Why would you think that...?I desperately hope I'm wrong, but I think we need to prepare for the idea that we're not going to see any football for over a year, probably longer.
It's difficult to see how many Clubs will be able to continue to pay wages.

I'm sure of one thing and that is that no one knows for sure...There are many models and some see it being impacted by the Summer heat in Europe and dying back to perhaps re emerge next Winter. The reality is that IF this is not resolved by October and carries on into next year, then the social damage will be far beyond any specific concerns for the football industry...Because the modelling suggests that the current situation could last that long.
Indeed. Hopefully we'll see some kind of normality in the summer, but even if that transpires it's easy to argue that social distancing will continue for a long time.I'm sure of one thing and that is that no one knows for sure...There are many models and some see it being impacted by the Summer heat in Europe and dying back to perhaps re emerge next Winter.

Yes , the Premiership has got too big for its boots literally. A hard way to find out a few home truths though. Sad for the little clubs too with no tv income buffer and just gates to rely on.It sounds wrong but maybe this will be a valuable lesson to all sports. Football players are over paid by millions, clubs risk things like this by having a 2 million pound wage bill per week. Maybe if a few of the bigger clubs struggle they'll bring in a wage cap.
Which modelling is that?Because the modelling suggests that the current situation could last that long.
