Good one
What?? Is this humour?
Yeah, and what's your point?
Not disputing what you're seen on the box but according to the clubs official statement that's not the case, and there's nothing online about it.
If the season is voided then Man United won't be in the Champions League next year!
You seem bitter.
Euro can't be postponed till next year unless FIFA allow to move their qualifiers and AFCON back, which they likely won't?
As if United owners give two fecks about who wins the league.
They want the match day revenue plus the chance to get CL football.
Am I wrong? Why do you want the season voided? The reason is obvious. Funnily enough, as things stand your club is in the final CL spot yet if they void it you're back in the Europa League next season.
I am genuinely buzzing that it might feck you over x.
If it gets cancelled it has nothing to do with football whatsoever. It comes from the powers above. They won’t be thinking about any teams and probably couldn’t give two shiny shites. It’s not a conspiracy in any way. The teams that have been shit just get a lucky break. Liverpool will still get the title, a bit of the gloss is missing off it that’s all.
Arsed?
I thought we'd put this voiding myth to bed
You decide. Did you laugh?
Shit, hadn't thought of that.
Who cares? I’d HAPPILY take another year in the EL. With pleasure.
No chance Boris cancels this. He'd still have us finishing the season amidst a zombie apocalypse.
No they won't.
I despise them and would find it hilarious but let's be honest, it's bollocks.
You don't have to describe that feeling to Liverpool fans. We used to buzz like that on occasions over the last 30 years. It's all we had left.
So you are wrong, United's owners wouldn't want the season to be avoided because we would miss out on CL.
So stop spouting nonsense about us having agendas.
Fans of clubs who'll be robbed. The actual clubs themselves like Sheff Utd who'll miss out on not only the European experience but also the revenue it brings. Teams like West Brom and Leeds who'd be missing out on the massive Premier League cash boost?
Another season?
If this season is declared null and void then United will have only failed to qualify for the CL last season. It will be as though this season never took place. So if football resumes next year as normal next season then that will be the follow up season to 18/19, so i doubt anything would change with Uniteds current contracts.
It will be in the the league rules that the season should be voided if the league is left unfinished due to unforeseen circumstances. Not voiding it according to their own rules will leave them in in massive legal trouble with any teams that would end up worse off. It will be their only option. Teams that suffer due to the voiding will just need to suck it up. I'm not sure why so many people think it can't happen. It's by far the most likely outcome.
31 years incoming mate. It ain't over yet.
Oh it would be beyond hilarious for sure. Can you imagine the uproar and the poems?
Arsenal Brighton officially off.
Why would we want the season voiding? We'd be back in the EL when currently we're on a good run of form and have a very good chance of making top 4.
If it’s postponed for a few weeks Spurs get Kane and Son back to finish the season. Possibly before we play them too.
If Klopp hadn't ranted at length about having a mid season break for his tired little dears, then they might have already won the league.
Not arsed. Sorry!
Liverpool fans have to be thinking they're cursed and they'll never win the title again.
In all seriousness, some things are more important than football. From RAWK:
This is an excellent point.
