Bradford City have dropped a huge hint that next season will commence behind closed doors.
The League Two side have this afternoon suspended all season-ticket sales as they await further information regarding a conclusion to the current campaign.
The move comes following a meeting yesterday held between the EFL and the Bantams' fellow League Two clubs.
“'City For All' 2020/21 season-ticket sales have today been suspended,” a statement on the club’s website read.
“The decision has been taken as the club continues to await further information regarding a conclusion to the current campaign, with the start date for next season yet to be confirmed.
“This comes following a meeting yesterday held between the EFL and the Bantams' Sky Bet League Two colleagues.
“City officials have recently been informed of the ever-growing possibility of supporters being unable to attend matches until 2021.
“And it is now highly likely that next season will commence behind closed doors.
“Should this be the case, the club will endeavour to ensure those who have already purchased season tickets for the coming campaign will be able to view matches - FREE of charge - from home via iFollow.
“If this is not preferred then refunds will become available at a later date.
“The club will move to update supporters on this matter as soon as possible, with talks to continue over the coming weeks between the relevant governing bodies.”
EFL chairman Rick Parry recently revealed that the EFL will look to broadcast games online or on television after admitting it is 'likely' football would resume behind closed doors.
Parry, in an open letter to EFL, claimed that the priority of the EFL is to finish the 2019/20 season 'with or without fans' and that there are plans to end the Saturday 3pm television blackout by broadcasting all remaining games.
