My point is this season will be finished whenever that maybe. It could be finished in August/September this year or next year April/May time. They will not void the league because of all the shiiiiit it will cause up and down the divisions.
You don't think the season will be finished I do, lets confirm the bet and then discuss name change terms
My idea is once this season is finished or the league is voided the name change happens.
Lets say 2 months from that date, happy
----------------------------------------------------------------------
More than happy with the proviso that if football starts ridiculously late (after xmas) I think this season will be played to a close as they will have nothing else they can do.
However providing football is able to restart in time to play the whole 20/21 season I believe 19/20 will be null and void. Which is what I think is the likelihood.
Nah you’ve been saying it will be voided, now you’re adding this caveat in
The bet is voided or season finished, no provisos/caveats get outs
A simple bet, don’t bottle it for heaven’s sake.

Haha, I'm not but I've said from the moment the footie stopped that the powers that be will priortise playing the whole of next season over finishing a quarter of this one.
I've never discussed (until now) what would happen in the unlikely event of no football until the new year.
Surely a couple of powerful brains like ours can sort the bet around that?

Once you go past June you are raking up all kinds of legal hornets nests, contracts ending, new ones beginning, clubs changing sponsors and kit manufacturers, clubs changing staff etc etc etc, which is why the idea of finishing a season in Aug or Sept is complete and utter nonsense.
This season became meaningless long ago, dragging it on into next season would be absolute lunacy and only even considered to satisfy a handful of desperate clubs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hmm who to believe... a well known bitter Liverpool hater on an internet forum who says it is nonsense, or the head of UEFA who says it is possible. Tough one.

Too complicated I’m afraid and you’re starting to sound somewhat sensible now. I don’t agree about them sacrificing the last games of this season for next though as it will kill the integrity of competition. Not to mention the financial ramifications through the divisions.
We’ll have to wait and see.

Sorry to sound sensible but for me this has never been an anti Liverpool thing I just happen to think that football will restart around August time and under those circumstances it will be regarded as a better option to play the 20/21 season in full at the expense of finishing this one.

If football is back by August I can personally guarantee this season will be completed. It will have to go beyond August IMO.

They could start in October and ditch the domestic cups. The integrity of league is the most important thing here.

-------
The powers will want to play both seasons because it's all about the money and that's the option that makes the most money. How much this will be possible could depend on how soon/late football can be played again.
If it's very late in the year (October/November) then the season format would have to be condensed. Less games so as to finish by May because of Euros. ACON is supposed to happen in February too. There's also the Olympics problem.
If this goes on long enough there will be no point in starting a new season unless it is a shortened season.
If we're having a shortened season, then we may as well shorten it enough to allow this season to be completed first.
We'll have to wait and see.

------
I've seen this mentioned but the Premier League, the FA and the Football League are different organisations, each running its own competitions.
So you will be asking the FA to cancel ALL their competitions in favour of Premier league competition.
How will the FA make money to pay wages and all their other functions? They'll never agree. Best to share the pie by reducing the number of fixtures in the competitions themselves.
We also have ACON and the league must finish in time for Euros. Etc.

Rebates of 762m?
They'll never pay that. They know they won't have the money after Covid is done.
The league will be completed it seems.
This season will always be illegitimate after everything that has gone on, whatever happens, whether it is completed or binned, there is no way it can be concluded fairly and within the morals of the game.

Of course things are not normal. I wouldn`t be surprised if this season and next season both get dumped. Maybe just play cup competitions next season. Should have time to maybe fit them in over perhaps a four or five month period. Certainly would not have time for league games.
Then reset completely for season 2021-22. Makes sense. Wouldn`t be the end of the world, competitive football stopped for six years from 1939-1945, during the war. A couple of years off now wouldn`t be the end of the world.

So it would be ok to only play cup competitions, but not to only play league fixtures? That's hardly "all or nothing".
But if it's just cup competitions next season then that gives plenty of time for this season to be finished.

This is where we disagree I don't think theres a cat in hells chance of it finishing if the footie returns around that time.
City and Utd could have 18/19 games to play which is going to take well over 2 months to complete. Even without a gap between the 2 seasons the 20/21 season would be too late starting to get it all done unless the Euros were moved again (which won't happen).
In my opinion the money men will see preserving the whole 20/21 season as more important than having a surreal Autumn finish to the 19/20 one.

This means little to no football for what? 2 years?
I struggle to find a club that would survive your suggestion financially. They'd all be wound up by then. Where will the wages and money to run the football organisations come from with no TV money and no bodies through turnstiles?
TV companies are losing subscribers fast at the moment and would have the right to claim rebates of 762m if this season isn't finished. And that's this season alone. If next season is not provided the league could be wound up and we start afresh

My point is this season will be finished whenever that maybe. It could be finished in August/September this year or next year April/May time. They will not void the league because of all the shiiiiit it will cause up and down the divisions.
You don't think the season will be finished I do, lets confirm the bet and then discuss name change terms
My idea is once this season is finished or the league is voided the name change happens.
Lets say 2 months from that date, happy
----------------------------------------------------------------------
More than happy with the proviso that if football starts ridiculously late (after xmas) I think this season will be played to a close as they will have nothing else they can do.
However providing football is able to restart in time to play the whole 20/21 season I believe 19/20 will be null and void. Which is what I think is the likelihood.

