I miss Andy Gray on FIFA.

Alan Smith is a dreary bastard in comparison.

what happens when you decide there is no time to complete the current season due to a clash... and then we are not able to start the next season either because disruption is still ongoing. Then you have 2 disrupted seasons instead of just 1...

Like I said "up to a point"

THE Premier League could be on TV EVERY DAY to keep fans entertained during social distancing.

That's the claim of Southampton chief executive Martin Semmens who has struck a positive note about the return of the English top-flight amid the coronavirus crisis.

The football season has been put on hold until at least April 30 as the pandemic obliterates the sporting calendar around the world.

A number of discussions have taken place between Premier League clubs since top-flight football was stopped ahead of the weekend of March 14-16.

While this week Prime Minister Boris Johnson insisted he hoped the tide could be turned against Covid-19 within 12 weeks, there can be no guarantee, but Semmens explained why parliament want sport to return.

He told BBC Radio Solent that "at the right time and when everybody was safe" the Premier League suspension could be lifted - assuming football does not use up urgent NHS or police resources.

Semmens said: "When that moment has passed, the government would like us to get back to playing and they would like us to get back to playing because we are in entertainment and we would be a sign that the country is coming back to normal.

"And if people are home for another month and there is a Premier League football game on the TV every day, that can only be a good thing.

"Not because we are more essential than the NHS, but because we can add something to the country to give people some entertainment and show we are fighting back and the country will survive this."

No date for the Premier League or English Football League to resume is pencilled in, but one big issue is players who will be out of contract on June 30.

It has added to growing speculation everything will be done to complete the 2019-20 season by that point.

Saints CEO Semmens told BBC Radio Solent: "We hope to get the league done by the end of June and that would be easier for everybody.

"As soon as you go past that date there are then those legal challenges and issues that we have to fulfil.

"But if we end up playing until the 15th of July and you had to extend a players contract by two weeks, I just don't think when you look at all the challenges the country is facing right now, to try and convince a player to play two more weeks football and get paid very nicely to do it before he moves to a new club, I don't believe that will be a substantial challenge.

"The challenge is making sure we don't have a knock-on effect into other seasons and make football compromised as the years go on."

He's misogynistic at best, I wouldn't qualify that as acceptable. It was 2011.

Specs WT-R75 said:

Players will need to move on, or will be let go no doubt. However all that needs to be agreed, or written into the rules, is that no new signing can play for any team for the last 10 games of the season unless they were a true free agent that was not already at a club prior to the outbreak.

That way players can still move on if they prefer it but there is every incentive for existing players whose contracts are up in June to agree a deal to stay at their current clubs for the last 10 games, or for loan signings to be extended for the last 10 games.

Isn’t something like that in place anyway?

Yup. Not 1974.

More IT Crowd and Peep Show than On the Buses and the Benny Hill Show.

I don't think so, otherwise people wouldn't be going on about this 30th June deadline...

Wonder what attracted her to the millionaire Richard keys.

Now that Richard Keys is out of work perhaps he'll takeover from Rob Gurney.

He looks like a wizard accidentally waved his wand at a potato and brought it to life.
