Does this mean we'll never see Drinky in a Villa shirt again?  I'm not sure I'm ready to accept that.

The bottom six or so clubs are going to demand the league be voided at tomorrow's emergency meeting over integrity concerns.

Presume we can count on all of Manchester and at least one half of the Liverpool's support.

The fairest thing would be to award every club 3 points for all their remaining games.

Mendy from Man City self isolating as well. It’s probs hard to avoid getting this, but standing with my kids and 40,000 others seems a bit irresponsible. I’ll give it a miss, especially as only reason it will still go ahead is greed on behalf premier league and Tory Govt wheighing up economic cost vrs old people dying

It's the 20 or so people sat around you and anybody who coughs or sneezes all over you en route to your seat. If you're sat in the upper Holte, you haven't got much to worry about from the majority of the ground or even the block over.

I disagree. That would mean there are too many points so they should just call every match a home win.

Arteta news is surely a game changer, even the broadcasters puppets at the Premier League have to suspend the games now.

Suspect we will see how effective a CEO Purslow is now as we need to be right in the mix of the discussions of what happens from here, particularly if it comes to a point where season becomes voided or where a decision needs to be made regarding resuming fixtures.

I think it would be negligent to continue sporting events right now. And gross negligence to allow them to continue with spectators.

Can absolutely see games being played behind closed doors for the rest of the season.  Surely can be handled within clubs, with players being regularly monitored by club doctors etc.

I'm not sure I'd be looking forward to a shift as part of the catering crews for Saturday.

I don't think the players and their families will be supportive of this at all.
