We're probably already gonna go a few months without football now. So, no exactly big deal if that were to happen. 2 minutes ago, NikkiCFC said: Do you want to play last 16 in CL in pre season? Bad idea if you ask me. NULL AND VOID! By that you mean the resumption of this season's UCL Round of 16? If the authorities follow AVB's idea, then that wouldn't be an issue. Haven't bothered to think much about it but the only reason I would want this season to be declared null and void is that it would likely benefit us in terms of Champions League qualification (and to see Liverpool NOT be crowned champions). Otherwise, I'm not sure what's the point. Not sure why everyone is so rigid about the European football schedule that 2019/20 must end by June or July or whenever so that 2020/21 can start on time in August, which may not even happen if this virus situation persists. On top of that, the 2022 World Cup will throw up a mess to the scheduling when it comes around and this whole coronavirus feels like a perfect opportunity to take and adjust the football seasons accordingly for that.

MoroccanBlue 5,408 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Expected to start again in July. Assuming the league then ends in September. Wonder how the transfer market plays out. Does it still open normally in July? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Premier League is reportedly set to restart in July with matches to be played behind closed doors unless the coronavirus situation in the UK worsens.

Fernando 6,743 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 It's dumb Just cancel the season and start the new season as normal.

Whether in July or in November. It will finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

July should be for pre season which the players are going to need after being quarantine. That is assuming things die down by July or August for football to resume but if it doesn't, then what? Say if it's only safe to play again in November, then how do you manage the schedule with Euro 2021 happening next summer? I'm kinda bemused by the fact that people are so rigid about following the football calendar schedule. Also, tribalism aside, I wonder if we were in Liverpool's position, would people be so casual about just saying "just declare the season null and void" OR if we weren't in the Champions League spots, would people be so dismissive like now? And that is without mentioning the financial repercussions for all the teams. Stats and Tomo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,754 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 The J League is scheduled to restart in early May, if that happens without a hitch then a clear prescedent is set. Plus it will nice to watch football again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are even still doubts about the league starting in China in late April/early May even though the situation has improved over there.
