    There won't be anyone in stadiums until at least 1st October so we are all going to miss at least 2 games I'd say. Then you are going to have restricted entry because of social distancing. That would give us with around 18000 capacity a crowd of around 6000 at most. So about one third of capacity. For your first ever appearance in the Championship I thinks that's a crying shame because your numbers would surely go up in normal circumstances and your club needs every penny it can get to even begin to compete in that league. The teams that come down from the Prem will be cushioned by parachute payments so the playing field is going to be even more uneven than normal. It's ironic that the FA try to bring in fair play rules about finances yet distort the leagues themselves.

    What is really galling Rick Parry now in charge of the EFL saying the parachute payments distort the Championship, & who was in charge of the Premiership & brought in the parachute payments go to the top of the class if you gussed yes it's the same Rick Parry
