Out of interest, where are people reading this suspension news?

I see a Dan Roan tweet. Anything else?

BBC News

Got it, cheers. If you click on the tweet it links to, it's a two-parter...

Privately, officials admit very little chance of football resuming as early as Apr 4th so further extension then seems almost certain, unless season is abandoned, but review looks set to happen then if Prem League agree with EFL

here is a silver lining.

Liverpool s first game after 4th April is against Man City - the proverbial 6 pointer.
If they win that they win the league.

Their next game is Villa at home.

There's not a bat in Wuhan's chance that football will resume on April 4th.

It is going to be along few weeks with no football to look forward to.

Hopefully the season will be resumed at some point.

Time then to get a new Manager/Head Coach settled in place?

Also time to get McGinn ready and may be even Jed Steer will be back.

I think this is just a holding decision before a total abandonment.

A cancellation of the Euros will be important.Without a cancellation,I can see it being a struggle to complete the fixtures with at least Chelsea,Arsenal.,Everton and probably Leicester and Watford being virus hit.
A cancellation would give leagues a chance to  extend a postponement past April which looks a bit optimistic .
I would give Liverpool the title,promote the top 4 from the Championship,no relegation from the Prem .Next season sees a 46 game PL which restarts in July with the PL clubs having to pay £6--7m to help out the lower leagues.
Everyone happy.
