Oh well, can't see any football being played before the summer is out.
Have a good summer everyone and let's hope for a promotion push next season.

Another issue is that with no training, match fitness would also drop, for all players.

The FA, Premier League, EFL and Barclays FA Women’s Super League and FA Women’s Championship have collectively agreed to postpone the professional game until 3 April at the earliest.
This action, which will be kept under constant review, has been taken due to the increasing numbers of Clubs taking steps to isolate their players and staff because of the COVID-19 virus.

The postponements include all matches in the Championship, League One and League Two, as well as all Academy and youth team fixtures.

In addition, Clubs are being advised to suspend indefinitely all non-essential activities which include, but are not limited to, player appearances, training ground visits and fan meetings.

Whilst the EFL Board has continued to take the advice and guidance offered by the Government and its health advisors, emerging developments mean now is the time to implement football’s contingency plans in response to the crisis.

A further update on these plans will be given post an EFL Board Meeting next week.

This decision has not been taken lightly, but the EFL must prioritise the health and well-being of players, staff and supporters while also acknowledging the Government’s national efforts in tackling this outbreak.

I think it was mentioned that Tomlin would possibly be fit again by April so this might work in our favour having out best player back. Trouble is the situation should actually be worse by April and the next few months after that so you could see further postponements after April.

If, as expected, the Euros get delayed for a year, then the regular season could go on until the middle of July, when the Euros are scheduled to finish

Feel sorry for genuine supporters of these clubs, but not for 'plastic' Liverpool fans who have taken over certain pubs in Cardiff when the Scousers have been playing this season. They have rarely, if ever spent money to see Liverpool live and simply there to latch onto their recent glory.
