    Not as bad as the Indian cricket still going. Here in oz our Football we are getting 76k crowds. Now it's close to winter you watch the poo hit the roof.
    Ps don't tell anyone I was here.

    I noticed the crowds at the first couple of T20s in India, but then grounds were closed, there are no fans at the IPL matches, and the messages about masks and distancing etc are pretty regular (bit of closing door after horse has skedaddled, but better late than never?)

    There were 4000 at Wembley (sanctioned by the authorities), for the Carabao Cup final.

    That's the thing with covid the way it is over there what are they doing playing in the first place doesn't matter about no crowds.

    I guess it's a combination of wanting to give some indication that "normal" might return in some form or other and the commercial damage of cancellation (you could level the same question at football, not just here but everywhere, rock vs hard place, no easy answers).

    Good luck with MS Support (even in normal times!)😉
