so chester in 7 th on 54 points from 32 games or gateshead on 52 points from 31 games.
no season should be null and void.Start a fresh next season.same for all leagues.No title for Liverpool

Now, that would be funny!

My own view is that next season should be 2 seasons in one; some of which could be behind closed doors or in front of limited maximum attendances...season ticket holders only?

July August the curtain raiser....remaining matches and play offs replace pre season...promotion relegation and championships decided.
Sept to May....a reduced league fixture for the promoted relegated and stay where you are clubs....everyone plays each other once....maybe an enhanced FA cup and trophy with home and away legs to make up the shortfall of fixtures.

Fairest way...clubs win promotion fair and square and we get a full (reduced) season with everyone where they are on merit.

Only downside Liverpool will get their deserved title.....gonna be really funny if they get it by default or are denied in a null and void scenario....we wuz robbed!!!

Interesting  stuff I think National League North will either be null and void or ppg ,I cant see next season starting until at least September with crowd limits which is best case scenario .Worst case no footy at this level next season according to some media reports.

Your worst case scenario would be interesting. It would decimate the number of clubs

[Mrs Warbouys]

Next season will possibly start a few weeks late in a worst case scenario in my opinion.

Hope that's right but not what  many media  people are saying all a bit doom and gloom from them

[Bath Alty]

That’s why I think it’s odd they’ve closed this season now. If the official restart is next February finishing this season’s fixture list will work fine. What do you do with a Feb start date if you’ve binned off this season as void?

[robininstockport]

Totally agree Bath Alty. Couldn't finish this season quick enough but no idea when next season can start.

The written press and media have enjoyed catastrophising every part of this awful situation. We’d never win the hearts and minds in a proper war with these People frightening people and filling everyone with negativity every day.

They've been a disgrace; never mention how many people have recovered/been let out of hospital etc

30k people dying is the most we've had a for a while Pete.

[Mrs Warbouys]

500,000 people die every year in the UK. However I’m not specifically talking about the tragic death rate. It’s the general demeanour of the press. Good news doesn’t make headline good headlines. People need some hope not people continually asking the prime minister to apologise for nearly dying or saying Christmas is cancelled or there will
Be no live sport until 2021. They know f**k all like the rest of us on such matters. They just have a bigger platform to speculate on 

[cheshire cat]

Have you thought that the government might be happy with the situation. They needed to get the fear out there to get people to co-operate and stay at home. The press had a part to play. They've asked questions of the government but haven't forced the issue when the government has sidestepped the question. In my opinion the press have let the government off lightly.

It's always been the case that bad news sells better than good news. Captain Tom is last weeks good news story but the bad news will rumble on for some time yet.

There's not a lot of sport available to fill the media with at the moment.

One story waiting in the wings is Liverpool FC. Is it going to be disgust at Liverpool being unable to cement the title or is it 1000's of spectators ignoring lockdown to celebrate outside Anfield. We'll have to wait and see. Either way you can bet there will be a lot more words written on that than the excellent season they had to get them in that position.
