Absolutely no benefit to anyone playing behind closed doors. Id rather it all start again end of the year or next year so that it may be done properly. Ive tried and failed all season to get a ticket, that doesn't mean that im pleased about the prospect of games without fans.
..you've forgotten about me!.
Not to worry, everybody seems to, so, l'll just plot on like I always have done!.
Shaun, if they do not finish this season, then the next season whenever it might start will be a false season, because the teams that have fought through this season will not be in their rightful places!..
And that means promoted or relegated!.
You ever watched a game with no fans on the telly.
It’s dreadful.
hahahahaha, love the sarcasm salonika
Non-UK fans have had the ability to watch every game live during the last two seasons on LUTV for a fiver!
The Leeds United of Los Angeles Supporters Club have done that except for the Sky games which we streamed on ESPN, often saving us from having to watch at 4:30 am!

This pandemic has certainly strengthened Germany's grip on the EU Europe that is without question.
Neutral venues too.
They should just end the season like other leagues.
Those selfish 35000 are keeping the club in revenue.
What are you contributing in return exactly?
If it wasn't for fans paying through the door you wouldn't have a club to support right now in front of your TV. In this division & below, gate receipts matter. YOU'RE the selfish one here, not the paying fans.
Never been delighted in giving this a ZERO star, ok can't do that so ONE star will have to do.
Now F off & don't come back !

Been in lockdown too long Cayton ?
Fans attending matches is becomIng less and less important to club income..... more about the mega TV money...and where does this come from ??
Yep... it’s coming from the ‘other’ 90% of fans paying for their Sky, BT, LUTV, but which you think is unimportant... ?
Salonika, I thought that was a tongue in cheek remark in the OP. Do you serious believe that?
The significance of mega tv money only applies to the Prem, EFL clubs have much higher revenue from ticket sales and merchandise sales and this depend on those far more than tv money. See what Gary Neville had to say about that and Leeds United not getting what the club deserves from tv money.

Nah.....just wanted to keep
winding up Cayton. He seems the exact type of gullible type you need responding to a thread like this to keep it interesting 😛
You know why football is greatest game on earth.
TENSION
Two reasons for that
The tribalism of fans who go to games.
And because it is hard to score, meaning most games, are not totally decided until the final few minutes.
A team can batter a team, and still not win.
All other sports don’t have that, because of their scoring systems.
In other sports if you play well, you will win.
Not football.
So take away the fans, you take away that tension
‘ tribalism of fans who go to games”...so again the other 90% who can’t get to games are discounted? They don’t ‘get’ the tension??
Wow!
Tell me that’s not what you meant to say.
My missis might give you a call later for you to try and explain why I had to replace three smashed ceiling light shades, one living room window and a busted TV screen 🤦🏼
Ah bless. So your intention is just to simply wind your own fan base up then? Gain a cheap shot in hard times to polish ones ego.
Maybe its yourself whose been in lockdown too long.

Haha...I think we’ve all been in lockdown too long...but I’d stay a year if it meant even one life.
Not a cheap shot matey... just trying to acknowledge that as serious as things are, you gotta have a second or so just keepin it light or you’d go crazy.
And its weird you know cos I agree with other posters on this thread that watching a match with no fans isn’t good....so why is it that I’ve watched everyone of the those FIFA 2020 games that’s been against our scheduled opponents each week since lockdown...and I feel just a tense watching that when wanting us to win !!
FFS ! 🤷♂️🤦🏼

When this is over you gotta get out more, son!
Does anyone think behind closed doors could actually help us? It would remove a lot of the pressure put on the players, and allow them to play a more natural game.

No fans in stadiums will be brilliant...
