

On the park, open air and unlikely to be in 1m distance for more than 15mins (I'd worry if they were...)
In the changing rms much less ventilation, prolonged exposure less than 2m so been much higher risk up until now and restricted numbers per inside space.
All changing so hopefully opportunities to reinstate away team to Norrie.

Restrictions lift (mostly) on Monday therefore they shouldn't apply 2 days before that? It's that what you're saying?

The thing I don`t understand is the policing of this. I haven`t seen anything about the 5,000 attendance limit and may search later. The Pars are one of a few teams who are capable when doing well (particularly when fans have been starved of football) that could stray over that limit. The only way of assuring we don`t is to operate a ticket scheme for every game which I doubt we will do. Therefore if everyone rushes back you could be at 5, 300 plus at a game.

all the games are technically all ticket anyway!
5k limit was mentioned in Sturgeons presser on Tuesday and outdoor/indoor stadia can apply for higher capacity if they want, it's not for all season the limit

They are "technically" all ticket anyway but the only way to control the gate at no more than 5,000 would be to "actually" make them all ticket with pre booked seats.

they all are though as when you place order or purchase ticket you have an allocated seat, am sure the system will have a cut off point if any limit on capacity stays for any length of time.

Sorry Pars 207,I was assuming that we will now be going back to people being able to walk up on the day and purchase a ticket in the Cabin as we did previously. If you are talking about everything going through the system are you saying we are not going back to that?

depends on what club does but no real need for the cabin as will always be the actual ticket office and fans can purchase tickets online now and get match ticket on phone or email.
with the while covid situation, wouldn't be surprised to see clubs becoming cashless venues and more online ticket purchases either to use on phone or email to get into games.

Celtic and Rangers already approved for capacity crowds so unlikely anybody else will be limited to the 5000 once they apply.

no changes for the players/clubs!
SCOTLAND’S clubs have been hit by the bombshell news that social distancing amongst playing squads is to STAY - despite the rest of the country opening up.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon announced further relaxation of the rules from next Monday - but the SFA’s Joint Response Group have informed the SPFL there are no changes in football.
The joint response group e-mail has come as a bombshell
Hopes had been high that track and trace rules regarding the contacts of a positive case would be removed, allowing teams to switch to a scheme of training with players who return negative lateral flows.
But in an email sent to clubs yesterday, the JRG have announced that as things stand the rules remain as they were - sparking fears of huge disruption in the coming weeks.
The JRG said: “Scottish Government have confirmed that the criteria by which contacts of positive cases will be identified remain as they currently are.
“This means that whilst physical distancing has been removed, should any club personnel test positive, the current 2m criteria will be used to identify others who would then be required to self-isolate.
“This includes all changing areas, gyms, dining and travel arrangements as per the current protocols.
“We appreciate this news may not be what was expected and an assumption of a return to normality may have been made.
"Our primary focus remains to ensure the safety of all club personnel and the integrity of competitions.”

My wife told me that we could have upto 5000 this weekend. I had to tell her that we are limited to 2000. She told me that she had seen it on STV, I had tell her that would possibly next home game. Fife Council were strict on our numbers, but Falkirk were allowed 3500 in a smaller ground. Singing the Falkirk version of the Adams family, I then told her that they were all related and that they don't have to socially distance.
