Stifler Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 It’s actually 3 weeks. Anyway it’s a good start. We could easily go 1-2 months with the season being postponed so long as Euro 2020 is cancelled/put back a year. It will put us in a good position to see where the situation as a whole leaves us. Even when it comes back I can see some games being played behind closed door, at least initially. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 As if it’s gonna be any better in 2 weeks what else can they do, its better to wait the few weeks and see where things stand then than just cancel it now. Theres no guidebook telling everyone the right answer here everyone is flying by the seat of their pants and hoping for the best Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 i'll bet we're one of the two teams begging to cancel the season now big mike will see some savings there on bonuses and shit, who knows maybe he could even stop paying them force majeure steve bacon will get a 13th place finish on his record, job done Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they’d have postponed it till at least May to honest Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonTastic Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Apparently the clauses in the contract with the TV money are so crazy that they'll not want to cancel the season so think we just forget that happening. That's probably been mentioned more than once in here though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St1pe Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 @Colo's Short and Curlies I see your points but surely it would be more beneficial to do absolutely no sporting events until the new season.. assuming it has passed. I haven’t seen a solution where there aren’t clubs that will feel aggrieved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colos Short and Curlies Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 @Colo's Short and Curlies I see your points but surely it would be more beneficial to do absolutely no sporting events until the new season.. assuming it has passed. I haven’t seen a solution where there aren’t clubs that will feel aggrieved. It's not being aggrieved that's an issue - of course they will be winners and losers in any scenario. It's more a legal position (of course I don't know what the actual terms regarding season finishes are, and there may not actually be any legal recourse available) and it is guaranteed that Villa and Bournemouth would take the league to court if the season was cancelled and they were relegated, similarly Leeds / West Brom if they weren't promoted Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LV Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Given the info Boris made in his statement isn’t that about the time our government seems to think the virus will be at its peak? Yep. Ridiculous. Should have been until at least May imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Given the info Boris made in his statement isn’t that about the time our government seems to think the virus will be at its peak? They can make another decision closer to the time. It's a sensible choice to buy time to gain more info. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
