LONDON: Former English Football Association chairman Greg Dyke said it would be nonsensical for the Premier League to abandon the current season and scratch the rankings, arguing it would lead to huge financial losses.
Premier League chiefs and clubs will meet to discuss the options this week. Current FA boss Greg Clarke told The Times newspaper on the weekend that he did not think the season would be completed. “You might have to play behind closed doors to fulfil the contracts for the broadcasters, otherwise they’re not going to pay up and that could mean hundreds of millions of pounds. You may even have to play three matches a week to get them done,” Dyke told The Times.
Liverpool require two wins to secure their first English top flight title in 30 years and former boss Kenny Dalglish said it would be a travesty if the season is cancelled.
