Finish the season in July and August 11:24 - Apr 1 with 1643 views | builthjack | Finish the season in July and August, if possible. Then have a 3 week break. Start the new season at the end of September. Each division play each other once to start , so Premier teams play 19 games. The other 3 divisions play 23 games. Then split the top half and bottom half. In the Premier the top half for example then play another 9 games, as do the bottom half. 28 games total. Championship and below would play another 11 games, so 34 in total. Teams in Europe do not enter the FA cup if they chose not to. Do similar across Europe, and leagues next season could finish end of April at the latest. Euros in June. Bobs your uncle. They can still show as many TV games as normal so nobody loses out.

| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Except that Sky and BT want their money back if this season is null and void because they haven’t had the product that they paid for. All clubs would have to give money back which would bankrupt many (including ours). They’re going to do everything in their power to finish the season and then they can talk about any changes to the following season before it starts so that everyone knows where they stand. | |

Give it back and clubs like ours go to the wall? That may be ok for you but it isn't for me. There's a quarter of the season to go. Sky and BT want much more than a quarter back because the final quarter is when all the issues around promotion, relegation and title winners are settled. Then there's the play offs. Audience figures increase massively at the end of the season and the broadcasters would want most of their money back. | |

But a quart won't fit into a pint pot, whichever way you look at it. If they can't play, they can't play. There's no point rolling over this season (a handful of games) at the expense of losing half the games/income from next season. The financial impact would be greater, so that makes no sense at all. I think the leagues approaches is probably the best for now - try to play if at all possible, even if behind closed doors. But there needs to be a cutoff point at which they stop and draw a line under this season, by end July at the latest I'd have thought. They could have a 2 week break and then start afresh in mid-August. Unless they can do some wizardry around playing games during international breaks next season or streamline the cups. | | | |
Finish the season in July and August on 15:39 - Apr 1 with 1363 views | JackFish | Personally think it's much better to finish this season's matches when they can be played and then have a shorter 2020/21 than just scrapping what's left of this season. | | | |

Is the correct answer | |

Finish the season in July and August on 17:14 - Apr 1 with 1266 views | JackSomething | Those saying the season should be declared null and void would be the first to complain that approach is unfair if we were top of the league. Find a way to finish this season and compress next season to compensate. The major difficulty with that will be with the players. As someone else said, how would it work with their wages. We won't want to pay Ayew's wages for however many months more would be needed for example. You would expect that the PL, FA and whoever else are in discussions with the PFA about possible plans, but expecting the players en masse to give up a few quid is probably a pipe dream. | |
