Yeah Dutch league as good as finished. Most likely they are going to announce no league winners, no one relegated.

With a three week lockdown confirmed, there will no training until the very end of April at the earliest. There is no chance the league is restarting, it's done, finished for this season now.

I'd be absolutely amazed if they found a way to finish the season, How long are the players suppose to keep fit for? It'll be June/July soon and they'll want a break. Playing Football in your back garden can only do so much, The FA are probably just waiting for the other leagues to void the season so they can just be the sheep.

To be honest looking at the situation as positively as I can I think even by August and the scheduled start of 2020-21 there will still be quite severe restrictions in place, this isn't going away quickly.

I think it is just wishful thinking on their part, even without my "bitter blue"hat on,I cannot see present season being sustainable in this current situation,it is scary, truly scary and we have a lot more angst and despair to go through yet, sport will be on the back burner for a long time I think.

If you assume that players and club staff aren’t human beings then yeah, I suppose it could go ahead behind closed doors.
Can't see it happening, if we are not sufficiently recovered in general to have crowds restored, the smaller but still significant policing and ambulance requirements aren't going to be permitted. Back in full or not at all
the desire from many, including impartial watchers of footy, will have their desire for talking football blunted as we will be faced with scenes of sports halls full of coffins, harrowing scenes of desperately ill people on hospital beds/corridors, and after weeks and weeks of isolation, we will want to put the past behind us. Football rightly won't be far up on many people's list of things to worry about. Sadly, many of us on here are going to lose family and friends to this virus before this year is out, indeed, we will lose some of our friends and contributors to the site. Football doesn't matter.
Unless footballers suddenly fall into the key worker category then they won't be training for at least 3 months.
Cloud cuckoo land the lot of them if they think behind closed doors is happening anytime soon.
I still argue you can't start a new one until this season comes to some sort of conclusion. Years of court cases & TV rights delays
But why just move the problem into other seasons?
The issue is still going to be there it just depends on when you bite the bullet so to speak.
