    Premier League Must Be Completed – Hodgson

    Roy Hodgson, Crystal Palace’s manager has said that the Premier League season must be played to a finish after coronavirus pandemic.

    This, he said is important instead of using “artificial means” to decide the champions as well as relegation and Champions League spots.

    The season was originally suspended until April 30 but that has since been extended indefinitely.

    The resumption of play is now contingent on medical advice and government support.
    Hudgson said; “Everyone is in total agreement we need an end to this season.

    “We don’t want artificial means of deciding who wins the league, who gets into the Champions League, who gets relegated and promoted.
    “Ideally our players would have three or four weeks minimum to prepare for the first match back but I accept there may have to be a squeeze on that time frame.

    “It might mean extra restrictions at our place of work.
    “It may also mean that we have to play our remaining matches in a shorter period of time than we normally would have done and subsequently receive a shorter break between the seasons,” Hodgson said.

    Crystal Palace are 11th in the league and have nine matches left to play.
