POLL: How and When Should Football Come Back?


We are all missing football so much right now. All sports, in fact. I’m pretty sure I could watch a marbles tournament right about now, and I would be completely engaged for hours. I found myself attracted to the TV screen like a moth to light when my kids were playing football in Mario and Sonic at the Olympic games this past week. I am desperate, I think I would watch just about anything at this point.

Closed doors? Or no football?

With the numbers of cases and deaths from COVID-19 in Italy finally starting to drop, rumors are starting to fly that players could be asked to return to training as soon as May fourth, with matches starting as soon as the end of May. This scenario would be an attempt to finish the 2019/20 season on the pitch.

However, this scenario certainly does not include fans in the stadium. In fact, some health experts are predicting that it would not be safe to have fans in the stadiums until January 2021. So today I am asking your opinion… how and when should football come back? Take the poll and feel free to share the link.
