The Premier League said in a statement they are "considering the first tentative moves forward" and "will only return to training and playing with government guidance".

"No decisions were taken at today’s meeting and clubs exchanged views on the information provided regarding 'Project Restart,' the statement added.

"It was agreed that the PFA, LMA, players and managers are key to this process and will be further consulted.

"The clubs reconfirmed their commitment to finishing the 2019-20 season, maintaining integrity of the competition and welcomed the government’s support."

If true it's likely cos Liverpool fans have posted death threats to Daniel Levy.

Another low

seemingly nothing new out of the EPL zoom meeting today. It probably only lasted 40 minutes as Levy was too tight to sign up to the premium version which removes the 40-minute restriction

Players are already started to make it clear they won't play if the social distancing is still in place and there is a danger of them getting the virus.

It doesn't matter about the money greaseballs at the FA and PL who bend over and drop their trousers to accommodate the usual suspects clubs and also their media accomplices
So watch this space.

Ignoring match going fans. Forcing PL players to play against their will. Risking the lives of those involved. Just so Liverpool fans can say they won a PL ffshonestly that club man.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Those poor premier league players, how hard it must be forcing them to play against their will and only pocketing 40 grand a week for their efforts.

Any footballer in his right mind would just get a job at B and Q or Asda and be forced to work for 10 quid instead surely?!?!

Who is to say that playing behind closed doors will save clubs from folding,especially those in the lower leagues.

Show us proof and it might sway some to want to watch sterile games played behind closed doors

So you think basically having no games for the next year is going to do clubs a favour?

Not asked you for an opinion I've asked you for some sort of proof,especially for clubs in the lower leagues.

How is playing in empty stadiums going to save them from folding.

Simple question and I don't ask for anything other than a simple answer to show how they will be saved

Games will be televised, even lower league clubs, money will be distributed more evenly, they have already said this.

Considering the huge percentages of income in lower leagues come from attendances then the distribution would have to be far higher than it is at the moment.

Considering the TV deals already in place and Prem clubs and championship clubs are crying poverty.How much are they going to willingly distribute to lower league clubs to keep them afloat.

Bury went to the wall before a ball was kicked this season and only one Premiership club tried to help them out and that was rebuffed by the authorities due to a technicality.

The fact ALL games will be shown on TV tells me that they will receive more money.

Its brutal. A goal goes in and its meaningless. Feels so empty and after a few games you give up.

The governement needs to make everyone wear masks and then you can go watch football.
