  • "That's one of the main reasons for delaying the Euros, to allow a window that, if the virus gets under control, there will be a window to potentially finish the season. At the moment, we don't know what's going to happen. We're planning every eventuality, so that we can react. The most important thing at the moment is people's health," said Bullingham.

    'FA building up a contingency for every different eventuality'

  • "Clearly there are different scenarios, if you try and finish the season before the end of June and after it. At this moment in time, there are so many variables, we're building up a contingency for every different eventuality. Some are more complicated than others but the number one priority at the moment is the health of the nation," he added.
