Football Doesn't Belong In An Empty House... It Should Only Kick Off Again When It's Safe For All To Return

Thankfully, there were no dates given, no timescales.

On Friday, just as a further 684 deaths from coronavirus had been announced, there could not be any talk of a schedule.

Football will only return “when it is safe to do so”.

The Premier League pitched their latest bulletin perfectly.

An announcement of £20million support for the NHS, a £125m advance for EFL and non-League clubs and a reiteration of their intention to complete the season.

For what it is worth, I am actually a null-and-voider.

The season has been ended by this terrible pandemic and to finish it will only be an exercise in box-ticking and in fulfilling contractual requirements.
