    These suspended games

    We have two home and one away
    Can see night games happening but think we might have to extend a few days in season to finish.

    Southend H
    Fleetwood A - might want to take your tickets back
    Gillingham H

    April - hopefully re started
    Wycombe A Sat 4th
    Portsmouth H Fri 10th
    Tranmere A Mon 13th
    Doncaster H 18th
    Bolton A 25th

    Very unlikely for games to be back on in April, peak is predicted to be 13 to 14 weeks, season could be written off.

    Agree. We could be into June and they still think there will be a tail off after 14 weeks of about 6 weeks. So unless the league is finished in July / August it doesn't sound feasible to finish the season. That is of course if the estimates are right.
    The problem then will be legal challenges from the like of Leeds and Liverpool (and possibly even TS).

    The sell out away at Fleetwood will hurt them financially when it’s changed to a night match.

    Proposals now for "Euro international tournament" to be put back a year so domestic competitions can be completed in the summer. Seems sensible to me

    If we extend (hopefully only by a few days) then I’d imagine loans will be until no of season so still ok.

    We only miss three which we might just fit in but be pointless seeing that others are missing more games in this period

    Between now and 5th of April Portsmouth have 6 games scheduled.
    Personally think they will write off the season as I can't see us playing again before end of April. Extend the season and push playoffs back could be a option But the season would finish middle to end of June. Playoff teams will get about 4/5 week to sign players before the season starts again. They would have to extend the transfer window. Plus euros would need to be cancelled.
    don't euro qualification rounds start in July?

    Big sht fest whichever way they go.

    Why is going to a football match more dangerous than sitting on a bus/train, going to university or shopping at meadowhall ?

    It's a good point. However, I work for a transit agency and ride the bus to work here. This past 2 weeks, buses that are normally full to busting (80+ passengers) have had 10-15 people on at most. We have even announced that fare enforcement is being suspended on our trains until further notice so basically anyone who wants to can ride them for free because there are no barriers to entry.
