I posted in the other thread that according to the MEN, the FA are saying that the FA Cup will be completed, even if that means playing this year's remaining games in the first part of next season (the article mentioned October).

They are a separate body from the PL so can proceed differently, and also there are only three rounds to play in that competition now, effecting only eight clubs, so I can see some sense in trying to finish it, even if the league is abandoned.

Different competition but I think everything is tied to tv rights and sponsorship money etc etc . If an agreement had been made to cease these then the season can be cancelled I think . World companies writing off contracts and money all over the place right now with the economic meltdown so who knows ?

One director of a Premier League club has said the FA need to stop worrying how they can give Liverpool the league, and cancel this season now.

That's the same vid that was lampooning the rags a few years back.
I might be wrong, but I seem to remember it was about the 6-1.

i can’t see mass tourist travel resuming until this time next year.
my neighbour works for heathrow. says they are fucked and it’s unlikely that it will ever be the same again as they know that business travel will be massively down from now on...
they have already brought in voluntary salary reductions of 20% and stopped paying perks like car allowances.... that’s only days into all this.
all ba staff at every level have been their hr1 forms which means all 45,000 are at risk of redundancy.

Very true with business travel. All these firms who use zoom or other such things to video conference will think twice a out the costs of doing business the "old way"
And given the experts think Corona may come back in smaller waves in the next year or so, I'd imagine a fair few countries will keep their travel restrictions and border controls in place.

Not too mention how many airlines will actually ride this out and still be trading in a year

Emirates had already announced that pretty much all routes were suspended until 30th June even before the government closed the aiports. It's becoming very clear from China that once you've sorted your shit out internally, the next issue is to stop people entering with the virus. With this in mind, and how bad it is yet to get in Europe and US, I can't see countries like UAE opening it's airspace for international arrivals or transits for a very long time.

With that in mind, there's is absolutely no possibility the Champions League can be completed in the foreseeable future, as international travel restrictions either as blanket or specific by country will be in place for a long time yet.

The people with money saved and money to spend will travel ASAP once this lock -down is over and as soon as a vaccine has been found to work then I think more people will adopt an attitude of live for today and fuck tomorrow and start to enjoy their lives more.

Life is for living now and is not for saving every fucking penny for your late 60,s !

P.S My sister was one of the youngest ever CSD's for BA and she will know next week if shes out of a job.
