No fans allowed at Horsham then, that's a shame.

Interesting that there are exactly ten teams in each tier.

Only a few thousand fans but genuine home advantage, need to grasp this opportunity.

Man Urd could play home games in front of 2000 local fans at The Amex...

As could Chelsea, Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool . . .

All of which can legally play at home.

Will be odd on MOTD going from games with a very partisan small crowd, to games with no/fake crowd, and so on...

Looking forward to the inevitable meltdown from them up the road as the Always Ultras DEMAND all 2000 tickets and throw their toys out the pram when they don't get them.

I dont think fans are allowed to chant & sing (or stand) so will it be that much of an advantage? Oh think they can clap!

Might have dreamt all this up :smile:

What makes you think they won't get them?

Stand I can understand and will be hard enough to police , but I don't think they can police people not singing or shouting

There was certainly no indication at all that people shout not sing/shout etc at the Chelsea friendly, and plenty of both went on.

Spurs' stadium signage does not suggest against this either.

I think you dreamt it all up. I remember plenty of shouting (of an encouraging nature, obvs) at the test event. I think it's practically impossible not to shout at a football match.

The atmosphere was surprisingly good for the Chelsea test game. Better than some of the league / cup games we had in recent years.

From the Argus the other day:

'But Barber dismissed any suggestion that singing and cheering will be banned.

He said: “You don’t want to take people’s enjoyment away of coming to the game.

“If they turn up and behave exactly the same way as they might in their own living room, for example, what’s the incentive for them to come back to the game?

“We want them to enjoy themselves, feel as if they are back at a live sports event again and therefore a light touch with the stewarding, a light touch with the rules and regulations, as far as it’s possible, is really important.

“Clearly, people’s safety is paramount but we don’t want to take away their enjoyment.

“By the time someone has shouted or screamed, it’s done.

“What does a steward do then? ‘Which one of you shouted, don’t do it again?’ It’s almost impossible to police.'

He obviously hasn't talked to my cat then. He leaves the house when I put the football on, as he knows what's coming.

Why would they sell food and drink at the urinals?
