Is Anybody Bothered about no fans !

It's like a Christmas dinner without Turkey, a vegan Christmas dinner, awful.

Definitely miss it big time. Not the football in the first place, but everything around it. The pubs, the pre and post match conversations with people you (sometimes) have known for almost your entire live and the travelling to away games. Also the atmosphere inside the stadium and the banter and laughter with other (opposite or not) fans.

Nothing beats going to the match for me. Watching telly doesn't even come close. Especially looking at an empty and dead quiet stadium.

I enjoy non league football, & I can go home & watch all our games on tv, plus save loads of dough, & not drink so much, happy days !!

The waves of emotion in a packed stadium, can't beat it or replicate it.

I'd rather have no season if fans weren't allowed in for another season, Everton being good and DCL banging them in is just about keeping my attention.
You don't realize what fans add until it's gone obviously not monetary issues aside.

I've more and more missed my own match-day experience, however to some extent my own interest in football - in the general sense - has dwindled.

Like I've previously said, the match-day experience to me is being with my friends, having a pint and chatting, following the rituals with the football as the linchpin.

I would not be fussed in going to watch Everton again if there were reduced crowds (say 25%-50%), so unless it's full attendance I'd prefer no attendance.

I will watch Everton too, not begrudgingly, yet if we weren't playing well and all the interest that brings then I don't think I would be bothered to watch.

Last night, my wife asked me if I was going to stay downstairs and watch MOTD and I'd chosen a movie instead, so I don't even know all the scores from yesterday.

I always watch with no crowd noise, its a gentle reminder that the whole thing is just a bit bollocks really.

Have saved lots of money by not going goodison but have missed it big time.

At this point I'm starting to get annoyed by it. It definitely harms the game as a whole in any sport. But what I find weird is how it effects my enjoyment of some sports more than others.

Not me, saves me shed loads, but still see all games lol, it is the way forward !!

 

[Yank]

I'm not a fan of it, but it is what it is at this point. Can't really do anything about it, and it's relatively minor so I don't bother to complain

The news about vaccines helps for maybe next season but we still have no chance this one.

I actually think it would be better if the whole season was played behind closed doors, it means everyone at least is on the same level playing field(unlike last seasons farce)and I say that as a season ticket holder who is desperate to return to Goodison.

O yeah i do too, plus it will only lead to arguments, lets so they allow %20 cap, 1 in 5 games, someone isnt going to be happy getting Fulham at home while someone else gets a top game.
I think it more important we get the virus under control on a national level, its bigger then my 90 mins of joy

Not me, saving shed loads of money, a matchday can cost me £150 !!
