Sports authorities and broadcasters have been summoned by the government for discussions on coronavirus contingency plans - as the Premier League considers banning over-70s at matches.

The meetings will be held in London on Monday and will cover various possibilities in case the virus spreads further.


On what could happen to the Premier League, Sky News' sports correspondent Martha Kelner said: "The Premier League is prepared for the possibility that Public Health England will advise that some fixtures this season will have to be played behind closed doors, as has been the case in other European leagues like Italy and Morocco.

The way Rangers have been playing domestically recently Slippy G would have loved the games to have been played behind closed doors.

  Behind closed doors, like a masonic meeting without the handshakes, would suit Rangers.10 penalties awarded to them,every game

Presuming because they were already to go. Game was just about to KO when the minister made the announcement

There's a new craze sweeping Manchester United fans everywhere. They've cut out handwashing and taken to rubbing their hands off random surfaces such as door knobs and taps, and then patting other people on the mouth without warning. All this is an effort to rapidly spread the Coronavirus to such an extent that the Premier League is abandoned before Liverpool can win it. These superspreading United fans may end up killing themselves or more likely their grandparents by doing all this, but that's a small price to pay - just think of the unreal bragging rights they'll have when Liverpool are denied the title!

Very wired watching the game with no fan noise, practically no sound when the commentators are saying nothing
