    In France the government banned all sport until September so their league has declared PSG champions.

    Will the PL have the guts to make a decision or hope it’s taken out of their hands so can pass the blame ?

    Given the amounts of money involved with the Premiership and the Govts record of indecision/ lack of transparency, It could well be a case of the Chuckle Brothers decision, to me, to yo

    I think that ultimately it will be a government influenced decision based on the medical advice presented. Football will keep pursuing this ridiculous behind-closed-doors idea until they are told to visit the real world.

    True. They're still exploring the possibility of having everyone turn up at St.George's Park to finish the season and testing all the players on mass once there.

    The decision on the Bundesliga restart has been pushed back to next week, meaning the earliest it may now start is May 16th.....no word from their government as far as I know.....I think we will follow what they do but a few weeks later.

    It all looks farcical is there is any truth in this on the BBC site
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52493894

    Players in masks Medics in full PPE, players turn up in their kit and no showers or food
    sounds a really stupid plan - almost one Baldrick would come up with.

    Would imagine they are working on premise if Government force it like in other countries its easier for there negotiations with TV companies but if they do it leaves them open to more recriminations.
