Will make organising -- and potentially reorganising - the fixtures easier should "elite" sport be suspended in the next week or so.


I’m out of the loop a bit, is this expected?

No. Some people have been calling for it to be suspended, but not particularly vocally.

Not expected but I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if it happened.

If that happens, then it's all over. They won't have time to extend the season unless Euro 2020 and the Olympics get cancelled.

Will it be suspended have no suggestion of that as long as covid outbreaks are limited and breaches also. At the moment the outbreaks are still minor compared to the rest of society

There was a pretty major incident, sadly, at Marine where signifcant crowds gathered outside the stadium to greet the players and staff arriving. Very little SD visible, it's that sort of thing that'll bring the curtain down, rather than footballing matters.

FACR3 - Southampton vs Shrewsbury pp due C19 at the weekend, now scheduled for next Tuesday, originally scheduled match was a BT Sport pick on BTSX. No broadcast arrangementsas yet for the rearranged match.

Southampton's PL match due on the following evening (Sky Sports) at Leeds has as a result been postponed.

It wasn't one of the normal broadcast picks BT made... it was a match being covered for international viewers, which then became one of the 11 digital/RB matches that BT got extra. The broadcast fees to the clubs were set accordingly 50% lower than the main picks.

So unless BT foot the bill for an extra full pick (which I'm not sure is allowed), it'll probably end up as originally intended - a world feed production on BTSX.
