LIverpool and Arsenal get liquidated too. Probably a lot faster as they have huge wage bills. Essentially if you want to look at who's in most trouble, look at the wage bills of each club. Turnover is going to be close to zero so far for 2020.

Project Restart: Premier League doctors raise concerns over resuming season

A number of Premier League club doctors have raised a range of concerns with league bosses over plans to resume the season, BBC Sport has learned.

A number of Premier League club doctors have raised a range of concerns with league bosses over plans to resume the season, BBC Sport has learned.

One issue that the senior medics have sought assurances over includes their own liability and insurance cover if players contract the virus.

The Premier League has also been asked to provide some clarity over medical protocols, testing and player welfare.

The Premier League is hopeful of a potential 8 June resumption.

The 20 club doctors have been holding their own discussions about Project Restart - the label given to plans to resume action - with a view to feeding their thoughts into the Premier League's leadership.

A Premier League source told the BBC that they viewed the move by the medics as a natural part of the process with clubs, and a means of reaching "the best possible set of protocols".

They also confirmed that the league was in talks with insurance companies over the issue of club and doctor liability, and that this would be brought up with government representatives this week.

The Premier League is represented on a cross-sport working group of medical experts and public health officials which will meet for the second time in a week on Wednesday.

The panel is devising the health and hygiene measures that players, managers and club staff will be asked to agree to before full training and then competition can resume, but only if the government deems it safe to do so.

The government is set to review its lockdown measures later this week, with the Premier League meeting to vote on the plans next Monday. A number of players and sports medics have already voiced their concerns about whether it is safe to return to action.

Eamonn Salmon, the chief executive of the Football Medicine and Performance Association (FMPA), has told BBC Sport that opinion among doctors and physios at English football clubs regarding resumption plans was varied.

Speaking last week, he said: "I guess the views of our members will be a kind of snapshot of society really.

"There are those who think it can be done, there are those that are doubtful and there are those that probably suggest it is an impossible task.

But that's where the compromise comes in. You're ruling it out as its IFs, BUTs, and maybes based on what COULD happen. City could still win the title, Norwich could win the FA cup. Forget about what could happen and look at what has happened and make a decision on that.

You either abolish a league that's almost 80% complete or figure a way that finishes it with some structure.

You can't throw out the games to play and go off what's happened to decide relegations/promotions - its apples and oranges, unfair on all teams who still have a chance of sorting themselves out, on the pitch. There's no compromise. Speak to Amiens fans for their views on PPG.

The premier League (fa are a joke) either decide to put this season on hold, to be resumed whenever it can be safely, as it was before, including fa cup etc, and thus screwing up several future seasons to boot, or they call it with no relegations or promotions, and we move onto trying to prep for next season ( I doubt there will be one as it stands, but hope I am wrong). No other options should be near the table, nevermind on it.

I know which one makes more sense to me personally.

The desperation to restart in any way shape or form, and some of the possible solutions suggested in reports by the premier league, are crass, ludicrous and beggar belief, especially as this virus continues to take lives and have such a massive, damaging effect on our normal daily life.

Haha oh really? Whats the gist of the criticism? I'm not well liked amongst online reds it seems. It borders on an obsessive hatred. I seem to have the same affect on them as Holden did on Mark Chapman!

A delay to the restart meeting, let alone the restart itself. Stick a fork in it, it's done.

They have to get a consensus quite quickly, and it looks to me that there are a multitude of multi layered problems to still resolve. They also don't look like an organisation that has any ability to begin broaching them.

They're running out of road to kick the can down now. My only hope is they act responsibly and give us a chance to not disrupt next season too heavily. I'm not convinced that will be the case.

We are in May now.
The FA Cup final is usually soon and that was always the end of the season for me until the CL jumped in.
We're miles away from sorting anything out and it could become an utter joke.

Yes they are. And the sides at the bottom know it, hence why they've made their demand. Sit in for a couple more weeks and it's cancelled. We are still no closer to any league going back.

As for the 2nd part, yes I'm seeing a lot of Liverpool fans threaten this. If you don't restart this season, then next season won't re-start. That simply won't happen. Fresh season, fresh rules. More importantly though, teams will be desperate to play and football goes bankrupt. I saw a PL chairman say if next season is cancelled 95% of PL clubs go bankrupt. Probably seems a bit much but in the right ballpark. United perhaps won't due to cash reserves, maybe ourselves, City, Wolves owners bail them out (wolves questionable). Everyone else though goes bust (as we do if Moshiri doesn't just keep us affloat). In that context compromises get made, and their silly arguments about precedent don't hold any truck.
