    Even behind closed doors, you would need ambulances and medical staff at the ground, in case of injuries.

    I dont see how you could have ambulances available for football fixtures during a pandemic?

    It will be interesting to see how all the players manage to keep themselves 2m away from each other too.

    Course its necessary! Big Bosses are losing money daily because of this Corona virus. Just imagine if they could only afford fillet steak and a bottle Bordeaux 6 days a week instead of 7.

    There are 762 million reasons why the Premier League will do their utmost to complete this season.

    To me it would be a shameful move, but you get the impression they can hardly wait for the starting gun.

    I remember doing P.E at school in minus temperatures, snow, sleet with wild polar bears roaming the school field ready to pick off any student who dared stray to far from the pack.

    So I hardly think a minor thing like disease and death will stop the EPL finishing their stupid little league of football.

    I think what people mean is in these circumstances they are not missing football. That is how I feel anyway.
    As you said, the pandemic has wrecked the sporting calendar.
    It's not just about showing respect after a worldwide disaster (or the impression of indecent haste to restart) but the fact that the season has had a lengthy stoppage. It feels like a previous season to me, IMO it would be far better to let it go and resume next season if possible.

    I don’t think Vestergaard will have much of a problem!

    I'm missing live sport, no doubt. But as the sun is now shining, I'm mostly missing cricket and flat racing.

    Should have been the Craven meeting at Newmarket this week, with clues and trials for the Guineas next month.

    **** football. Ask me again in August.

    Premier League players have been told to prepare to return to full training at the end of May.
