Premier League clubs struggling with impossible task of sharing 2,000 tickets among tens of thousands of loyal fans as top flight clubs ask, what is the government's plan to help us increase attendances?

Premier League clubs have expressed frustration at the 2,000 limit on fans despite their huge stadiums and the detailed safety plans, which are in place.

Clubs were this week given the go ahead to allow up to 2,000 supporters back into their stadiums, depending upon local restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic.

But as they struggle to work out how to share the limited tickets fairly the clubs are also disappointed that there is still a lack of clarity from government on how it intends to increase attendances when coronavirus infection rates start to fall.
