Exactly. The idea that the season should be null and void and just restart is just utter nonsense and without logic. Do people think the virus will just go away in 5 months time and that's it? Who's to say that next season isn't suspended because of another outbreak? Do we just cancel next season too? Voiding the season will just be a dangerous precedence set. The most sensible thing to do is complete the season when it's suitable to do so. It's much easier to abandon a season that hasn't already started 2020/2021 than the current. I guess there will be more clarity at the end of next week.
this is unprecedented, and so there are no contingency plans in place.
Yes the season needs to be void of the games cannot be completed in a timely manner.
Dont let being a selfish Liverpool fan cloud your judgement.
For subsequent seasons, there be an agreement over how to react if something similar happens in the future, and appropriate changes will be made, there will be clarity, and there will be fairness.
frankly clubs like Utd on the cusp of the CL this year, or clubs in and around the relegation zone, or those in the championship in the playoffs have far more to lose than Liverpool.
There has to be a finite date of when the season can finish by, and that’s when players contracts run out. If you carry on the season into July and August - do Utd carry on without Matic, Ighalo who are out of contract? Aggravate that to every club in Europe then you have a mammoth problem.
again, if you look outside of one club, you will see that clubs in league 1 and league 2 don’t sign players up on long term contracts, and many clubs will likely have 10 squad players out of contract on June 30th. It’s unrealistic to continue after that date, and if that’s the case, then the season needs to be null and void.
