Will it happen? The prem are already considering this, or playing behind closed doors, as a lesser precaution.

It could potentially kill off smaller clubs as they rely on attendances for their revenue.

I think in a few weeks this coronavirus thingy will be way out of control.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see what the FA say then.
We might benefit if the season is chalked off but look at Liverpool, they would lose out on winning the league.
That's something they haven't done for 30 years.

I wouldn't like to be the one who makes these decisions.

My guess is the season will continue in some form though.
