I'm sick of all this

[DangerousSausage]

I considered calling this topic "I'm sick of football", but it's not the actual game I'm sick of.

I know this is difficult for everyone involved, but I'm fed up of all the wrangling about what happens to the football season. I'm sick of the powers that be insisting that football is somehow more special than everything else and that the leagues have to be completed at all costs. I'm sick of the lack of regard for players' safety. I'm sick of the utter disregard for the fans and the willingness to play out the fixtures in a distorted league in empty stadiums, simply for the sake of TV money. I'm sick of the inability or unwillingness to accept the reality that the rest of us have long had to get to grips with.

Notts are sitting securely in a play-off spot, yet who would be excited at a return to action in front of empty stadiums? Who feels giddy at the prospect of a promotion party that none of us can attend? My adopted team in Germany are actually sitting in an automatic promotion place, which would be a second straight promotion, yet I've reached the point that I couldn't care less what division they play in next season. Football has fallen far down my list of priorities, and judging by the level of activity on here and on other football forums, I'm not alone.

I'd love the football to start again (once it's safe!) and to be there to see it. What division we're in seems irrelevant to me right now. What is really turning me off is that the powers that be seem to think that finishing this ruined season is some kind of holy grail and takes precedence over people's safety.

Absolutely agree with you 100% @DangerousSausage

Football couldn't be further from my mind at the moment. In the end money talks

Agree with the sentiment of @DangerousSausage . The important thing to remember is the legal and financial context the clubs find themselves in.  Players contracts expire 30 June so everything needs sorted by then. Vanarama National league rely on gate income rather than the large amounts of EFL tv distribution monies. 

Firstly we need to hope Vanarama bosses have provided documents to the EFL that next season can be completed. Anything else, then Stevenage will not get relegated.

National League will need to play out the play offs even behind close doors.

But really football is secondary at the moment..health is the most important thing now.

Just everything right now is too much.

I haven't been interested in using the internet and, I can't force myself. It's not productive at all but taking a step back does help. I notice that football in the UK might be played behind closed doors, I'm not sure that will make any impact.

Just wish for normality, yet more importantly for people to be safe and well.
