Yes, although the local games would probably have attracted bigger gates under normal circumstances.
Why would you assume this logic? Some fans would welcome (within an unbalanced but competed season) the Plymouth home and away fixtures being completed by October if behind closed doors or with home fans only. In the 'early stages' are you inferring less travel for the convenience of teams (overnights/fatigue) or safety of away supporters. A local derby I suspect would not be welcome by the veto-police until a Covid vaccine or far more 'science' was available. At least the Xmas Market won't need to be factored into the December fixtures. I await to see if the league tell us of any underlying general logic in how the list is eventually generated and of course you can't please all the people all of the time
No, I can't wait. It represents another significant step towards having some football to watch, our club to support, to seeing the new players in action, to seeing Michael Appleton's new style of play taking shape, to finding out which fixtures we may be able to watch in person, and most significantly to enabling our club to generate at least some revenue. All good.
already demonstrated by aberdeen. if there are lots of postponements everyone will have an eye on points per game.
I've not assumed anything, I was guessing. Partly because it reduces squads of players travelling all over the country (presumably, for the time being, over two or three busses). I'd suggest the less hotel stops would be the preference given the current circumstances.
Will that affect the prize money from the competition?
That's a good point. The main appeal of the competition is the money.
