Lucky, Lucky Liverpool.
Football, like life, isn't about getting what you want or even deserve. It's about appreciating what you have.

I know this is serious, but I honestly cannot see where a voided season will happen.

The legal ramifications from countless teams would be horrendous - us and Leeds particularly.
Hopefully, after a delay, the season will pick up where it left off or some kind of logarithm will be used to calc final places, similar to cricket.
There's no way we're not winning this.

If the season can't go on the EPL should just give us it, agree no relegation this season, and invite Leeds/West Brom in next season, then have 5 go down the following year...

Think we'll still be okay, but it has put a real ball-acher on what should be a joyous time for us fans

Hey, at least it's brought an element of suspense to our title challenge. Was far too comfortable for a while there.

There is no suggestion at this point that the season will be cancelled, indeed every indication is they want to finish it when possible. If people want to worry about that at this point go ahead, but it's a waste of time and energy that is better spent on other things at present.

I keep seeing this and again I ask, who is suggesting currently that football is "the most important thing". If you come on a liverpool football club fan forum it should not be stunning to see people discuss the impact of this on liverpool football club.

I suggest mentally preparing for a longer suspension unfortunately.

I'm mentally preparing for the season to be voided. Prepare for the worst, hope for the best and all that.

Obviously there are more important things at stake then the footy, but of all the less important things in life LFC remains by far the most important. My lifelong wait for the title goes on...

So will the players need a new pre-season or will the club keep them ticking over until we're back up and running.  Might be a good opportunity for a few of our players to get some much needed rest.

This.

People on here are hysterical over football being suspended and a team not winning a trophy instead of worrying about the potential ramifications of the virus on their families, communities not just in terms of health but also financially.
Mark my words. Top 8 will be a massive struggle.
We won't make any big signings this season and we will go back to being a top4 club.

Of course you can. You can carry on worrying about a team winning a trophy and getting secondary pleasure out of it, then. :D

I think everyone should just lay down and think exclusively on the say, top three, worst possible concequences of the coronavirus and ignore everything else. To even consider speaking of something other than that is disrespectful.

Fair enough.

Bigger picture is the most important thing. Even having it behind closed doors would mean (too many) people gather which is too dangerous at this very moment.
I can't see it being voided though, but no idea how they solve it although a few ideas do come to mind.

the legal minefield it would couse if the league does not finish does not bear thinking about. Top four, relegation issues promotion etc. The thing that cannot be held in any doubt is that we have a 25 point lead. Some things are more important then football we just need to be patient and let this all play out.
