“No one knows of course, but I feel really optimistic that we will be full.
“All the mood music and the messages coming out of government are positive, with the cautionary caveats and safety will always come first. Maybe the fan experience will be slightly different, but I’m optimistic and that’s our objective.

“Full capacity crowds [have been] the missing ingredient, so let’s be optimistic about it.”
