Just start the next season with all the points from this one...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah I suppose this is the other option if need be. Start again from August - November if possible. Start the new season in, say early December (minus the league cup). Euros in late 2021. Also helps prepare for the winter world cup in 2022.

Dont think anyone would have an issue with that.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
but what about promotions from other leagues

Teams have invested and banked on going up

This is why forgetting the PL for a min the season should be finished.

Also who is to say we won't have a corona repeat next year. Some folk will want the league voided every time there is an outbreak depending of course the position of their team

That is why you should just put the season on hold and carry on when it's safe to play

----------------------------------------------------------------------
What? That's pretty much what I said!

apart from carrying over the existing points

Finish the season but make sure there is an asterisk next to Liverpool's title win among other things.

The season should just be annulled. No prizes given out. It would set an awful precedent if titles were awarded, if they had not been won. You cannot just relegate teams if they have only played two-thirds their games.

Season should just end now. And next season starts as soon as possible.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
what like in April

All clubs agree that it becomes a 66/67 game season by combining this season with a new one, we start at 0 points, and then each club at the end is deducted the gap in points compared to the 1st place (Liverpool) as it stands right now.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Don’t see how that’s fair.

Say Liverpool for example get a long term injury to VVD and results suffer. It’s unlikely but not impossible they could be caught

I really think we could be looking at no football for a lengthy period of time so might even be possible that they just complete this season this time next year, assuming things return to normality

Really it should be awarded to Liverpool as they clearly were gonna win it

However this creates a precedent as on this basis you have to reach a decision over European places, relegation and promotion etc

I really think the season should be resumed whenever it becomes possible. This could eat into the time required for the next full season of course so it’s very difficult to reach a satisfactory solution.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is what I think will happen, however when this will happen I have no clue

I'm hoping July/August, 10 games over 40 days

Give the players a few months off now and then resume when hopefully this dies down.

Just think Beer, Footy, and the sun
----------------------------------------------------------------------

There is not a hope if hell of football being played in July, and even it was, footballers can barely play one game a week, let alone 10 games in 40 days. Laughable.

Oh, nah. Maybe I misunderstood the guy I replied to.
I don't mean carry the points over to next season - basically just restart this season whenever we can. If it fecks up next season's football calendar so be it.

There's EPL clubs that owe practically all their annual turnover to TV and broadcast money. Money they get from the FA once a season is wrapped up.

I wouldn't be surprised to see an overwhelming majority of club execs willing to forego a percentage of this season's payments and voting to end the season early.

I don't think there is ever going to be a scenario where things are fair. I mean we could carry on the season but you'll have things like contracts to contend with, and how are we supposed to continue with it if it ends up being too long a break which is looking likely?

Spurs have a good chance for top 4/5

I think It will be a real good run in for the european places and the relegation battle

Like I said it would be great to do this late summer in 4/5 months time

We were in shocking form when the stopping of fixtures came in but also out injury situation had been ridiculous. We can usually cope without one of kane or Son but not both. Also Sissoko bring out has affected us especially as NDombele can’t get fit.

From purely a selfish POV the break gives our players time to recover from injury.

It’s all irrelevant in the grand scheme of things though

There would be an asterisk next to this season with Liverpool winning it, and with good reason.

Never mind being the most legitimate title win ever with VAR scrutiny, the fact that the team overcame a global pandemic to triumph would make it the greatest title win ever.

Asterisk, bring it on, never in recent history would a team have had to overcome such difficulties to win the league.

Greatest title win ever.

Yes, and for Spurs it would be the greatest 8th placed finish ever.

Look forward to your article on it.

Palmers, you were badmouthing me on the Liverpool board, so you can have a few weeks rest. Not nice to call other posters idiots.
