On February 14, Beijing time, after the end of the Spring Festival holiday, the news of the Chinese Super League finally gradually increased. Previously, there have been media reports that the new season of the Chinese Super League will start in late April, for the new season, fans are most concerned about the issue of the format, most of the fans are looking forward to the Chinese Super League can restore the home and away system. There are actually not only fans who have such expectations, but also the Football Association.
In the past two seasons, the Chinese Super League has adopted a centralized competition system, which is actually quite helpless. In the case that all kinds of concerts can be carried out normally, why a football game cannot be carried out normally is the doubt in the hearts of many fans.
The centralized play system not only distances fans and clubs, but also reduces the club's income a lot, which is one of the reasons why many teams are facing difficulties today. In addition, at present, in the Chinese Super League, except for a few teams such as Shandong Taishan, which have completed the share reform, the share reform work of other clubs is difficult to promote, and the competition system is also one of the obstacles. It is unacceptable that companies put money into it and don't see the team playing.
Combining many factors, it is necessary to restore the home and away system in the new season of the Chinese Super League. According to the well-known journalist Ma Dexing, in January this year, the Football Association has communicated with relevant departments on the issue of fully restoring the home and away system, and has submitted an application report, hoping to restore the home and away system.
In order to restore the home and away system, the Football Association has also formulated a number of sets of plans, first of all, the club's home field needs to report a number of spare venues. Ma Dexing reported that when the 18 teams of the Chinese Super League reported home this season, they not only needed to report the first home, but also the second and third home, and these venues needed to meet the relevant requirements of the league and be ready to be put into use.
The preparation of 3 home stadiums is mainly to deal with unexpected situations, once the first home field can not play normally due to the epidemic and other reasons, then it is necessary to use the second or third home. So these 3 home stadiums should be in different regions, even in the surrounding cities.
In fact, after 2 seasons of tournament-based leagues, we already have considerable experience and know how to run the league well under the epidemic. Therefore, we should have this confidence and restore the home-and-away system with all the plans in place.
Although this is not something that the FA can decide on its own, we still hope that the fans of the new season can cheer for their team on their own home.
