Watching dortmund v schalke

[lostinyorkshire]

Bit weird without fans. Like watching a training game. Not sure I think this is gonna catch on

It’ll catch on if the money’s right.

If it gets the season sorted in the PL and Championship then it'll do for 9 or 10 games.

Can't say I'm really enjoying it so far, doesn't feel real and the echoes are jarring.

But it's probably partly because the game itself isn't that good.

I posted this in April
EFL season can be completed in 56 days
It won’t be football though, not really as it will be sterile sanitised exercise purely a functional thing (did you see any of the serie a games played behind closed doors?) It’s football for footballs sake.

Football without fans there - not for me. People will no doubt be switching off in droves after they’ve watched a few of these and rightly so

 

[lostinyorkshire]

Could probably watch it if it was boro playing but I'm bored watching this despite missing football. Back to fm20

Well I am loving it. I love any football.

 

[NYboro]

It's awful without a crowd there.

For me it’s ok but then again I watch any football match when walking the dog in the park. And it’s no different to that really. It hardly stirs the blood. I may be being a bit disingenuous as I couldn’t give a hoot who wins.

I watched the first 20 minutes and gave up through sheer boredom. I’d rather sit in the back garden in the sun.

Reminds me of watching the England youth teams, some good moments of football but the complete lack of atmosphere takes away any real sense of importance from the match.

Good to see Haaland continuing his scoring run though.

I honestly hope that these closed off matches are poorly received, in as much as it reinforces the importance of the fans being in the stadium.

I was looking forward to watching Dortmund. Had to switch it off, it's just not right without the crowd. Don't think I'll bother watching another one.

 

[NYboro]

I've still got it on, but I've more-or-less stopped watching it.

 

[Malaguena]

Have to say it's not doing a lot for me, but tbf it's a 5hite one-sided match

 

[Blf]

Nah Sky won't be getting any money from me for sport if that's what is on offer.
It's like watching a training game. No atmosphere no urgency. No thanks.

It was a bit strange. I was driving home from doing some shopping this afty. The Spanish radio station I was tuned in to had Spanish commentary on this German match.

I never noticed. Shows how interesting I found it.
