That tells me that attending the ground is still more popular and groups don’t watch in sheds etc. If they just wanted to save money, they could do that now.
I think the ones who are less likely to attend will be the ones who go purely to watch the match not the ones who go for a drink with their mates.
If they are going to broadcast live, they will need more than one camera and a more professional set up and editing or it won’t attract enough to make a big difference to crowd numbers.
People viewing through illegal streams do not give a raspberries about the clubs they purport to support.
Possibly so but that’s not the point. Those attending now have no need to if money is their only concern and that won’t change if all games are streamed.
I concede it may make a difference in terrible weather but apart from then, people will still go for the social aspect if that’s what attracts them. Those who can’t attend for a myriad of reasons may put money in the coffers by paying either for a single or a seasonal stream.
