Absolutely ridiculous proposal. should be ashamed for putting that forward. Partick thistle could get relegated bu a margin of less than 0.4 of a point for example.
Wonder if this will set any sort of precedent anywhere else in europe

Just pure guesstimation Blue, some idiotic ministers are even suggesting schools could reopen after Easter, so by that time you'd assume things will be a whole lot better.

Fair enough, dont see it myself personally
lets put a end to all this talk of restarting the leagues if or when the lock down is lifted and forget any restart the season in may or june just forget it just cancel or void it and then ???
give something back to the grass roots and lower leagues clubs by having pre-seasons friendlies in england and wales only. even have a special cup setup for missing out of the FA cup something like the old summer tournament we had in the 1970s would love to go and watch football at oldham bolton preston rochdale and others
i know city would take thousands to games and sold out signs would be up. so come on united liverpool and the rest help your neighbours and give them a good payday and play friendlies in pre-season in your local towns and not half the world away to make some dollors

Let's just think this through, first there is no evidence that anything will be calming anytime. But let's just say it does. Then clubs would have to call back players from wherever they are. Unless they show signs of or have had contact with the Virus. Travel restrictions would have to be laxed or removed. Then they would have to train, so training staff would have to come in, if not infected, but don't forget they get 4 weeks after close season, they have been out longer during the lockdown. The 2 metre rule would need to be lifted. Then they would be asked to play maybe 3 games in a week. And then clubs may be without out of contract players ,e.g. David Silva, and then you would need all the back up staff to be available. All this and probably more in 2 weeks at the end of June?

I would have thought a virtually risk free sport like the British Open being cancelled would indicate that no contact sport will be taking place before August particularly if it involves unnecessary travel

Don't disagree with you, buy think the open decision was more based on crowds not golfers.
