Cancelling this season's Premier League

[aazak]

BBC: "Inter Milan's home game against Sampdoria is among four Serie A fixtures on Sunday postponed over fears of the spread of Corona virus".

Have we reached the point where we need to consider cancelling the rest of the season for the sake of humanity?

We cancelled ours in August

We reached that point as soon as Liverpool went top.

If it hits this country then unfortunately it is the only sensible thing to do. Also would be nice if all the RS players and staff could do some hospital visits to those badly affected by the disease and give open mouth kisses with added tongue action to make those patients feel better as champions elect...

Deffo.

Public safety is more important than a transient league season.

Seems the right decision , and to be fair to everybody I’ll sign the inevitable RS petition that they should be awarded a “ This is what we could have won replica trophy”

I would imagine that if they were to cancel the rest of the season, they would determine that enough games were played for it to be official and declare our rivals were the winners.

If we continue the season, it's at least possible (if insanely unlikely) that they find a way to boot it.

In the case of pandemic the league will award the koff trophy ro whoever is leading the league at the time of cancelling the league.

A banner will be displayed by all home teams in the following season stating "koff <insert winners name>"

I look forward to seeing us showing due respect with a rousing koff rs next year.

Liverpool FC gave it a go but public circumstances intervened. Alas.

This season should be cancelled for the sake of humanity.... but that threat is not posed by the Corona virus

It'll comliment last years on klipperty's mantlepiece

With the virus now in Spain and Italy surely Britain and Ireland cannot be far behind
Games either cancelled or played behind closed doors.
Imagine the scum winning the PL at the sewer pit and no Red Poo there to see it

 

[Brisan123]

One small point on the poll
You do realise there is a very real possibility the open top bus will get vandalised

 

[TheBigIguana]

This started as a joke but is now much more serious of a possibility. Genuinely not sure what Italy do if it gets worse. I guess everything behind closed doors?
