I'm going to be in the vast majority but without STFC I don't think I'd really bother with football anymore. I'll still probably watch the odd game in the pub as a neutral but in all honesty during COVID, football was not really missed by me at all and I reckon i've fallen out of love with the game unfortunately.
Phoenix club, would probably peak my interest eventually but I think i'd find other things to do at weekends.

^^^^^ I'm not sure which way I'd go if a pheonix club emerged. All in or occasional interest.
or I might do the odd Ciren Town game instead.

Like a phoenix from the ashes....
Still watch most games on the box but interest outside of my team and the league they are in becomes more peripheral by the year.

Might be naive here, but surely club owners knew what was likely to happen and have acted accordingly. It does seem, though, that it’s pretty much business as usual.
There has been an emphasis on recruiting younger players which I presume cost less but if clubs are still maxing out the salary cap I can’t see what difference that will make.
We all hope any Bogle money is being kept in reserve.

There are always Wurst things that could happen I guess.

Definately Phoenix club, I cannot ever contemplate following a different club at any level ever.
Only 2 teams, Swindon and England.

Swindon Spartans. 1879 all over again. Pints while leaning against the boundary fence. I'm looking forward to it already.

Phoenix club. If a stack of clubs go, the standard of any new non league may not be too dissimilar anyway. I made an effort last year to get back on board with football, not just STFC - and now listen to NTT20 and watch Quest start to finish.... and it makes following Town that much better, when you know who to be looking out for, and goings on at other clubs.

What a prick Sean Dyche is. For a man whose entire career was in the lower leagues, needs to remember where he came from. For an alternative standpoint you only had to ask the Burnley manager, Sean Dyche, who took a dim view of Premier League clubs being pressured into bailing out their poorer counterparts. “Does that mean every hedge fund manager who is incredibly successful does that to the hedge fund managers who are not so successful?” he sniffed. “Do the restaurants who are surviving look after the ones who are not? If you are going to apply it to football, you have to apply it to everyone and every business.” (Congratulations, Sean: you’ve just invented social democracy!)
