If anything this crisis has done its highlight the absolute poor quality of many of our journalists both mainstream and sporting..

That’s also the Editors job to say no.

See my previous post I'd include them as equally poor at anything pertaining to poor quality of journalism.

Would be more than happy to see quite a few of them go under.
Fair point. It was a couple of weeks ago when I heard that and things have moved on.

Would raise an interesting question how does the championship restart with Wales still on lockdown when both Swansea and Cardiff are part of the setup..

No, it's an honest response. Where will it end, teams taking legal action because this team or that team has players now available who werent before due to injury or other reasons, players possibly out of contract or end of loan. It's a legal minefield that only lawyers, barristers and the like will win.
There is no fair way out, so just call it done finishing the leagues as they are and take all the risks from playing games away.

There is no fair way out so let's use the least fair solution possible?

has anyone asked Duckworth and Lewis if they can work out a formula?

And that option wouldnt create legal issues either???????
Sadly Mr Lewis recently died, this is genuine by the way, as otherwise it would have been resolved to everyones satisfaction. If Mr Duckworth was left to do it alone then all sorts of nonsense could happen. There needs to be balance in The Force.

Of course it would potentially, but I'm thinking about peoples health and well being and the ability to start next season on time and without further complications. Sadly there isn't any answer that doesn't impact on everyone one way or another,

We just finish this one when safe to.

Why on earth would it be more important to start next season 'on time' than to finish a season that's 80% through with everything up in the air? Next season can start whenever but there are unresolved issues here.Of course it would potentially, but I'm thinking about peoples health and well being and the ability to start next season on time and without further complications.

You can radically alter a season that hasn't even begun because it will be the same for everybody for all of their games. But you can't radically alter the season now when it's 80% played because that's impossible to do fairly.

Next season is just that "NEXT"...finish this season whenever and then plan for the following one. Can't see why it couldn't pretty much run from the end of this one as won't be a need for a break for players.
I just wish any talk of a return to professional sport would quieten down until it's appropriate - still seems unseemly to me when so many are dying and suffering still.

I agree on both points, no rest time needed before it restarts, maybe just a week and then go. They are having their extended break right now. And I don't know why talk of football seems to have ramped up this past week when it still seems a long way off being safe to play.

...there are plenty over here wanting them to join the League of Wales and not play in England. But of course they are sat on their bums in Cardiff and tend not to watch football!
I cannot believe that it is ok to play football at the mo. If it wasnt for Sky waiting on a rebate, the season would have been cancelled long since.... or deferred for a long as needed.
