maybe, maybe not. it doesnt make sense to plan disruption the next season as some seem keen to do.

Going by the medical experts and scientists, we’ve got this disease for many more months, into a year or two, to come.

The summer Olympics are close to being abandoned.

Unless a vaccine is miraculously discovered a year ahead of that envisaged, there’s no way in the world that PL players will report back to training mid June 2020, with PL games starting in early August.

We won’t get out of a relegation dogfight that easily, Albion and Norwich fans championing the null and void solution, NOT for altruistic purposes.

You’re 100% certain that 2019/20 is complete and that Brighton have escaped relegation? Where’re you getting that info from?

i just read someone reckon the disease is around for another year, so we can confidently write off 19/20. only question is how they close it now.

Yep. They've set the precedent. Surely that will ripple upwards?

BBC:

'UEFA could authorise one-legged knockout matches for some Champions League and Europa League ties after postponing the finals of all this season's major competitions'

What will players do with their other legs ?

All Leagues in Level 3/4/5/6 have asked the FA to cancel this season now.
They wanted uniformity across all levels but are fed up waiting for the Vanorama League to decide what there plans are.
So these levels have instigated their plans (as player contracts run out in May and most cannot afford extensions).

It is now up to the FA to decide "how" not when the season ends. 2 options proposed are:
1. Each Team is given an average points per game based on the season to date. This figure is the x by the number of games left.
2. Season is Null and Void.

Final 9 games shouldn’t be played but completed by mathematical prediction based on possession and XG stats. We’d be ****ing laughing.
