Looks like we may make an escape this season after all...

You have no idea whether you will struggle or not, easy to say you will throw money at staying up but Villa have spent a fortune and are 19th and Fulham spent a fortune and went down.
ps. I wouldn't be too hopeful of getting lots of dirty Qatar oil money, not if oil prices remain this low. Helps to pay attention to what's happening in the world. Saudi Arabia's marginal extraction price is a fraction of Qatar's, and the cheapest in the world to extract, which means Saudi Arabia can cripple every oil reliant economy if they drive the price low enough. They hate Iran and want to cripple their economy, which they will do by driving oil prices even lower. Unfortunately the marginal extraction price of oil in Qatar is exactly the same as it is in Iran.
So good luck with that!

It seems impossible to complete this season, wait with interest.

Honestly, although it pains me, the fairest thing to do is to complete the season, and delay the start on next.

Season extended indefinitely, with no games until at least April 30th.

They seem desperate to finish the season, which is fine, but they don’t seem to be taking any notice of the government or medics who are saying this could go on for months. I think the earliest we could get some football is the end of May, and that’s if we’re lucky.

Not a hope of finishing the season. The EPL may think they are a law unto themselves, but in this they definitely are NOT.

Obviously there comes a point where they have to consider fitting all next season in, before the Euros next summer.
