Meritocracy is sacrosanct. The outcome of sport has to ALWAYS be on sporting merit.

But also, I think the league should be null & voided as I would prefer Liverpool don't win it. Plus my team could end up in a relegation battle and I want to protect our place in the EPL.
I would also like the shitty six punished in a way that will benefit my team. But it is also good for everyone if they do that because it would balance the league more. I know most of those teams got there purely on merit and it goes against everything I said before. I'm a pratt.
Last season we sat and watched Liverpool piss all over the league in a way nobody has ever done before. Teams were conceding the title to them in December.

So if you tried to use a pandemic in which millions have died worldwide to try and fuck them over out of a league title
then you never again in your life get to try and claim the moral high ground for anything. You have proven yourself to be a piece of shit who will use literally anything for your own tribalism.

Own it. It is yours.
In France, they cancelled football and awarded the league to PSG because it was clear to anybody with a double digit IQ they were far enough ahead that nobody would catch them.

Liverpool eventually won the league with their pre-lockdown points total.
Here rather than have a conversation about what would be the right and fair thing to do, everyone just looked out for their own self interests. Teams near the bottom wanted null and void. Teams in a battle for UCL & Promotion places wanted it to continue.
That is what the whole football structure is. Everybody looking out for themselves. Bury went bust and no longer exist in the football league. Yesterday's announcement suggests the same could happen for FC Girondins de Bordeaux. Many other teams in France probably follow them.
Are these same tub-thumping people who shouted about how we are all in this together doing anything to help. No. Their not. Because it doesn't affect them.
