Yup, they say not yet, but within 10 days there may well be.

We may not ban large gatherings based on our current situation.
I'm guessing everything has been suspended now given the whole country is in lock down
The French Ligue One has been suspended I believe.
Okay. Stand corrected.Just to confirm, all the sporting events in Italy have been suspended. The French league is to be played behind closed doors or in front of 1,000 spectators. Is the latest I’ve read on my commute.
Aren't they closed doors or below 1000 people at the moment. They were yesterday anyway.The French Ligue One has been suspended I believe.
Well, yup, that would kind of make sense in one respect, but it wouldn't quite work if they did stop the season now for instance.End the season now and we go up as champions

I suppose they can have several seats of space between each supporter. That would look totally weird though.I don’t understand allowing just a 1,000. Surely it’s either everyone can attend or no one can?
Yup. Seems certain some players will be hit, once they are, the whole thing could come crashing down.
When referring to 1000 spectators I would assume that would be for back room staff, reporters, non playing team members, security, medics and possibly agents. No fans will be presentI suppose they can have several seats of space between each supporter. That would look totally weird though.

Yup. Suspend it for a month and we still might have players and clubs catching it after the month is up. Then what?Watch our whole team catch it but we still have to play games with Kastaneer up top on his own and Jobello on crutches. Meanwhile every other team has players coming back from injury and we get hammered every game and end up in 8th.

How do you choose which 1,000 supporters?
And surely there is the temptation that if you are the City and let's say Mason, Wakefield and Mason have it right now, for us to report them as carrying knocks so the game can go ahead on Saturday?Exactly. Then how many players have to have it before a game is off?
What if a main player has an injury and they want to wait until he is fit so blag coronavirus to get it called off? Something Bolton would do.
Season ticket holders on first come, first serve basis, I presume. Or by date of original purchase. They would find a way to alienate a section of us!

How do we know how truthful clubs are going to be?
I've heard they are going to start first with Korean car owners who live in Keresley first and then filter it down from there.You can't go as you don't live in Coventry. Not my rules, Coventrian said so
Good news is that cases in China are falling! Seems that they are starting to get it under control
Probably had a mass cull and little Li is wondering why his granddad never came home from the supermarket, after just popping out for a pint of milkGood news is that cases in China are falling! Seems that they are starting to get it under control
The logical option for loss of gate receipts would be the Premier League clubs filtering down whatever TV money they would have had
Yay for communism!
I think that would serve very little practical purpose at all, but would make the government look like it's doing something.Will never happen - I can’t see games being played behind closed doors I think a 2 week suspension is the only thing they might do but even then it’s fairly pointless
No chance we are almost 3/4 of the way through. Knock on head but keep the tables as they are. No play off games so top 3 promotedPlaying behind closed doors won't stop the virus spreading. Players have proven this weekend that they will still shake hands with officials and other players at the end of the game, spit all over the pitch and sweat. Transmission is still possible. And the effects on the smaller clubs without income would be tragic. So where do the EFL stand ? If the EFL puts the season on hold, this could cause no end of problems when they restart. If the hold is for a month of two, would teams have enough time to finish this season without running into preseason and affecting next ? I can't see them ending the season early so the only other option would be to knock this one on the head, avoid any problems with fans and players getting ill and start again next season.
After all the efforts of MR and the lads, a season cancellation would be heartbreaking.
