Today’s Football 2019/20 Season

[Kurt.]

German football

Have to wear masks in changing room
Have to stay 2 meters apart in changing room
No pre match handshakes or photos
Subs have to wear masks in dugout and sit 2 seats apart
Can now use 5 subs in a game.

Then the game kicks off and anything goes .... do they not realise how pathetic their safety rules look as soon as the match starts ?

I know a few reds wearing Liverpool kits for the Bundisliga. Christ on a Harley Davidson

I mean, it’s the Bundesliga behind closed doors. Isn’t the whole appeal and gimmick of that league that the fans are dead funny and bounce around a lot?

Watching any sort of football behind closed doors will put you off it. Not like it’s a pre season game where you can laugh about it - these are meant to be serious competitive games

I’ll wager that a tonne of people turn off by half time when they realise how crap/weird it is

@Archie Knox what was the funny bit? you no fan of bundesliga? yeah it may boring with no fans but it is still something these days.

It’s a step into the unknown but it’s also likely to become commonplace in the next year or so. I suspect we’ll become used to it on some level. However, the test will be when you’ve got skin in the game. Being invested in the outcome of a match. That’s the reality that might be too weird.

Can’t imagine a single person born before the year 2000 is missing footy enough to get hyped over this.

I know bruv. I just don't like the Bundesliga very much - most of um are Kopite YNWA-singing bells over there.

For anyone yearning for footie this weekend:

Which is the one to watch ?

I am thinking maybe the Dortmund game ?

 

[widnesblue]

It’s going to be interesting to see if any fans turn up outside the stadiums. Some St. Pauli fans I know where planning on going outside the ground on the 15th March game at the Millentor. They were all planning on standing outside the stadium, singing and drinking before the season got completely shutdown. The German authorities will have a hard time dealing with those fans and be interesting to see how it plays out.

 

[Saint Domingo]

The first game will have a huge tv audience then it will dissipate immediately. Hardly anyone liked watching the bundesliga before hand, that’s not going to change because it’s now behind closed doors and the only show in town.
