You do wonder with some clubs going up in the new world of empty stadiums how it will effect their survival chances in the bigger leagues , does that intensity of home fans support really become the 12th man at clubs like Sheff Utd ?
Out of interest what is it you can't get into? it's still exactly the same sport, I totally agree it's weird watching without fans but I don't understand people who completely switch off it just because there aren't a bunch of people they've never met in the stands of the game they're watching. I much prefer watching with the crowd noise on though, I find the silence a bit too weird but for me the crowd noise makes a big difference.
A vociferous home crowd will often get a home team over the line
The noise inside ninian park the day we held on against dirty Leeds with just nine men and that idiot clattenburg as ref was staggering , we definitely helped the team get the result
Football is a bit of a joke at the moment , the premier league should pump money around the leagues to help everyone out at this time
But it won't, as its based on money and greed
It wasnt always like that
It might change when spectators are allowed to go into the grounds again? Having no crowds at the stadiums hasn't moithered me as much as I thought, although principally I was very much against it.
I cant say I'm not concerned though that any continuing Covid19 measures and restrictions won't kill off a number of football clubs of all levels. I think that is now inevitable.
Only just seen this thread which is effectively another version of mine.
It’s not just that teams perform, crowds affect decisions of the team and the referee.
Will be hard for some
It has made no difference to my enjoyment of watching a game on TV. I could do without the fake crowd noise though. I prefer hearing the players and coaches.
I was fortunate to watch/ be at the game against Aston Villa n 2017 season when we won 3-0.
The crowd got onto Grealish early and kept at him until he failed to contribute anything to the game.
I genuinely believe that the crowd played a key role in us winning that game so convincingly
If the game was replayed without a crowd the result may well have not gone our way
