I can see a scenario where the prem finishes at neutral venues ...

With extra subs etc to fulfil the tv contracts but this is far far removed from the integrity of football line. No home advantage no crowds etc etc. I’ve also seen no close contact at corners etc so in essence a totally different game

I am very doubtful that the championship and leagues below will be able to finish.

Can teams be relegated and more so teams promoted when leagues below don’t finish. I don’t see any of the eventual bottom 3 taking kindly to this and rightly so. Would really hope we wouldn’t roll over in this scenario
