Interesting quote from the new chief exec of the premier league yesterday post the meetin

Masters said the issue of scrapping relegation had not been raised at any Premier League meetings.

"Not in our meetings, last week or today," he said. "All I can go on is what we're discussing in our meetings. And you specifically asked about scrapping relegation while playing out the season, and that has never been raised in our formal meetings at all."

Some journalists are also claiming that the clubs were told the broadcasters want a rebate of some of the TV monies even if the games are played behind closed doors. Which seems ridiculous and begs the question why bother.
