Nottingham Forest boss Chris Hughton has outlined his stance on the return of fans to football matches.
The coronavirus pandemic has forced games behind closed doors, with the Reds last playing to a crowd in March.
Part of the Government's response to the threat posed by Covid-19 was to suspend all matches for three months with games eventually returning in June albeit without supporters.
The 2020-21 season has kicked off without fans at any games but, after the Government's announcement on Wednesday regarding how the country will end a second national lockdown, supporters are set to return.
However, some fans will be excluded based on what tier they live in.
Nottingham is in Tier 3, the harshest level of restrictions that does not allow for spectators at sporting events or live performances.
Places in Tier 2, like Liverpool or London, will allow 2,000 fans back into matches.
Hughton, whose Forest side will play in front of fans for the first time since March 6 when they travel to Reading in December, stressed that public safety must come first.
But he was steadfast in his view that it should be one rule for all.
"I've got two views on it," he said ahead of Sunday's game against Swansea City (12pm).
"And all of these views are always around public safety and making sure that everything is done right to protect those who are vulnerable and want to come and watch the games.
"First and foremost I think it's great news because you hope it's a start and you hope that things improve enough throughout the country for those numbers to increase eventually.
"I think it's great news for the game but I do think it's very unfair.
"It's unfair on those teams like ourselves who won't be able to have supporters in and nobody knows how long this will be for.
"So we might be talking a couple of games or so but it might be for a lot longer but who knows? So I do think it's very unfair on teams like ourselves.
"If you were to ask me what was the correct way, I probably couldn't tell you.
"What I don't want to do is dampen the enthusiasm that supporters can come back but that is secondary.
"Secondary to what is the most important and that is the health of the nation."
