I don’t think it will until next year personally.At this point, we should be discussing if we are even ready for next seasons start.
Yep. While I think there's no chance this season will continue indefinitely, season tickets are one hell of an issue.Some lower league clubs could be in trouble in the next couple of weeks - no season ticket sales for next season.
World economy already taken the hit. Even if you try to have everything plan out (impossible with no vaccine in sight), have next season ticket sales for next season, your revenue wouldn’t be the same. People’s jobs are unstable. Very few would want to pay an huge amount of money up front for season ticket.Some lower league clubs could be in trouble in the next couple of weeks - no season ticket sales for next season.
2. Shit happens. Sorry scouse but I've no sympathy. It will be them smelly bindippers not washing their hands that's caused this.There are only two solutions.
1. Finish the season, even if that means playing it in July and August.
2. Cancel season and declare it void.
I get that they may want to but that counts for nothing if it gets to a point where it's not possible and unfortunately what's going on in the world suggests it simply won't be.agree logistics are a nightmare but I think they value integrity of the leagues above some extra logistical tasks. I’m encouraged by what I heard tonight on sky. Sounds like a lot of clubs want to finish it.
It would need to be refunded. They’re waiting on final decisions from sports associations. And these associations take one step at a time following government announcement. They don’t want to stir a social unrest.Yep. While I think there's no chance this season will continue indefinitely, season tickets are one hell of an issue.
Clubs like to get those in around May, but who on earth is going to buy one if there's no guarantee a season will start anytime near August, will have the usual set of games, or won't be affected by a return of this virus menace again.
I wonder what clubs will do about the unused games if it's all voided too?
I hold season tickets at 2 clubs, with 2 at United. I'd probably let the smaller one keep it, but i'd not be happy losing £320 for the United ones!
what an appalling post. There’s no one laughing about anyone dying. The situation with Liverpool not winning the league though, is unbelievably hilariousGTF with your double-standards & hypocrisy. I've never seen so many laughter emoticons used in threads relating to people dying. Most coming from your fans I have to say.
who cares. Football doesn’t matter. Couldn’t care less about the CL next year. Far more important is the health of the nation, not finding any excuse to finish off a league season just so Liverpool can win the league. Do yiuYes but you’ll have 0% chance if it’s voided. Surely some chance is better? If I’m not mistaken you haven’t went two consecutive seasons without CL since the start of the PL.
bollocks. You and every Liverpool fan have a massive agenda, and it’s understandable. But when you look at it rationally (oh the irony), then if we can’t finish the season by 30 June, it’s far more logical to abandon this season and start the new season when we can at some point later in 2020.Of course I understand teams want to protect their own interests. But it’s about integrity and fairness. Every team signs up to a full season of home and away against all teams.
It genuinely wasI did. I was kidding haha. It was gripping viewing
I accept that there are major hurdles to overcome to finish the season. There is no doubt about that. But do you accept that IF those hurdles can be overcome finishing the season is the best solution from a fairness and integrity perspective?I get that they may want to but that counts for nothing if it gets to a point where it's not possible and unfortunately what's going on in the world suggests it simply won't be.
With all the will in the world a point will come when it's simply not viable. You can surely understand that?
The bans will come, for now it's all "advice" not to gather, while they work on pulling through the legislation to ban it properly!The government have basically cancelled all sport for the foreseeable today. No mass gatherings = no sport.
I'm not sure how people think we are just going to suddenly shoehorn the rest of the season in.
I think the development from the Valencia team proves that there is no way this will be played behind closed doors. There doesn't seem to be a safe way to do it.The bans will come, for now it's all "advice" not to gather, while they work on pulling through the legislation to ban it properly!
I suppose some Pool fans are clinging to the hop that they can play football out behind close doors. But as some of the players are saying, what sort of football is that. It can work for a game or two, but it's moved on from that being an option the second players started getting ill.
Club allegiance aside, the long and short of it, is of COURSE it's best to finish a season off.I accept that there are major hurdles to overcome to finish the season. There is no doubt about that. But do you accept that IF those hurdles can be overcome finishing the season is the best solution from a fairness and integrity perspective?
If it’s voided teams at top and in European places will be at the very least unhappy but some will undoubtedly launch legal action.
If it’s frozen and today’s placings are final then legal action will come from relegation teams as well as some at the top. (Hearts have already confirmed they will do this.)
National state of emergency. The sports Associations follow the governments’ advices. Good luck with those legal cases and reason.I accept that there are major hurdles to overcome to finish the season. There is no doubt about that. But do you accept that IF those hurdles can be overcome finishing the season is the best solution from a fairness and integrity perspective?

