Championship will be a better watch (as it usually is).I hope that the testing results from both divisions are reflective of society in general. Quite encouraging numbers.

Let them be the guinea pigs for our next season whenever that is.

Will be interesting to hear the players now that there will be no crowd noise, i wonder how much more swearing, general dissent and pathetic screaming will be audible, i reckon within a week the players will suddenly realise what arshols they sound like when they can be clearly heard with no crowd masking them.

Also i wonder if the pace of the game will slow without the crowd urging players on.

Personally I am pleased it's back on but only for the money that will hopefully be generated and passed down to ELF club's from it. Don't give a shite otherwise. In the long term could definitely be a negative for us and other smaller club's with people starting to watch premier league footy and getting sucked into that rather than going to the game. If people start to crack open a few cansofbeer and watch th match on the box for weeks they may get into the habit of doing that.

Probably won't change behaviour if it's a few weeks to finish off the season but if league 2 struggles to get started again by September or October it might...

I'm happy about this, now I live on my own I may watch the odd game if I'm really bored. It will be strange with no crowds though, I may have to play YouTube clips of the travelling gtfc fans to make me feel more comfortable watching 😂

Only the other hand if crowds return first to lower league football then it might work our better for us. Watching games on TV without crowds is not much a draw. I was watching the NRL game on Sky this morning and they have recordings, it just feels fake. So much of televised sport is the crowd which is why we keep getting shown shots from the stands.

If the clubs have to perform behind closed doors, why don't they play at lower league clubs, pay them a gate fee - that way they still get their TV money for fulfilling a season, and the lower league clubs get a vital lifeline and TV exposure.

All competitive sport now allowed behind closed doors from tomorrow.

I see that there was a cricket match played in Guernsey with 84,000 watching on youtube. Maybe this will be the new normal for a while with sporting fixtures.

why cant fans return if they are to wear face masks and ppe gloves, surely that's as all that is needed than not having anything at all.
