TOP-FLIGHT clubs are coming up with schemes to end the fan ban.
And one of the ideas is hiring out bikes for supporters to get to games.
Premier League officials were left fuming when the Government canned plans to allow fans back into stadiums this weekend amid a spike in Covid-19.
Though it is accepted outdoor venues with strict social distancing measures are relatively safe, ministers have concerns about those travelling to games on public transport.
Clubs know they have to come up with suitable proposals to convince public health officials it is safe enough for fans to be allowed back in.
Ideas include allocating extra car parking space and liaising with train companies to provide enough services to allow for social distancing.

But having more safe bike stores and even hiring out cycles is also high on the list.
It follows Prem sides vowing NOT to bail out the cash-strapped EFL.
The 20 top-flight clubs snubbed Government pleas to fund a £250million rescue package being demanded by EFL chairman Rick Parry.
Parry warns his 72 sides face going to the wall without Government help.
But top-flight giants feel they have ALREADY given Championship clubs in particular plenty of cash.
Meanwhile, ten people at Premier League clubs — including players — tested positive for Covid-19 between September 21-27.
That’s the highest weekly number recorded since the start of the season, as positive tests rise following just three or four in each of the last three weeks.
