If it had happened to us I'd be focused more on the fact that thousands of people across the world are dying and on hoping my friends and relatives are safe. Football, frankly, is unimportant right now.
I recall we were relegated the day of the Bradford fire, going down faded completely into insignificance
Our thoughts were just with those poor sods who went out to watch a game and never got to go home

they should play out this season and scrap the next one or shorten it so that people only play each other once.

Could also maybe make leagues 1 and two regionalised next year so there's four divisions of 12 teams who play each other twice and the top two from each one gets promoted and the two bottom ones from the league one get relegated. Then relegate the bottom one in each of the league 2 sides. I guess for promotion to the championship the top ones go up and the two sides that finish second play off.

Nice thought, don't think it will happen but nice thought anyway. NL may want it back early because we have no staff now to polish it

Suspended until 30 April. The National League is the only one so far to have suspended 'indefinitely', suspect the EFL and PL will do the same.
