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

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.
