An amazing win last night.. 10:08 - Dec 8 with 1325 views | Wallingford_Boy | Against one of the best academy sides in the country right now. But why no fans at Portman Road? Would have made it even more special for the boys to have some fans cheering them on. Apologies if this has been explained elsewhere! |  |

I asked a week or so ago and was told not due to safety clearance being required and because it costs the club money to put games on. |  | |  |

Guess if we were tier 1 and allowed 4,000 it would be viable. Dependent on the draw for round 4 it might be worthwhile looking for a match sponsor to cover cost of stewarding. |  |

I get that it costs more money with COVID regulations and no food sales, etc but not getting safety clearance is a poor excuse. They've known about this game for a while and its just a matter of completing a risk assessment and ensuring social distancing is adhered to. We are only talking a few hundred fans! |  |

Really poor excuse, the costs cant be that great, I mean how many stewards are we going to need in one stand to hold 500 -100 fans (if that). Even if you charged the fans surely that would make up the cost, seems an oversight to me and then just making excuses. |  |

Even if they just charged £5 per person to cover a few costs. |  |

Depends how much a health and safety risk assessment then implementation and staff costs would be, it is not a simple case of open the door and employ a few stewards. |  | |  |

It should be though. Health and safety/red tape has gone nuts. |  |
