Dev,
Do you honestly think there will be a "next" season?
The UK isn't suddenly going to get rid of the virus nor is the rest of Europe.
China have all but got rid of it (supposedly) by locking a whole region down for best part of 2 months. It will flare up again - imported over the border from some country or other.
There is no way lets say South Yorkshire would stand for total lockdown. There would be civil unrest on a massive scale. The UK policy of letting it run its course - hopefully, slowly so the NHS can manage it will mean social distancing for the foreseeable future. Probably at least to the end of the year if not more IMO.
Whilstever planes are allowed to fly infections or infected people without any checks, it will be a long hard road for the rest of us (Ryanair were flying people in and out of Bergamo airport in the middle of Lombardy without checks whilst the region was supposedly in lockdown). The airlines will be desperate to get airborne again to get the cash flowing they wont give a toss who is infected or not as we now know.
The Premier league may be cash rich enough to play games behind closed doors with t.v. rights etc, but theres no way the rest of the English leagues will be able to keep going.
I dont think this season will finish nor will next season start.
