Title: Gainsborough it is.

Looks like our first few home games of the season will be played at Gainsborough.

As always, a very decent and realistic appraisal of the current situation from David Newton. I'm sure I'm not the only supporter who will make every effort to get to games if they are at Gainsborough. After all, it's not much further for me than a 'home' match. The Chestnuts must be supported after everything they have done and are doing for the club. UTP.

Hopefully will only be 1 or 2 matches. Will find out fixtures next week. Hoping league will have given us first few matches away given situation. Not sure how many fans will go to Gainsborough it's about 1 hour 20 mins from  Boston in the car so not the shortest maybe 400 to 500 make the trip.

Coaches could be an option, but with the current public transport segregation rules, it probably wouldn't be financially viable for BUSA to run them.

How many spectators will be allowed into the ground on Saturday and what social distancing rules will apply?

Maximum 500 tickets sold, and the normal rules that people are supposed to adhere to when in public.

They should be marking some of their main stand seats as unusable (I think it's every 3rd seat is usable), then it's up to individuals to ensure social distancing when standing on the terrace.
