Premier League agree to resume contact training

|

 Claret and Hugh say:

This vote for contact training was always going through on the nod without any real dissent from the Premier League shareholders.  Top-flight clubs are now free to resume full content training subject to government guidelines and Premier League protocols as they gear up for the league to re-start in June.  Tomorrow they will discuss what penalties will be in place for clubs or players that break these protocols but it remains unlikely a restart date will be chosen this week.

The UEFA deadline of 25th May came and went on Monday without a decision and the prospect of a restart on 12th June seems to be slipping away now. It is much more likely that the top-flight league will resume on 19th or 26th June with Premier League  CEO Richard Masters publicly admitting this week that the restart date is flexible.
