S9M30: The last blog for a while?

It's rare that my day(night) job and my blog truly merge, but hey, we're due a new virus every decade or so, so here's the opportunity.

I'm writing this, expecting that PL football is about to be, as a minimum, played behind closed doors, and more likely, postponed as a result of Covid-19. It's pretty difficult to justify taking drastic measures to reduce the spread of disease and then allow thousands of people to stand in pretty close proximity to each other, and as more footballers test positive for the virus - which will happen, it'll make the daily operation of a football club near impossible. So we're on for suspension in my opinion which will of course put this blog into hibernation - fortunately as I'm likely to be handed a whole lot of extra work if reports are to be believed.

So, let's all hope for a speedy resolution we can all get behind - the season being cancelled and no winner being declared, and European football being awarded to clubs based on proximity to Impossibilitee Towers. Oh, and clubs can unilaterally add an extra on to the contracts of any world class Gabonese players on their books too.
