Cancel it now and City can have back to back seasons where we've won every available domestic trophy. Works for me :)

In my mind, either all the fixtures are fulfilled or it's null and void; nothing inbetween. The whole integrity of the sport falls down with anything else.

Candle sellers in Merseyside must be laughing their bollox off right now.

Anything Gordon Taylor has had a hand in does not fill me with any confidence similar to the Prem ££££.

Who plays in the next CL then? You cant just give it back to City, Chelsea, Spurs and Liverpool because of last season.

I think they will find a way to play it out, even if it's just a bit of a pisstake with games every 3 days for 3 weeks in late July behind closed doors.

Theres just so many massive landmines around voiding or settling the league as it is that finishing it before the next one makes most sense.

Just scrub the Champions league and the Europa league for a season

One suggestion being made is the current season resumes next January through to the end of March. The next season then starts in early June - don't know where the Euros fit into all that?

I dont think theres any chance they vote for that.

It would make more sense to just cut out the 2020 international breaks in August, October and November - that gives you 6 weeks extra to the club season and only friendlies were scheduled anyway.

You could double up league weeks so we need 5 weeks to finish the season.

Can liverpool win the title this week, if we lose our game?

they could only have won it this week if we lost to burnley and the arses,they cant be crowned when we have several games in hand

Just scrub the Champions league and the Europa league for a season

Just scrub a €3.25 Billion per year competition?

About as likely as we just end football forever.

West Ham join Arsenal, Bournemouth, Chelsea, Everton, Leicester and Man City with players in self isolation:

No way - that would mean we dont have a meaningful league game for 16 months?
