Just saw BBC's vote on what should be done regarding the premier league season - 32% calling for null and void. Judging by the comments many of those are ManU fans who are desperate to see Liverpool thwarted. Also, many relegation threatened clubs want the season voided too. But skipping a whole season makes no sense because of the knock on effects for next season. They either have to call the season as per current placement, find a way to distribute the remaining points, or figure out how to play 9 more games each. We are 2 games away from the title - so a lot of the null and void calls are just spite.

They just need to wait to finish the season and wait as long as it takes. That might be May (very much doubt it) or it might be January. There’s absolutely no point voiding and wasting a season that is nearly over when we don’t even know whether we can start next season. It could lead to two whole seasons being ruined.

Rival fans will always want to try and thwart us, but I can see allot people wanting to just forget about this year, lots of people will lose loved ones, I can see why they would just want a line drawn under it all and start again afresh later in the year, allot of interest will have dropped out of the league after 6 months of no football, there will not be much desire to start the season again apart from Liverpool fans.

It's not fair to void a season that's nearly over.
It's not fair to finish it early.
I just think a lot of calls for voiding it are coming from people who want the easiest way out and have no inclination to problem solve or go against the status quo of a routine.
I imagine a lot of these people are not real sports fans, I wouldn't be trying to take a title from United in this way, If you are a true sports fan you have to accept the team that wins the title is the better team.
Don't teams usually have 5 - 7 pre season friendlies before a season starts anyway.

However, if games cannot play behind closed doors, cant see this season finishing unless there are no public gatherings until the new year. Then there wont be enough time to start a new season and they will have to continue the current one in the new year. The only way clubs could survive then would be significant players' pay cut

Whenever Football is ready to kickstart back up there really isn't any advantage starting afresh. There is more disadvantage because there is unfinished business and no doubt plenty of lawsuits.

I understand but let say the games can start again in September, if this season is to finish including the CL, it will be end of the year, then there wont be enough time for a full new season with the Euro starting in June. They will be forced to start a new season in September. Dont think they will just void the current one though. However if games are to start in the new year, then they will just finish the current season. But that would be a fukk season without revenues.
