Tis a nonsense isn't it. One minute they make a big deal of the CFA with the Schalke game and then a few days later they play an official game but it's behind closed. AND without any explanation to all the loyal fans who regularly watch the 18's play.
maybe there's a couple of 'secret' trialists they don't want you too see?
Almost 100% certain that isn't the reason. I have just been told " Not all the matches that are on at the Academy are going to be open for spectators. It will only be selected matches that are open"
In other words I have been told nothing we didn't know already. Communication at it's best (not) and caring for the fans at it's worst.
Eventually somebody on the inside but not an official voice has said "I think it's only BCD because of safety concerns with simultaneous Cityzens event at CFA. Don't quote me as its not my area but..."
2 things going on at the CFA at the same time and they are not fully ready for it yet. Why couldn't they just say that? slightly embarrassing I guess but not as much imo as having to play behind closed doors and not explaining to loyal fans why.
