    That's not true.

    But even if it was, that doesn't tally with your statement about completing ALL competitions. Now all of a sudden it's all about Liverpool again. Your mask slips easily fella <ok>

    Funnily enough the reason for the PL Clubs wanting that cut off is to do with player contracts. Now if only someone had mentioned this on here before <whistle>

    If the PL rule to end the league on 30th June then it's obvious the FA will follow suit. But I hope I'm wrong.

    Tbf this date was always on the cards and unless something drastically improves with the Coronavirus I can't see it being completed by then.

    I know you're a Scouser, Tobes. Do you have any mates who are Kopites like me? I have BS mates, and good ones. You don't really hate us and not want us to win the league, do you?

    What happens with the league pyramid this season doesn’t revolve around Liverpool mate.

    Tobes won't accept it. Some teams will have had home advantage. Void next season too.

    Don't think that's practical for the EFL.

    Only if you start the competition with all clubs agreeing that it’d start behind closed doors but change when Govt advice allowed, then that advantage has been accepted by all, before a ball was kicked.

    So nice try, but another epic logic fail from you.

    The PL will be finished this season and FWIW I don't think the fact Liverpool WILL be crowned Champions will really come into the PL negotiations .

    It's ALL about the £££££££££££!!!

    It's true though, plenty of clubs simply won't be able to afford to stage matches without the punters beyond 'this' season.

    How can some teams have had home advantage when they all start in empty stadiums?

    No they didn’t. They started this season accepting the rules that the governing body had issued.

    What’s happened since is force majeure.

    Are you actually a scouser btw?
