Coronavirus and Football (Plus all Sport in General)

I think I've massively lost interest in all this, it's just not going to happen for us.

I'd love to just switch off from all of this. Football detox for next season at least.

I was like this 24hrs ago & adamant i was going to take a sabbatical from football, but LFC is in the blood; irrelevant what happens now, next season we will all be 'WE GO AGAIN'

It will initially be a suspension probably 2 weeks initially from either before or after this weekends games. They will then have to review and extend the suspension as appropriate.

Assuming that the Euros are cancelled or moved to 2021 and they attempt to stick to the same type of schedule we have now, two weeks sees the season end at the end of May which would be fine, if the suspension is 6 weeks that becomes the end of June with the new season only 7 or so weeks away, they won't want to push next season back especially if there are newly positioned Euros. So that leaves very little room for adjustment.

I am not sure who makes the decision to void the league, but if a suspension is getting close to 6 weeks I imagine there will be significant support for it. If you look at the PL clubs who would be against voiding the league, the only sides who would benefit from the league continuing (i.e. would be better off where they are now than if this season were restarted) are us, Leicester, Sheffield Utd, Wolves and maybe Man Utd, everyone else has no reason to oppose it.

By the time next season comes around, I probably will be too. But right now, just fed up with it.

If they cancel and declare no result I'm well and truly done.

I was saying to my dad the other week, I was starting to think we were cursed, no matter how well we play something always seems to stop us winning. But finally, we're in a position where we won't be stopped, the curse is broken.

A month later......

Love Klopp, love the players, love the owners and the rest of the team, but man, nah. It's just too devastating. It makes me feel silly for being so invested in a game as an adult, but it is what it is.

You can just see my son in that not holding his hand out I may add (only because he is so high up) on the left just up from the yellow jacket and grey hood right at the end.

I can see the resemblance

Announcements to be made today on postponements. It was inevitable.

Postponement is now our best possible scenario. The other one doesn't bear thinking about

IPL postponed for a month. Everyone is postponing - not cancelling.

I agree, but can't help think cancellation will follow.

I get it. But that isnt the current advice. The current advice is to self isolate for 7 days. Not everyone around you. Unless its their team Doc saying it obviously.

Hopefully the priority is getting this season done even if it dragged in to later in the year, if next season has to be shorter then can always do some sort of premier league cup or clausura type thing for the few months, the Argies **** around with their league format all the time now! Even forgetting our situation it just seems much easier to get that done then you at least have answers on who finishes where.

Not sure how this suspend works mind when it's said May etc will be peak time?
