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

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
Mentioned it on another thread but ..................
Loan Players ?
Still eligible to play ?
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.
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).
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.
