my friends down at  bath were contacted by their club with a questionnaire stating possible return to limited crowds based on season ticket holders, thought they said October though

"The capacity at Twickenham Stoop is expected to be limited to 4,000." - much more than I would have thought

Here's the official communication:

Events will support ambition to allow fans to return to live sport from 1 October with social distancing.

That BBC article says 5th September, that is not very far away. There must be some serious work already done and, as everyone will want to know, who will be offered tickets?

Here's the Club's statement: Link

The important section:
Quote
"We will communicate shortly with our supporters about how we will select those that are able to attend this match. We are sure they will understand that it is impossible to get everyone into the stadium for this pilot and we must have a selection process.

"We do of course hope that this pilot leads to further matches and increased numbers of supporters which will enable us to get as many supporters as possible into The Stoop, as soon as possible. At this stage, we ask our supporters to hold for further information which will come shortly while we wait for final details from DCMS."

I see there is a ballot for 19/20 season members so that the lucky ones can PURCHASE a ticket for £30 north /south stands or £50 east/west stands. I’ve already renewed for next year and didn’t ask for a refund for this and my loyalty is being repaid by having to buy a ticket for a game I’ve already paid for.
But after reading the communication more carefully having had it pointed out to me I’ve discovered that they aren’t charging people who donated after all. Good luck in the draw everyone.

Calm down. If you read the note properly, you’ll see that STHs who haven’t requested a refund will not be charged for their ticket.

Gotta get a successful ballot entry as well. Hope there’s more chance than in the ballots for England matches.
