Should the numbers of infected people greatly increase then by all accounts some emergency plans are already under consideration: large public gatherings could be banned (Switzerland has already done so) and this could include football matches (in Italy five Serie A games are going to be played behind closed doors this weekend), all schools closed for possibly up to two months and according to the Daily Mail/Telegraph Liverpool could lose out on the title if matches are cancelled. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8056083/Liverpool-NOT-assured-title-Government-orders-games-cancelled-coronavirus.html
Obviously these measures might affect Scotland as well. If that happens what should the football authorities do? Take the last league placings as the 'final' league positions and award all trophies accordingly? What about promotion/relegation - ignore for this year - or take them as per 'final' league positions? Declare all unfinished competitions null and void? Declare the whole season null and void?

obviously we would need to null and void the competition and just move on to next.
CL league place decided by whoever got further in Europe this season (seems fair)
you guys can go for 9 next season unless we are all living pods or dead by then

No, no,no.Yes, I cannot see a flaw in that plan

Whitton Park this afternoon Silver?

Didn't go up, mate. He was only getting 30 cos he's just back from injury and with the weather and all I couldn't be ersed. Wee cant hasn't even texted me the score. It's usually up on the match video portal right after the game but just checked there and it isn't yet. They may not have filmed it - not been at that ground to know if there is a good filming vantage point? They sometimes use these massive tripods but if its too windy the picture is rubbish.
