The more appropriate question for this thread would be, when will be safe and sensible for social distancing and isolation to be reduced?

I don't see why it can't be behind closed doors, it would give the country a much needed moral boost if they showed a couple of behind closed doors Premier League matches on TV every night.
Players might catch Coronavirus, but the match can just be called off if it's half the team out.
lockdown over by the end of May.. possibly but only if the country has become so bored it’s willing to accept 80 year olds dying by the hundred each day just to get the rest of life back under way.
Knowing this country it may well be willing to accept that.
Why would the leagues commit to a 30th June deadline
There might be a small summer window to finish the games behind closed doors but does anyone want that? And even then it just takes one person at a club to shut it down again.
Next march would not shock me.
Anything after June will have huge consequences due to sky payments. If it’s not close to being finished I don’t see them making the payments or asking for a reduction in amount.
Who says 30th June is the deadline?
Integrity of football seasons v the survival of life. Not even a debate for crying out loud.
It isn't. But who wants behind closed doors football? People are stupid and will gather outside the grounds. It is a non starter. Sport is so far down the list of things we need to give a fuck about. I feel daft even being on here to be honest.
I imagine one of the reasons that behind closed doors is off the table is down to the inevitable crowds that would gather.
If Liverpool were to win a game that clinches the league title, the streets would be filled with jubilant fans and would almost certainly spike the Corona curve as opposed to flattening it.
Police on the streets. Like France. Arrest them if they congregate outside the ground.
Don't think it will be long before it's back on TV, but it will probably be last seasons games.....
Nobody. But to complete the season and keep people happy, behind closed doors will have to do.But who wants behind closed doors football?
I’m struggling to see how playing football behind closed doors is going to increase the risk of deaths in this country.
The players and staff (Roy Hodgson aside) are in the low risk category so aren’t going to die from coronavirus.
EastEnders suspending filming and only on twice a week instead of the 5 or 6 or whatever it is. They have months already filmed and are cutting broadcasting so there is many more months to air. Anyone who thinks football is coming back any time soon needs to have a quick look at what is actually being put in place
Fucking hell! Just when we need Eastenders the most, for once the story lines are more cheerful than real life!
Difficult to know what you mean by “returning”? Do you mean live games with supporters in attendance? If so I think September.Bored already when can you see Football returning .. ?
