Is it just me, but I just can’t get worked up about football at the moment.

I am watching the England game but can’t really feel any passion for the match or result. I don’t know exactly why, whether it is no crowd, not being able to go to matches, the virus itself.

A sending off and penalty while I type this, just about sums it up really.

It is all a bit difficult at the moment so can understand this but at least live sport gives us something. I dont really care much for England games at the best of times but it still matters when Albion are playing - virus or no virus

Agree.

Nations League games aren't getting the pulse racing.

But probably more importantly it's that now there's proof that other things are more important

I quite like England's blue shirt. If only I had a spare £75.

Being antisocial I quite like not having to associate with people to watch the footy

I’m an England fan and always will be but tonight’s performance is poor. Senior players are just not offering any leadership with the exception of Walker. Kane, Rashford, Maguire, Pickford playing like they dont want to be there. Get Grealish on and get a Dane red carded.

Wrong thread??

Give it a few months and the price will tumble, always does with England kits.

I'm the opposite. Football has been a saver, been enjoying all of it more in these odd times.

It's good to have such an original and refreshing thread on NSC. Certainly no temptation to rehash 37 other threads' worth of similar moans.

People, sick, dying and out of work seems to put things into some kind of perspective.

It’s all money. Only reason these games are being played.

I think they should’ve cancelled competitions like this. Players need a break, and football needed to catch up.
