Default Re: New Season threatened

I'm no expert so the following are speculations not based on any current knowledge.

Looking at previous pandemics, Spanish Flu, The Plague, the second wave is usually worse than the first. They can also go on for years. Until a successful jab has been developed and is widely available we will have to live with Covid 19.

Following the mass gatherings of the past few days it is almost inevitable that there will be a rise in cases - I expect Government to respond by not allowing 'crowds' to assemble. I would imagine that the Premier League will continue without spectators but that is obviously not an option for lower league and national league clubs. It might mean that there will be no national league season 2020/1 and I think there is likely to be a greater chance of sheep grazing on the Racecourse than us watching our team.

If that is the case then many clubs will not survive - we may all have to support the Club financially until they are in a position to generate their own finances.
