Have to agree with Larrald, it doesnt make any sense.

The 2000 rule applies regardless of how big your stadium is which again makes little sense....or how many you jam into one stand?

In my mind this is a foot in the door tactic that should see the crowds gradually increase.

If the argument is that there is 2000 in a stand that holds 8000 then why not 7000 in a ground that holds 28000....

  - Yeah the 2000 rule is silly for a ground as big as Carrow Rd. (NCFC) - Trent_Canary, Dec 6, 20:53:51
- 2m is the scientific space so what is the issue (NCFC) - Jumbo1, Dec 6, 20:32:51
  - Two seats or one row separating fans is not 2 m - more like 1 m (n/m) (NCFC) - ede, Dec 6, 20:52:24
  - The bigger the distance the better. 2m is the minimum (NCFC) - Ben, Dec 6, 20:47:38
    - Yep!!!! (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Dec 6, 20:50:24

    - 2m is 2m if you’re that paranoid don’t go out (n/m) (NCFC) - Jumbo1, Dec 6, 20:38:25
- There were less than 2000 people in a stand that holds of over 8000 (NCFC) - R T Chase, Dec 6, 20:32:30
  - Given how easily it spreads the club could have spread fans around the rest of the stadium (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Dec 6, 20:34:57
    - Fans can choose to stay at home if they don't think going to the football is safe. (NCFC) - phelans tash, Dec 6, 22:13:23
    - Much safer than a trip to the supermarket (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Dec 6, 21:11:05
    - I was there and there were 3 seats between me and the next chap (NCFC) - Trent_Canary, Dec 6, 20:51:10
      - But that's the point (NCFC) - ede, Dec 6, 20:57:33
        
        There was plenty of spacing. (NCFC) - Trent_Canary, Dec 6, 20:59:12

        I feel sorry for people like you. You just stay indoors and never leave. (n/m) (NCFC) - Trent_Canary, Dec 7, 05:55:16
    - It doesn't spread anywhere near as easily outdoors (n/m) (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 6, 20:39:31
      - Lower risk outside but not no risk - especially with people shouting and singing (NCFC) - ede, Dec 6, 20:51:03
        
        I would agree that I've seen other grounds have people more (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 6, 20:52:54
      - Yep but club could have done better to spread fans around the stadium to keep them safer (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Dec 6, 20:42:40
        
        It would not keep them ‘safer’ it would spread them out (NCFC) - Jumbo1, Dec 6, 20:45:13
        
        More spread out would be safer for fans (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Dec 6, 20:58:10
  - ^this (n/m) (NCFC) - Jumbo1, Dec 6, 20:33:08
