EPL 19/20

@Siam there is too much money in prem league I reckon - they’ll have to make it work.

It’s likely curtains for Europa and champs league tho.

@MajorRage be interesting to see the numbers on lost revenue given tv rights and season ticket holders are paid up. Casuals, corporates, some merchandise etc. Maybe not catastrophic?

[Cyclops]

Liverpool stranded 3 wins short of the title. Even if the season gets going again its like a whole new season and anything could happen.

[mariner4life]

It's 2 wins. 2 from the final 9. Assuming City can win all 10 of theirs.

Story this morning is that the plan is if the season gets cancelled, Liverpool would be crowned Champions 2019-2020, no relegation, top two Championship sides to come up, no playoffs. League of 22 next season which will start earlier, 5 teams to go down in May 2021.

Would make for an interesting next season.

Of course your Fulham will be disappointed, all the same.

This should go in the Conspiracy Theory thread. You're all just jealous coz you never had a statue of Wacko!!

How do you allocate CL and EL places for next season if teams haven't played the same number of games? In theory, Sheffield United would be 5th if they win their game in hand, which could result in a CL spot.

Pretty much the same problem being faced by all the major European leagues. Would seem like you can't possibly make any decisions until you know when games can be resumed.

Further to @dogmeat and his comment on Fulham, the mighty Notts County have just gone on a winning streak to reach 3rd in the National League - and the league was suspended today ...

Has a decision been made if there is no more play? Is it as it stands? What about relegation?

Could be as simple as points per game played?

@mariner4life Have they given the title to Liverpool yet??

Are you serious? Or just being pessimistic? Are they saying the season will be null and void?
