Has anything surprised you ( good or bad) about the football restart.

[Jedi boro]

Not just Boro related but overall.

the one thing that I have noticed is how under par some sides are esp the mid table sides as some of the results have shown they are just rolling over. Blackburn for one.

Mainly how bad the "crowd noises" are.

*Shot goes into row Z*

5 seconds later...

Ooooo aaaaahhh, applause.

Clubs (and TV companies) have finally realised that fans actually going through the turnstiles are critical to the future of the game for it's finances and atmosphere.

I just hope that in future we are treated with more respect.

I'm surprised how much I've enjoyed watching without the crowd noise and just listening to the players.

Also I enjoy 5 o'clock kick offs whilst working from home

They have never disputed it and if they could have let us in the stadiums, they would have.

How well former strugglers in the championship have been doing

I was surprised that Gibson sacked Woodgate.

And hopefully in a bad way. Particularly as they threaten us!

No P.L is just as boring as I remember.

How it seems an advantage playing away from home, it is a great leveller for the away team with no home support

 

[Norman_Conquest]

I haven’t missed watching it.

I have watched some form of football since I was around 5 years of age and was ST until the lockdown. I haven’t watched a game since the restart and won’t watch again. I’m surprised how little I’ve missed it.

Next season I will watch non league football.

 

[Michael_Vronsky]

Honestly, at how little I love the game in general now. I thought I would miss it during the lockdown but I really didn't. I'm watching the games but aren't enjoying them. However, I've got my Boro mojo back since the sacking of Woodgate, so that's something!

There is suddenly no need for players to cover their mouths when speaking.

Despite more live TV coverage than ever.

You say that but I saw a few managers doing it sheff u Chris wilder does it.

 

[TeaCider]

The complete implosion of form with some sides.

Leicester and Sheffield United must be gutted about football restarting.

 

[Michael_Vronsky]

Can I add that I'm shocked at how bad Chelsea look of late.... certainly on tonight's form anyway. And Rudiger? If there's a worse defender in the top flight I ain't seen him.

 

[Barnsy]

Surprised that there hasn't been an 'Armchair Fan's Guide' to watching the game for those who prefer to be at the game.

Not surprised by those who announce that they haven't missed it.

David Luiz surely? (Granted I’ve not seen much of Rudiger but I’m better than Luiz and I’m shiit!)

The tosser returns and darkens the room again. Barnsy, once an ****, always an ****.

You must have a new username. I don't recall upsetting you in the past. You have an avatar that suggests you have a desire to be seen as being macho, is that right?
