Will I have the option of buying these tests?4 -

There's talk the premiership could return in weeks.
In the meantime we've still got nearly two weeks left of the lockdown and we don't know there will be an extension to the lockdown.
We don't know when we will be able to see family and friends, return to work or get back to some sort of reality but football might return in a month.
If football returns it will then be a free for all.1 -
No surprise Pompey want to continue, not in top two but have a real chance of promotion still.ross1 said:0 -
Most of our players usually distance themselves 3 metres away from the the nearest opposition player so we will be fine. The only one who would have a problem is Pearce..... just doesn’t play him - this will increase our chances of winning as well.clb74 said:

Personally I'd end it now, with the obvious hurt to certain clubs, then start again in September if possible.1

So 9 games in 4.5 weeks. Bowyer says there has to be at least 4 weeks pre start for players to get match fit. We are 2 weeks away from the government reviewing an extension, which is quite probable to be extended again. I can’t see the government giving the go ahead for any relaxation of the social distancing rules any further than small groups of no more than 5-10 people this side of Christmas.Unless the new season starts very late I think it is very unlikely that this season will be completed.And to be honest other than the money side of the argument I can’t see the point of a restart.The season has be so badly disrupted it’s nonsense to have the season in the record books.5

Shame about big nose fish face ruining the view. At least he managed to avoid relegation for once0 -
Within the non league game I’ve heard from various people that no crowds will be allowed to attend until January 2021. Non-starter for the Non league to start again in August.It does very much sound like we have all seen our last live football match for the calendar year.0

Could use that for restarting the season though... If one more country follows Germany in restarting then you'll probably just get the rest demanding the right to continue playstop_shouting said:
I went on a management course a couple of years back and they did some video about people following each other dancing and who was the most influential in the chain of events. It wasn’t the person who started dancing, it was the person who followed him. As soon as the second country declares their season null and void, the rest will follow.JamesSeed said:
Pretty sure this season will be written off. There’s precedent already (Dutch football) and a perfectly good excuse (covid). Making a bodge of finishing this season at the end of the year could easily screw up next season as well. It’d be much easier for the administrators to start planning for next season ASAP, with worrying about somehow squeezing in this season first.LargeAddick said:
So let’s say December then. Just finish this season and play the two cup competitions. Job done.Rob7Lee said:
I think it'll be much longer than that. The very last things to be 'back to normal' will be where there are large crowds in close proximity. Football and other sports, gigs etc, it won't be this year sadly.MStuartPerm said:I want to go to the Valley have a beer and watch us again, but at the moment I can’t see that happening this side of October/November.And if it means we don’t get relegated, so be it :-)0 -

Managers and subs sitting in dig outs close together when the rest of the nation are self distancing. People will say well klopp does it and disregard the rules.
i hope some clubs have the balls to refuse to play although they are probably scared of the threat of efl action
Top two up from each league, no relegation with 4 down for two seasons to even out. Job done1 -
The amount of people dying everyday is still appalling,how can anyone even consider playing football at any level until there is downward trend on this awful situation.19

They will win the league. And we won’t fluke our way out of relegation.clb74 said:

They will finish the season - behind closed doors. As they should. But when it’s safe to do so.
if that means next season is altered so be it

My thoughts 100% , even if Charlton was top 2 now, I can honestly say stuff football and protect the NHS and carers etc.Rudders22 said:Over 20,000 peoppe have died. 700 still dying on average every day.

See there's still no resolution for the 30th June contract expiry. Especially on the EFL it'll be chaos0

There is a school of thought about life going on. We cant not just re-start people going back to work (be it a scaffolder or a footballer) just because people have died. Not saying its right, but the masses need something to focus on & to get back to normality. I hear today that the lockdown has started to crumble & there are more people out & about today. It won't take long for things to start getting rough if people are "locked up" for much longer.
I hear that the WHO are saying that it is very likely that anyone who has had Covid-19 might not be immune & could catch it again. If that is the case then things might as well start getting back to normal.2 -
30th June are when contracts expire - no current solution to this and nothing legally binding even if so
EFL say the season can be completed within 56 days. This means 30th June minus 56 means the league must restart no later than 5th May.
Then Lee Bowyer says the players need 4 weeks to prepare for a restart. So take 28 days away from 5th May and we're at 7th April which is 18 days ago.
Even if all teams go straight in with no preparation that's still 5th May the latest it can start for a 30th June finish. This is 10 days away...roughly in line with the next lockdown update from the government.
So my guess is if the lockdown is extended which looks likely you can pretty much kiss goodbye any hope of the season ending by 30th June.

The word very was not used. The words ‘may be possible’ we’re used. Big difference. Are you saying that on that basis, we should all go out and catch it?golfaddick said:There is a school of thought about life going on.

Less likely that if you've had it now, you'll get it again before a vaccine is ready.0 -
