I suppose if this Social Distancing continued well on towards the end of the year, the question might be can clubs afford to play to empty stadiums for an indefinite period?

Is Withdean the answer? We'd certainly be distanced from the players, and hardly an enclosed gathering
The PL is totally driven by £££ and will still be posting optimistic but completely unrealistic ambitions in an increasingly desperate attempt to limit the financial damage but this is people's lives we're talking about here and it will only take 1 unnecessary C19 death attributable to their greed and they will be completely ****ed.

Substitute football for rush-hour. How on earth will public transport work with social distancing?

As with the players, breathing on each other, coughing and spitting and almost constantly touching each other. How do you get round that?

Maybe those who have paid upfront for the year should be picked first?
Tell them to stop coughing spitting and touching each other.
They're footballers not Bob Carolgees.

Well that would have to be the start of 21/22 season. Which obviously means no football next season. You can get away with a few games behind closed doors. You cannot play a whole season like that. We have to be sensible and realistic. Unless we can return to a position of previous normality, all mingling with each other, socially interactive, travelling together, eating and drinking together and sitting in close proximity to each other, then its simply not worth risking our lives to attend a game of football.
I, for one will not attend a game of football until a vaccine is available. If that takes a year, so be it. I want to be around to enjoy the next few years.

IMO we won't see any professional football in this country until a vaccine is widely available. Best case for next games would be winter 2021 - a year or so from now.

Woah tiger! Do you mean November? That's too far off, and it means we'd have been doing this social distancing fandango all that while. I'm sticking with end of Jan 2021. Pretty please

No I've got the same time frame as you - Jan 2021 back to normal. Based on having a viable vaccine and increased levels of antibody testing by around October / November time. Quicker than normal but with GSK collaborating and an Oxbridge type confident of a vaccine by September I think that's reasonable.
January 2021 is both in the winter and in 2021

TFFT.
I thought you'd gone stark raving bonkers!
