It looks like Liewell has already been doing his work on Doncaster, this is form a few days ago mind you.

Doncaster added it could make finishing the season "very difficult" even if it hits "the first team of one club".

However, there is no danger that the campaign would be declared void.

It could be taken out his hands

Probably a dumb question but does behind closed doors mean no TV coverage too or is it just behind closed doors for supporters? 

Just fans surely

Likely end up in the courts if league is stopped and teams positions are considered final.

Saying that the Orks have done well collecting tainted titles.

Yes I agree mate, it was just that he seemed keen to say the season would not be void, the Liewell effect I am sure.

Can you imagine our board having the balls to do that. Nae chance IMO.

What are the monetary implications of this now?

I'm guessing there shouldn't be any, TV revenue and possible prize money shouldnt be affected and we dont share gate receipts do we?

I would say there is more chance it could end up in court if the league isn’t restarted from scratch.

I think the europa league and champions league will end up being scrapped for this season.

Yip. There’s a game in the EL already been cancelled plus Wolves have asked for their game this week to be cancelled. 

The virus expected to get worse over the next 4-6 weeks so wouldn’t expect either tournament to be completed. 

A number of leagues will be cancelled as well - just need to wait and see if ours is one of them.

Pretty sure there's precedent, pass the decision to the fans as the majority of other clubs did in 2012. 

Won't just be us either, those teams that get relegated, miss out on europe/promotion)playoffs etc etc. Mine field!

[Bigsasasfloppyhair 13,310]

SFA will do anything to allow them another treble. Not expect any other outcome.

So glad I don't go to games and just watch on TV 

[STEPPS BOY 74,034]

The SPL would rather bring in bubble football than cancel our league.

[Prso's headband 35,511]

Fucked it. Out a good few hundred now. Just hoping they cancel flights to Germany, that’s my only hope of getting money back

[MattyBlue 17,132]

Haven’t a load of European FAs requested the euros to be postponed til next year to complete domestic seasons? I’m sure I read that earlier

It certainly will, as long as we stop them getting 9 this season I am all for it being stopped. 🤪

Yes hopefully that will happen mate, not sure what the rules are for a situation like this ? 

Cant see it as everyone can still travel, just cant go to the game. 

Travel companies aren't doing too well at the moment, so unless they're forced to then I just cant see it unfortunately.

Anyone else think no home fans could be in our advantage? 

Only very slightly. Would still expect them to beat us at a friendly game in Auchenhowie.

I'm sure Hearts certainly would. They'd be relegated when they're only bottom by 3 points with 9 games left.

Shouldn’t affect Scotland as we never qualify for any euros/world cups anymore lol....

I think it will be difficult for folk to get back any flight money unfortunately.

Only really take 1 player with serious symptoms either positive or having to self quarantine, especially if theyve came into contact with other teammates / opponents who should also then self quarantine.

unless there is UK govt advice not travel which might still happen as 9 days is a long time in regards to how this is escalating 

[esquire8 42,901]

Every single league league cancelled will be declared null n void. Theres too much legal ramifications if they took the current standings as final. Even up here where the taigs run the game behind the scenes. celtic wont be declared champions, same with Liverpool, Juventus, PSG etc. Teams wont be made bankrupt by lack of winnings or gate receipts as they would be insured for these situations.
