Does this not give these teams an unfair advantage?

No it doesn't. First four weeks after the lockdown in England when football restarted saw an increase in home wins in the Premier League (35% prior with fans to 48% without fans), in La Liga (36% to 42%) and in Serie A (32% to 45%) Only Germany bucked the trend when it went from 33% of home teams normally winning to 32% without fans.

Fewer draws, more home wins: How has lack of fans, extra subs affected Europe’s top football leagues

Football has returned after the coronavirus pandemic, but without fans and a whole new set of protocols and rule changes.

Seems playing in front of your fans is harder than not which is weird as home results are usually better than away

I think for most of those clubs, Portsmouth, Ipswich etc, no doubt their loyal fans have already paid out for a season ticket. For those clubs now having to pay out to open the stadium and make it safe, clean and properly stewarded will cost them without any new money coming in. I think this will hurt rather than help them financially.

Be a bit weird if we weren't allowed into our ground because of lockdown but we could travel 200+ miles to spread it into areas that have low infection rates :lol:

Can’t see next year being much better even if the vaccines are approved will take all year to take effect across the population. Just watching the cricket in Aus on TV with a decent crowd in. Like a different world

Its pissed me off, I work in hospital in a clinical role. I've done extra hours throughout this whole thing, pulling 50 hour weeks for the vast majority of the first lockdown. Never seen my family or owt since February. Risk getting the f***ing virus only to be thanked by a pay freeze (not a nurse, but have patient contact). Its like that across every role in NHS, healthcare and the public sector. I feel your frustration too marra.

The whole thing, not just sporting grounds is shit and not thought out

An example, I was travelling up to Sunderland from Exeter on 18th December staying for 3 days, meeting family and giving out xmas presents.

I cant do that now, but I can from 22nd December

Don't see the problem meself. Wherever you're headed just book yourself in for an eye test. Seems to work for some other people

Given that anyone attending is more than likely to be a season ticket holder, the costs of getting fans in will probably have a negative short term impact in their cash flow.

So when can have fans back it will be 1 fan for every 12 seats or 1 fan every 24 seats if only 2k allowed.... So take Exeter 8k capacity and if 4k allowed that's 1 fan for every 2 seats.... Totally illogical it should have been calculated pro rata according to stadium capacity

The 4k is s maximum, and can be reduced where necessary to maintain social distancing.
