There would be an asterisk next to this season with Liverpool winning it, and with good reason.

Never mind being the most legitimate title win ever with VAR scrutiny, the fact that the team overcame a global pandemic to triumph would make it the greatest title win ever.

Asterisk, bring it on, never in recent history would a team have had to overcome such difficulties to win the league.

Greatest title win ever.

A void season will not have a title winner.

Just heard If season is cancelled then Liverpool won't be given the PL trophy, but to recognise such a fine season, a one off trophy is being commissioned just for Liverpool. It will be called Victory and Recognition or VAR for short.

We'll be playing this season at the start of next season. Late July / early August.

The Euros will be postponed and I'd imagine to ease the congestion they'll also get rid of the domestic cups for a year.

Sandy you keep saying this season be voided and then start again with next season, but you also keep saying you don't see any football for the rest of the year. Surely you must realise those two scenarios cannot both exist?

If the leagues can't start again until January then there's no possible way we can have a regular League season in such a short amount of time.

If any season or part of a season is to be voided it will be one that hasn’t started yet.

Overcame a global pandemic ?

Which everyone else also faced
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, and for Spurs it would be the greatest 8th placed finish ever.

Look forward to your article on it.

Good one

Think this is very true. This season will finish at some point but 2020/21 likely to be truncated.

Palmers, you were badmouthing me on the Liverpool board, so you can have a few weeks rest. Not nice to call other posters idiots.

Oh man up Sandy ffs

It has to be a void season if there is no football in the next couple of months.

All this talk about promoting Leeds and WBA is bs. Imagine if you were a team below them not to mention the amount of games which would need to arranged with the extra fixtures. Don't forget we need to complete the Euros as well. The African Nations need playing then the WC in 2022.

Off the back of this virus the season start date could be be changed forever as well.

People need to be as open minded about this whole situation going forward.

A void season would also mean clubs missing out on the end-season TV payments that keep them afloat. No chance of anyone letting that happen.

Seeing we can’t decide I have a new method:

- each club nominated two players
-these players are sent to an island where ver to choose weapons, only non ballistic ones.
- fight!
- last remaining players win the league, the first 3 out get relegated. The 2nd,3rd and 4th’s teams get CL places.

Sorted.

I’d nominate Big Virg and Robertson.

Might as well give us that trophy now.

Nope. If the season is cancelled with 9 games to go and Liverpool are handed the title it will go against all that football and sport stands for. That is to play until the end as anything can happen.

Yes it's highly unlikely that Liverpool would lose the title from their current position but while it remains possible then the season should either reconvene when it is possible to do so or be written off.

This happened when the UK entered WW2 and football was cancelled in September 1939. The season had already began but was cancelled and didn't start again until after the war had ended several years later

By the way, it would be totally unfair and terrible bad luck if this happens as Liverpool will clearly win the title this season. However, handing them the title with 9 games left isn't what sport and competitions are about,

Why would you not finish this season, when you could truncate a new season where we all know where we stand?

Phil Jones and Pogba for us. Pogba should be able dance past any opponents and Phil Jones will keep going even if all that’s left of him is a broken pile of bones, which ironically will be the same as he started as....

Not sure about that. As long as sky continue to take subscriptions from customers then legally they will have to pay out to clubs. After all watching your favourite team on sky is half the reason people subscribe in the first place.

If Sky refuse to pay what they owe to the Prem clubs then they should refund all the subscription money to customers dating back to August 2019

Precisely.

Like I said removing; international breaks, mid season break, FA cup replays, league cup will give enough time back for the 20/21 season and all teams will know exactly where they stand and will allow 19/20 season to finish, and on it's own merits.

Love how people are pretending they are neutral, whilst ensuring they communicate that LFC shouldn't be given the title and the season should be voided.

Of course it shouldn't, utterly daft to think the 2019/20 season won't run to completion at some point.
