The higher the percentage of the ground is standing, the more capacity is lost due to social distancing.Shade wrote:I'm sure more than 30% could fit into WR and be socially distanced. I guess its because more people can't be trusted to keep away from each other.
Seating has four people in a square metre? So social distancing would mean losing 3 people per square metre. Ie 3 out of every 4 seats are empty, so operating at 25% capacity.
Terracing is much denser. It must have 9 or possibly 12 people in a square metre. So social distancing would mean losing 8 or possibly 11 people in a square metre. So operating at around 8-11% capacity.
So teams which are all seater will see a smaller percentage reduction in capacity than teams which are mostly terracing.
