The Premier League will play remaining games abroad
The Premier League will take advantage of its top secret planning to introduce a 39th game, to allow it to play the remaining games this season at foreign locations. [more to follow]

They haven't employed her for her brains. Probably have due to her undying favouritism to them lot.

The biggest problem with what she said is you know you usually play the reverse fixture of against the teams you played first up around Christmas, so like in Koeman's second season when we got a terrible run of fixtures to start with basically you have already played most of the top teams twice by January, how is that fair compared against a club that got the opposite to that. Again that season only 2 out of the last 12 fixtures were against the top teams.

Pretty obvious we would accumulate more points at the back end of that season. And no doubt one club will get the worst situation and one will get a better one each year. Can't finish the season, can't award any places.

I think she did a perfect job of explaining the utter stupidity and complete disregard/lack of understanding of the consequences for gifting Liverpool a trophy. In one sentence she conveyed the impossibility of it perfectly. Thats going to stick with people.
 
The EFL. have stated they will finish the present season. This means the PL will follow suit Im sure. So says Rick Parry - I wonder why he wants it completed?

What they want is largely irrelevant. They’ll get what the PL tells them they’re having and they in turn will be driven by both UEFA and their main sponsors, plus Sky.
