You'll be given access to view the games online for free rather than refunds.After this mornings EFL statement where Rick Parry said that whenever games resume they won’t be with the fans in the stadium and will be tv and online only. How are we feeling about that?
Also any one got any idea about ticket refunds? I’ve got a fair few tickets for Lincoln and Accrington

Be interesting to see what's done about refunds
A gig at a not for profit venue for the end of the month has unsurprisingly been cancelled and the venue asked that anyone who could help change their payment to a donation to help them survive
I did so but guess that others would need the money and ask for a refund
Suspect most clubs will hope their fans can help in the same way
I see that NickI think more will be inclined to help their own clubs but not sure they will want to give hundreds to other teams for away tickets.
It's a poor way to end the season, think it would be better to end it now on a ppg basis, at least the season would have culminated in front of paying fans.
If it is finished off behind closed doors, and we win the thing, it will be the greatest achievement in the clubs history, in my opinion.Will it be like pre season games when we return throwing up funny results or will we be able to keep our momentum going to the end

They’re doing it for all fans for free though aren’t they? Not sure how this helps with club revenues?Why is it a poor way to end the season and why would it be better now to end it on a ppg basis? At least by playing behind closed doors clubs get the income from iFollow - which I can see vastly increasingly in popularity with fans of clubs in the EFL. I don't see the logic from a financial perspective ending the season now as this would leave clubs without any source of income for months.

How can anybody think Cov games, real Cov games available to stream for anybody would be a bad thing. I'd be absolutely buzzing in full kit off my tits. Smashing up my own bathroom, smoke bombs in the lounge hoying bags of shite at the missus.

I've spent a fair bit on Accrington tickets and I'm not expecting to see any of it back
I would bloody hope so. Nine tickets for a Accrington I bought.

Exactly, I can't remember what they were but that's about £150? It's not small change.
I have about nine Accrington and about six Lincoln tickets. Gotta be about 300 quid.
They won't watch because we would still be playing in BirminghamNot a penny more brigade will be delighted
On the other hand there is limited income from TV, and now the club is on the hook to pay 100% wages against very diminished income, you can guarantee that people won't pay for streams in anywhere near the number that people buy tickets.

Yeah I’m feeling very nervous about a loss of momentum and some very tricky games coming up.If it is finished off behind closed doors, and we win the thing, it will be the greatest achievement in the clubs history, in my opinion.
Exactly this... this season has to finish, PPG is bollocks (and only talked about because were top), they cannot "guess" the rest of the season.The cancellation argument is based on the principle that we get this out of the way then we start the next season when it's done. it isn't going away, I'd be very surprised if we didn't have to lock down next autumn/winter and then you're starting a precedent that the season is voided when interrupted, so that one gets cancelled and so on and so forth. Once you get to that point why bother going to games or giving a shit what happens as any game could not matter, I wouldn't be buying my season ticket or have anything like the involvement. If we get this season finished (9 games behind closed doors, 2 or 3 a week is so easy) then we can focus entirely on next season and work out how best to deal with those problems when they arise.
I'd rather finish the season then abandon it so if that means behind closed doors then it will have to be that way.
Yeah, people are stuck in the idea of the season being August to May, that is out of the window with coronavirus and the world cup coming up. Lets just finish games when we can and move onto the next one, when that is interrupted we pick up where we left off. then after 2022 we can work out how to normalise things.Exactly this... this season has to finish, PPG is bollocks (and only talked about because were top), they cannot "guess" the rest of the season.
Whenever football comes back (even if behind doors) this season has to be finished before next can start. If that means this season takes us to September, then so be it. Timings will just have to be worked out. We've got a winter world cup coming anyway so that would screw with things anyway.
If theres another lock down, pause again, and start again, not difficult
Players contracts and the infrastructure is built around August to May. It's not that simple surely?Yeah, people are stuck in the idea of the season being August to May, that is out of the window with coronavirus and the world cup coming up.

Only because that is the season. I expect we'll just see players contracted to the end of the season as opposed to 30th June. The alternative is players just not picking up clubs and hundreds being out fo work.Players contracts and the infrastructure is built around August to May. It's not that simple surely?
Easily solved by not opening the transfer window or not allowing new registrations. The option at the moment for players is they stay with their current club or they have no club at all.Players contracts and the infrastructure is built around August to May. It's not that simple surely?
