How to end this season ?

The returns been a big success given the circumstances facing them (the pandemic and everyone waiting for one wrong move to sham them), pretty much all the concerns raised in this thread didn't come to fruition.

- There was no nationwide spike in infections (or mass infection for a team that caused a dominoes effect and required half the league to self isolate).

- There was no death or serious illness to any footballer or family member.

- The only mass gathering outside grounds were done by the one set of fans you can rely on to be c**ts at all times.

- Pubs were not rammed with football fans.

- The PL did not take resources from the NHS.

- PL matches taking place did not put the NHS on its knees, not even in Leicester.

- There wasn't mass injuries to players.

- As expected the rest of the country opened up and football wasn't given special treatment.

Job well done given the unprecedented circumstances, next big test will be slowly reintroducing crowds. Even someone like me who's been quite positive about football's response/recovery throughout feels it's going to take a season until we're back to full capacity, so it will be interesting to see how it's phased.

They are currently trialing crowd returns in county cricket, having limited number of 1500 odd etc going well

Quite the timing for our posts, they've just confirmed 20k will be allowed in for the Charity Shield!

Let's see how many of those 20k tickets will go to sponsors  :rolleyes:
To be fair, most fans couldn’t give a sh*t about it anyway! It’s always easy to pick up a ticket and there’s lots more families than you’d normally get a Wembley (which isn’t actually a bad thing).

Usually yeah, but i think this particular charity shield will be a poignant one, a lot of fans will want to be there on 'the day the fans came back'. The virus wont scare them off, look at the places they travel to for away games, us ars and livpool all have huge fanbases, i can see those 'sponsors' tickets going for big money.

I’m sure the more brain dead of the scousers will arrive en masse try and get in, they do have form...
