its surely as simple as deciding whether the season ends now and places are recognised (all places) or it’s voided. If it was close at the top no one would dream of ending the season now because it’s completely unfair on teams who have harsher fixture lists etc. Everyone would be in favour of voiding. The principle is exactly the same except people are complicating it because the media’s favourite team are a long way ahead. It doesn’t matter. They could have won it weeks ago, it wouldn’t matter. It wouldn’t matter if they were 1 point ahead. The powers that be either decide the season ends now for all teams where they are or it’s null and void. If it ends now then congrats to Liverpool for being champions but by the way Villa are down and United aren’t top 4,be ready for the law suits. If it’s voided then everything is voided. There can’t be a convenient mid ground where the season is voided for everyone apart from Liverpool who just get given a title.
I agree, I don't think you can void and award to one team only, but not award for places to other teams.
This is why I firmly believe the season will resume at some point. Even if only for a short time to equalise the number of games played. There are so many different potential resolutions still up in the air and we won't know which are possible until the world returns to some sort of normality.
This could be weeks, it could be months. But the most obvious solution for all, as far as I see it, is that whenever that time is, the season resumes and completes to a new schedule and next season is adjusted accordingly, which is already starting to happen in terms of UEFA qualifiers being pushed back and Euro 2021 being postponed.
Next season is no more important than this one, the actions taken thus far seem to confirm that thinking, so if they have to shift it back and contracts have to be adapted then that's something that could feasibly be accommodated, perhaps more so than the issues that voiding would cause across the country.
Will be interesting to see how it all plays out in the coming months.
