    They will keep some form of difference from England, just ones that don't cost any money.

    People are being conned all over the globe....really not just here in the UK.

    Some places far worse.

    Why shouldn’t it open?
    The reason given was the single access toilet but with distancing gone that can no longer apply.
    Was ridiculous anyway and no different from most pub toilets in the land. Open Cox, Derry and Main and all our season ticket holders are in (guess 2,800) that means they can let in 2,200 pay at the gate between the 3 areas and apply for every game to open Shankly for away fans and extra pay at the gate fans for ourselves.

    This having to apply for over 5000 is an utter piece of nonsense as expected from the useless assembly. Both Dundee and United should just bombard them with 18 applications dated for every home game immediately, they’ll no be long getting that scrapped

    I think that it is crazy to have a 5,000 capacity across the board from 9th August when some football grounds have a capacity of less than 5,000.
    Hopefully John Nelms will contact Dundee City Council to have the capacity at Dens Park increased to at least 8,000 to cover a surge in PATG Dundee supporters who have not been able to attend a home game at Dens since 10th March 2020 plus away supporters.

    I was also in shankly, looked more 50\50 to me , I never had mines on while sitting down and was never asked to put it on , if you go through the photos put up on Facebook by Sean and Dave young , looks like more people maskless than with masks ,

    'Outdoors gatherings one place' surely means in one stand? It's not like you can walk freely from one stand to another is it? So 3,100 in each end, 1,800 or whatever in The Derry and whatever the Main Stand holds as long as it isn't over 5,000.

    Or is that too sensible?

    I'll have a look but was more looking at folk coming up the stair......that's actually cheered me up a bit.

    Watched this guy obviously struggling with breathing come up wrong aisle.....I was sitting on the end.....I said to him to sit Doon and get a breath but he was hesitant.....I gave him my seat for a Cple of mins.....loads of spare but was wary of sitting on them.

    He then struggled Doon and up the other aisle.....all the time masked up......really felt for him.

    They can get 6000 behind both goals, 10000 without Derry.

    I honestly expect them to ask for 6000 no away fans.....or 10000 with away fans.
