WheatfieldWarrior Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Entire football season 'could be declared "null and void" if the Government orders sports events to be cancelled to combat the rapid spread of coronavirus' The article is written from an EPL perspective, but imagine the seethe if this happened here. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8056083/Liverpool-NOT-assured-title-Government-orders-games-cancelled-coronavirus.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tasavallan Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 If the virus is spread my contact with carriers then all spectator sports will be affected. Currently Italy is badly affected but the virus will spread. China is one big mother... Containment rather than cure currently. Hardly at the embers stage of the fire, yet.
