There are lower league clubs teetering at the edge and having no income for at least two match days can be the difference of going out of business.
Of course if there are clubs experiencing multiple cases of coronavirus infections, then there is a better argument of postponing games.

extended to 30 April now. I reckon we are looking at finishing the season with matches with no crowds

The PL returns, and Aston Villas keeper falls into the side net with the ball in his hand, and the technology rules it out because the cameras didnt see the ball cross the line..... but literally every single person watching around the world saw a clear goal. What is going to happen if Villa end up surviving this year by a point they won off the back of this farce, of Sheffield United miss out on Europe losing 2 key points?
Its a total farce. We can spend 10 minutes replaying things to check if a single strand of hair on someones head might be 1mm offside, but the ball thunders over the line by a meter and the referee waves play on.
Get rid of this nonsense, its causing more problems then anything; if the hawkeye system cant spot a ball that far over the line, then its not fit for purpose.