I don’t think there are too many. Just a few which refused to see senses.Couldn’t give a shit about a bloody game at the moment. Too many people now caught up in whether Liverpool should be handed the title when there are thousands of imminent deaths across the world, fecking pathetic really. I’m more worried about how the majority of us are going to afford our bills rather than the rich and famous not getting handed luxuries.
But will they agree to cancel all of next season's revenue just to earn a third of this season's?I can see them finishing the season at some point for the simple fact that the broadcasters have a 38 game TV deal with the PL...they are going to lose a load of money through lost advertising revenue and cancelled subscriptions and will no doubt be after that money back from the Premier League if a quarter of the season is written off. Regardless of what the supporters want I think that will clinch it as they are so reliant on each other.
Next season's will be renegotiated if there are changes to the format, no? If next season is going to be totally cancelled then this season ain't finishing either.But will they agree to cancel all of next season's revenue just to earn a third of this season's?
Not sure that makes sense.
Costs will just have to be eaten like you know, the rest of the world.I can see them finishing the season at some point for the simple fact that the broadcasters have a 38 game TV deal with the PL...they are going to lose a load of money through lost advertising revenue and cancelled subscriptions and will no doubt be after that money back from the Premier League if a quarter of the season is written off.

As if people wouldn’t just unsubscribe because world economy recession, and football would be a lower priority.I can see them finishing the season at some point for the simple fact that the broadcasters have a 38 game TV deal with the PL...they are going to lose a load of money through lost advertising revenue and cancelled subscriptions and will no doubt be after that money back from the Premier League if a quarter of the season is written off. Regardless of what the supporters want I think that will clinch it as they are so reliant on each other.
I think the only way for this season to continue is if they cancel next season. And thinking about it, I don't think they will cancel next season because it just doesn't make money sense. So that means this season will have to finish before August really, and I think that is very difficult to achieve in the current state of things.Next season's will be renegotiated if there are changes to the format, no? If next season is going to be totally cancelled then this season ain't finishing either.
I'm not getting how 'subsequent seasons should not be affected' yet you've stated there are various reasons why they will be affected by matters outwith anybody's control. Surely therefore you agree that it is sensible to plan for a shortened season next year?Sorry but I don’t agree.
This issue is an ‘act of god’ - something that affects the here and now. Something that could not be accounted for beforehand, its purely bad luck for the teams that feel aggrieved.
Regardless of what teams would effectively be forced to agree to for next season, subsequent seasons should not be effected or we are just prolonging the impact.
For a start nobody knows how long this pandemic will continue and how soon it will fade to an acceptable level to resume playing.
What if the virus starts to lessen and you have a large proportion of players who still don’t feel comfortable playing again until the virus is totally disappeared? That is likely to be months and months away.
You can’t expect players to risk playing until they are totally in the clear, never mind factoring in players who play for teams that would benefit from not playing again this season (which is a can of worms in itself.)
https://www.surescreen.com/You just tried to debunk my post with a shitty Daily Mail article. Good one.
Of course I accept in an ideal world the season would get finished (United stand a chance of two trophies and CL qualification) but I don't accept it needs to be finished at all costs.I accept that there are major hurdles to overcome to finish the season. There is no doubt about that. But do you accept that IF those hurdles can be overcome finishing the season is the best solution from a fairness and integrity perspective?

We're already at the quarters of the FA Cup. It's not exactly a big chunk of time gained by cancelling it. A week or two at most.I would say its a given that the cups are cancelled.
Just play out the league for two months and give the players a months off in the summer. They have a long rest now as well so a month should be fine.
Euro's won't go ahead.
I told you there will be self testing kits alredgy
It’s a ridiculous notion to cherry pick which competitions you proceed with - again the Liverpool bias. THE LEAGUE MIST BE COMPLETED AT ALL COSTS!We're already at the quarters of the FA Cup. It's not exactly a big chunk of time gained by cancelling it. A week or two at most.
Yea suppose the FA cup would be grand. Anyone's with international travel should be banned.We're already at the quarters of the FA Cup. It's not exactly a big chunk of time gained by cancelling it. A week or two at most.
If there is an all clear in Europe to restart competitions, I'd like to see someone convincing UEFA to cancel their cash cow...Yea suppose the FA cup would be grand. Anyone's with international travel should be banned.
Sorry but that’s not what I said.I'm not getting how 'subsequent seasons should not be affected' yet you've stated there are various reasons why they will be affected by matters outwith anybody's control. Surely therefore you agree that it is sensible to plan for a shortened season next year?
