The 2019-20 season in the Netherlands has been canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic, with leaders Ajax denied the league title and no relegation from the Eredivisie and no promotion from the second tier.
The Dutch government extended a ban on major public events by three months on Tuesday, leading to the cancellation of the league season. Ajax were top -- level on 56 points with AZ Alkmaar but ahead on goal difference -- while Feyenoord were six points further back with nine matches remaining.
I won’t be surprised if the English Premier League is also cancelled with everything forfeited so as not to disturb the peace. If the government ban all major public events for foreseeable future, I doubt that our league can go ahead despite some suggesting that it be played behind closed doors—— imagine one player gets infected by COVID-19 and the whole team get isolated for 14 days I cannot see how the league resumes this season I doubt even next season can go ahead with current lockdown emergency conditions.
Public health should always come first regardless of any disappointments caused by such cancellations. The current top four can go to CL but I doubt even Champions League can survive COVID-19 with traveling banned between countries.
Dutch season canceled so will English!!

The EPL should be following suit, it is not safe or fair to even consider resuming the season, it has been tarnished irretrievably now anyway, so whats the point in putting people at risk for the sake of a meaningless football season.

I'm a cockney that was forced to grow up in the Liverpool area in the 80's so I can say with hand on my heart that the people from there on the whole are wonderful people and like anywhere there are idiots but to condone suicide shows what an idiot small brained thing you are
