Cancel the Premier League season
The Goverment needs to make the call and cancel the current Premier League season like how the French Goverment have. Its quite clear under the current climate the Premier League teams are putting financial economics above the nations health.
Staging Football contradicts current lockdown law, will only encourage fans to break such lockdown as fans will attend stadium forcing Police to attend.
We will have people then attending parks to play football, a further risk of spreading the virus.
Having NHS staff at empty stadiums is a complete waste of time and effort when people are dying.
I find it a insult when i hear of deaths of friends and families dying to covid 19, that football will make us feel better, it is just stupid!
