Potential cancellation of games - Coronavirus

[The binman chronicles]

The euros will go for sure I think.
Especially when it's been held all over europe.

Bad year to choose to have it all over Europe.

Just a thought?

If the league get scrapped does this mean there are no Sky Money payments for where you finished in the league?

Is this a reason?

You'd like to think they would agree to equal shares but you know they won't.

Couldn't have foreseen this .
But it means unlikely to happen now

So Everton top of the league when two world wars happened- not awarded the title.

What do you think will happen if the league is cancelled due to the great toilet roll war of 2020?

Starting to genuinely think it will end this season now. All the experts are saying this won't be a quick thing the virus is expected to last all through the summer at least, it won't be something that they can get a grip of now it's too late.

They either cancel the leagues or cancel the Euros (and Olympics) and all we know what the sporting bodies will prefer. As cruel and unbelievably unlucky as it would be to many different clubs throughout football, public health is something that simply can't be put behind sports and money. It's becoming just a question of when.

It would be very unfair on the teams near relegation if all behind closed doors. So much pressure on something never done before.

But it’s risking everyone’s health if not

Postponing seems the best bet.

Postponing seems the best bet.

The season tho?

 

[arminisgod]

All done tomorrow I reckon

Our first derby win in a decade and none of us will be there to see it.

Nailed on

On Peston then he said the Government are holding a COBRA meeting tomorrow were they're expected to say the containment phase has failed and we move into the delay phase, surely once the government have announced this then the games this weekend are postponed

 

[ChesterBlue]

I reckon they should postpone the games after watching those Dortmund PSG highlights - football with no fans is awful

How bad would this be financially for us? Presumably Sky would be insured so would still have to fully pay out? So we would just miss out on gate receipts for a few games?