Nah you’ve been saying it will be voided, now you’re adding this caveat in
The bet is voided or season finished, no provisos/caveats get outs
A simple bet, don’t bottle it for heaven’s sake.

Haha, I'm not but I've said from the moment the footie stopped that the powers that be will priortise playing the whole of next season over finishing a quarter of this one.
I've never discussed (until now) what would happen in the unlikely event of no football until the new year.
Surely a couple of powerful brains like ours can sort the bet around that?

Once you go past June you are raking up all kinds of legal hornets nests, contracts ending, new ones beginning, clubs changing sponsors and kit manufacturers, clubs changing staff etc etc etc, which is why the idea of finishing a season in Aug or Sept is complete and utter nonsense.
This season became meaningless long ago, dragging it on into next season would be absolute lunacy and only even considered to satisfy a handful of desperate clubs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hmm who to believe... a well known bitter Liverpool hater on an internet forum who says it is nonsense, or the head of UEFA who says it is possible. Tough one.

Too complicated I’m afraid and you’re starting to sound somewhat sensible now. I don’t agree about them sacrificing the last games of this season for next though as it will kill the integrity of competition. Not to mention the financial ramifications through the divisions.
We’ll have to wait and see.

Sorry to sound sensible but for me this has never been an anti Liverpool thing I just happen to think that football will restart around August time and under those circumstances it will be regarded as a better option to play the 20/21 season in full at the expense of finishing this one.

They could start in October and ditch the domestic cups. The integrity of league is the most important thing here.

-------
The powers will want to play both seasons because it's all about the money and that's the option that makes the most money. How much this will be possible could depend on how soon/late football can be played again.
If it's very late in the year (October/November) then the season format would have to be condensed. Less games so as to finish by May because of Euros. ACON is supposed to happen in February too. There's also the Olympics problem.
If this goes on long enough there will be no point in starting a new season unless it is a shortened season.
If we're having a shortened season, then we may as well shorten it enough to allow this season to be completed first.
We'll have to wait and see.

I've seen this mentioned but the Premier League, the FA and the Football League are different organisations, each running its own competitions.
So you will be asking the FA to cancel ALL their competitions in favour of Premier league competition.
How will the FA make money to pay wages and all their other functions? They'll never agree. Best to share the pie by reducing the number of fixtures in the competitions themselves.
We also have ACON and the league must finish in time for Euros. Etc.

Of course things are not normal. I wouldn`t be surprised if this season and next season both get dumped. Maybe just play cup competitions next season. Should have time to maybe fit them in over perhaps a four or five month period. Certainly would not have time for league games.
Then reset completely for season 2021-22. Makes sense. Wouldn`t be the end of the world, competitive football stopped for six years from 1939-1945, during the war. A couple of years off now wouldn`t be the end of the world.

So it would be ok to only play cup competitions, but not to only play league fixtures? That's hardly "all or nothing".
But if it's just cup competitions next season then that gives plenty of time for this season to be finished.

This is where we disagree I don't think theres a cat in hells chance of it finishing if the footie returns around that time.
City and Utd could have 18/19 games to play which is going to take well over 2 months to complete. Even without a gap between the 2 seasons the 20/21 season would be too late starting to get it all done unless the Euros were moved again (which won't happen).
In my opinion the money men will see preserving the whole 20/21 season as more important than having a surreal Autumn finish to the 19/20 one.

This means little to no football for what? 2 years?
I struggle to find a club that would survive your suggestion financially. They'd all be wound up by then. Where will the wages and money to run the football organisations come from with no TV money and no bodies through turnstiles?
TV companies are losing subscribers fast at the moment and would have the right to claim rebates of 762m if this season isn't finished. And that's this season alone. If next season is not provided the league could be wound up and we start afresh

Haha, I'm not but I've said from the moment the footie stopped that the powers that be will priortise playing the whole of next season over finishing a quarter of this one.
I've never discussed (until now) what would happen in the unlikely event of no football until the new year.
Surely a couple of powerful brains like ours can sort the bet around that?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Too complicated I’m afraid and you’re starting to sound somewhat sensible now. I don’t agree about them sacrificing the last games of this season for next though as it will kill the integrity of competition. Not to mention the financial ramifications through the divisions.
We’ll have to wait and see.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes we will.
Sorry to sound sensible but for me this has never been an anti Liverpool thing I just happen to think that football will restart around August time and under those circumstances it will be regarded as a better option to play the 20/21 season in full at the expense of finishing this one.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
August?
If football is back by August I can personally guarantee this season will be completed. It will have to go beyond August IMO.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is where we disagree I don't think theres a cat in hells chance of it finishing if the footie returns around that time.
City and Utd could have 18/19 games to play which is going to take well over 2 months to complete. Even without a gap between the 2 seasons the 20/21 season would be too late starting to get it all done unless the Euros were moved again (which won't happen).
In my opinion the money men will see preserving the whole 20/21 season as more important than having a surreal Autumn finish to the 19/20 one.

Its reported that the league must provide all the games to TV companies by 16th of July or rebates will become payable.
