Looks like all leagues, not just CL and Europa League, could agree postponement of all football next Tuesday including the PL
The full statement reads: "In the light of the ongoing developments in the spread of COVID-19 across Europe and the changing analysis of the World Health Organisation, UEFA has today invited representatives of its 55 member associations, together with the boards of the European Club Association and the European Leagues and a representative of FIFPro, to attend meetings by videoconference on Tuesday 17 March to discuss European football’s response to the outbreak.
Season to end on March 17

I agree the games need to be played, but it isn't easy.
Personally i think that teams should all be tested and the isolate themselves and get games finished behind closed doors as early as possible and be done with it.

Yep said this myself earlier pretty much. Halt the league for two weeks while testing is done.

Yeah, agree. It seems the most logical way to go about things. They can even play Saturday/Sunday.....Tuesday/Wednesday to speed it up and then deal with the Euro comps in the summer once the QFs are drawn.

The COVID-19 virus, if not being nurtured and kept alive within a warm human body will last at most, 24 hours
So shut it all down for 2 weeks, then resume business as usual

Much rather have the trophy parade in July..
It means it can be planned properly and brilliantly and even have the red arrows in to do a fly past as we are league champions once again.

Except Boris Johnson said that the peak is about 12 weeks away and that the government aren't going to do anything about it.
