I don't get it when most of the World are doing the complete opposite but you have to trust that they know what they're doing off all the expert advice and science.

Maybe next Tuesday's UEFA meeting is why they're dragging their feet. Waiting for someone else to make a decision for them? Then they aren't the 'bad guys' that took our National game.

Crazy business all around. I'm still in military reserve so I might get called up if we decide to quarantine the whole country like they've done in Italy.

I get no relegation, but ending with no champion seems silly. Why not just give it to whoever is at the top on the weekend.

They have to act and suspend/ cancel the season now surely/?

Football is completely irrelevant when lives are at stake.

Privately, officials admit very little chance of football resuming as early as Apr 4th so further extension then seems almost certain, unless season is abandoned, but review looks set to happen then if Prem League agree with EFL

The Premiership and Women's Football league follow on from the EFL. I'm sure Liverpool fans can wait a bit longer for their league win after all they have already waited 30 years...

About the best that could be hoped for.

I'm not personally optimistic we'll see any football again this year, let alone in April when it's set to peak. But at least now we have a time frame to aim for and review as we go. All we can currently do.

Football should be back in May. But is it too late for football? Maybe the best thing is to cancel all leagues and give silverware where you can.
