Coronavirus: Football Discussion Thread

I have thought of this

Mo Farah is running the marathon,he is far ahead of the pack when a stray comet lands on the road and stops them all finishing the race,they won't say to Mo you take the gold because you were ahead because he didn't finish the race

Simples


But

Mo Salah is running the marathon,he is far ahead of the pack when a stray comet lands on the road and stops them.
He falls over, is awarded a penalty and the comet is sent off
 
Senior executives are now talking about June being optimistic as a potential time to restart the season rather than the previous hope of having 30 June as a date to conclude it.

Premier League clubs are holding back from asking first-team players to accept wage cuts or deferrals for fear of sparking a transfer frenzy by breaching their contracts.

Senior figures from Premier League clubs, the broadcast industry, and European/International football administration are convinced the COVID-19 crisis will lead to financial problems for worldwide broadcasters, with less money for sports rights in the near future.

English clubs have major concerns, from players and club personnel, about completing European obligations in their current format which requires regular travel. The FA are likely to express concerns regarding air travel, airports, and hotels to UEFA delegates.

UEFA are set to discuss ideas designed to minimise travel and lower the risk of players and staff contracting COVID-19. One idea is to hold one-legged rounds from the quarter finals, while an end of season mini tournament in one destination, has been suggested.

This last one is the indy so might be delnay

One of the more drastic suggestions has 'picked up momentum' in the last few days: To void the current Premier League season.

At least four Premier League clubs now favour the idea. PL clubs would collectively lose up to £1.2bn if the season is voided. All of the current top-half teams are determined to finish the campaign.
