Essix Blue Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 For the football league seems to be middle of next week, 12th May, according to Coventry’s CEO. He’s said the league needs 54 days to complete the season, plus 3 weeks notice for players training. As it seems the agreement by the FL is that the season must be completed by end of July, that means they must decide by middle of next week if there’s to be a resumption or not.

Guest wilyfox Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Once Bozza reveals his plans on Sunday, the powers that be in football can make theirs. Personally, I think play will resume - but it will be farcical. Empty stadiums are inevitable and some outcomes will be biased. One thing I've not heard mentioned is viable grounds in the football league. The prem claims that only certain grounds can be used and policed, what about other leagues?

Dutch McLovin Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Just call it now. Season cant be finished. Null and void. Its basically a natural disaster that couldn't be prevented. Start again when safe to do so as if this season didn't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just void this season, forget about it and concentrate on preparing to start next season in August. The PL though are desperate to finish this season due to the financial implications if they don't. The possible loss of TV and sponsorship revenues from here and abroad is their prime motivator to restart in June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Null and void a competition that’s 80% completed and had £100’s of millions invested in it? Im moving into a new build home. Last time I drove past it appeared about 80% finished but obviously the contractors had left site for the foreseeable and as yet no news on will construction will begin again. Wonder if they’ll scrap it and rebuild a new one when it’s safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
