EPL 19/20

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.
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 ...

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

Could be as simple as points per game played?
Possibly, but the teams won't have played the same teams so you were at the mercy of the schedule.
The latest optimistic report is saying the EPL could restart in early June.

The updates are quite thin, but I think they will look to get the league done. Europe competition is done and dusted, and it's quite easy to forgo other trophies, but the league is very important.
Reality is that most teams have 8 games left, at 2 a week (remember with zero other comps this is extremely doable) then it can be done in a month. Empty stadiums maybe which will be a bit odd (this is basically assured due to not only the transmission, but the drain on public emergency services as well), but you can be sure the tv viewing figures will be OFF THE SCALE.
.... won't stop me putting an * in tho ....
