So with the season likely to come back (at some point, in some form, whatever), I think the break we've had mid season is unprecedented.
Injured players will likely be back, players on their last legs have had a break and rest, it's just not the same as if the season had continued uninterrupted.
Because of this, if the season does come back and Liverpool are crowned champions, I feel like the nation should just call them Corona Cup champions, and not REALLY league champions. They can have it on paper but any mention going forward needs to have an * explaining that one doesn't *really* count.
Anyone else agree? I know its tough to take, but fair's fair. x
Corona Cup?

Corona cup is such a terrible name OP, no one wants to be reminded about it all the time in future. You have the basics of a brilliant idea here, perhaps just improve on the name.

The only fair thing about this season is that Liverpool are crowed champions. Everything else is too close to call. Except maybe Norwich, don't think they could could win enough points even if no one ahead of them got any more points.

League Leaders Trophy would be more appropriate.
You can't really award the actual Premier League trophy with a quarter of the season remaining.

Liverpool are the only team that have actually qualified for next season's Champions league.
You can't really award the actual Champions League and Europa league places to teams that haven't qualified with a quarter of the season remaining.
I'm sure you'll agree as City won't be in either next season anyway.

The top 4 will go into the CL according to UEFA's own guidelines.

And the title will be decided by the PL, not some made up rule by a bunch of fans on the internet who have decided beyond doubt that they know when a title can or can't be awarded.

It'll hardly be a 'Title' with so many games left.

That's OK, hope they just give it and we'll make our own mind up
