The country is facing its biggest crisis since probably WWII ffs. Things are about to get a whole lot worse, any normal person with real problems wouldn’t give a £#%&! about the season being finished.

It's a distraction.

Most people don't want to wallow in the constant news of impending doom and misery.

Don't really see what the issue is. Winning it next season should be no problem for the best team ever.

Watch a film, read a book, do some DIY

Constantly having people tell us that the football season HAS to be completed when the country is on the verge of a ginormous health crisis is a piss take.

Different kind of distraction, think busy work.. they like to continue pretending it's an important discussion.

I really don't understand how it can be greedy an arrogant to scrap it. surely it's greedy and arrogant to ask for the season to be completed.

Aldridge... gone downhill since he left Newport County....

All that class and dignity they’re always going on about, a killer global pandemic comes along and it’s ‘but what about US’. Nobody cares, you self-obsessed #@&%!s

I love football but seriously who gives a £#%&! right now weird @#%&!s

The FA, Premier League, EFL and women’s professional game, together with the PFA and LMA, understand we are in unprecedented times and our thoughts are with everyone affected by COVID-19.

We are united in our commitment to finding ways of resuming the 2019/20 football season and ensuring all domestic and European club league and cup matches are played as soon as it is safe and possible to do so.

We have collectively supported UEFA in postponing EURO 2020 to create space in the calendar to ensure domestic and European club league and cup matches have an increased opportunity to be played and, in doing so, maintain the integrity of each competition.

The FA’s Rules and Regulations state that "the season shall terminate not later than the 1 June" and "each competition shall, within the limit laid down by The FA, determine the length of its own playing season".

However, The FA’s Board has agreed for this limit to be extended indefinitely for the 2019/20 season in relation to Professional Football.

Additionally, we have collectively agreed that the professional game in England will be further postponed until no earlier than 30 April.

The progress of COVID-19 remains unclear and we can reassure everyone the health and welfare of players, staff and supporters are our priority. We will continue to follow Government advice and work collaboratively to keep the situation under review and explore all options available to find ways of resuming the season when the conditions allow.

We would all like to re-emphasise that our thoughts are with everyone affected by COVID-19.

£#%&! football.

Greedy, selfish, @#%&!s.

It will be at least three months since a last ball was kicked, players won't be fit - it's bizarre.

All so everyone can fawn over Liverpool....

Imagine if the season resumed, Liverpool were hard hit by the virus and none of their players are healthy enough to play, so they put out the U19 or summat for the remainder of the season... and they lose every match...

They will do anything, anything to ensure the murderers get to lift the title. If not it'll be 80 years of legal challenges, campaigns, marches, phlegming, skips and poetry from merseyside.

It’s the other way around. He’s projecting. As usual, accuse others of what you yourself are guilty of.

And they’ll come off the worst.

Is that a poem

All football under Conference North/South cancelled and the season records expunged.
