Due out at 1 today. According to National League website first game of 2021 has been pencilled in for Saturday 2nd January. My prediction for our last game of 2020 which is Monday 28th December will Ebbsfleet or Dartford. Any other predictions?

Apparently Dartford have asked for Ebbsfleet over the festive period, we're bound to get Dulwich of which hopefully boxing day will be at PVR due to no trains running
I notice in Erith b n q league a lot of attendances of 300....will ours be capped at X amount ?
From what I have read elsewhere teams have been capped at a percentage of the minimum capacity for their league. Also subjected to local authority regulations as well. This would hit the larger clubs in NL, NLN and NLS such as Wrexham, York and Dulwich. For example Wrexham have something like 10600 capacity excluding the closed Kop which would reduce to 2600. Maidstone, Dulwich and Dartford could find themselves with not being able to let all their supporters in. As I understand it we have spoken to LB Bexley regarding measures we have to put in place on matchdays.
Maidstone have announced no provision for away fans at the start of the season due to crowd limit. Presume may be able to get tickets online once they have sorted out their season ticket holders.

Thats maidstones decision, i would only hope clubs that arent allowed fans there make the reverse fixture a home fans only game.
Indeed Tom I totally agree with your sentiment as do some on the non league facebook page. However from a totally commercial point of view unless a club gets an allowed capacity crowd week after week clubs need away fans to help survive. It is no good us allowing (for example) 600 home fans in and stopping another 600 away fans who pay entry, buy at bar, tea bar, shop etc. However in saying this my biggest worry at present is will Up The Creek Downing Street Branch actually start letting fans in full stop.
If the idiots dont stop ignoring the rules we will be in a total lockdown and we will not have a club....just look at the numbers...now increasing in care homes again....In France who are getting 10000 new cases a day some hospitals are at capacity....that will be us soon if people just followed the very simple rules
A lot of clubs have already said that they won't play games if there are no crowds. If that is the case and the season gets delayed, then I can see the season not happening at all. That would be worrying for most non league clubs.
There's already a packed fixture list and if a club was to have a positive covid test, they would I believe have to go into a 14 day quarantine. So if the season was to run, there could also be a huge back log of fixtures.
It could be chaos at the end of the season!

Complete nonsense. France and Spain have had far stricter rules than us but it's not doing them much good, whilst Sweden has been the complete opposite and they have n't tanked their economy.

France now allowing 5000 crowds, Open everything up as normal, make facemasks manditory for all in enclosed spaces (no exemptions) and put social distancing measures in. Monitor it every month.

I tell you what they should have done- absolutely nothing. There is no evidence that the lockdown has saved a single life. The virus was in decline in this country before the lockdown. The subsequent recession and ongoing side effects, such as people not going to the doctors, will likely lead to more deaths than would have been prevented. Granted this was n't known in March but it is better understood now. Every statistic you now read about Covid is now politically motivated and hence cant be trusted. The Covid tests, including those who have died, are far from accurate.
