Not sure what the point is your are making. Giving reasons why they don't have provisions for it? Reasons why they should have provisions for it? Just giving some insight I guess.Both World Wars began in September so, a decision to suspend was fairly easy. The seasons had barely begun and nothing was disrupted in that respect.
However, a season extension has legal and contractual issues for many (if not all) teams in the professional game and the upper echelons of the pyramid in England.
Any extension into June would mean a whole load of players being out of contract and (l believe) out of registration and insurance, too. For non league players that deadline is even earlier (end of April?)
It's a big, big headache for clubs and the likelihood is a few will not survive financially nevermind medically.
In any case just because the previous disruptive events where in September they wouldn't bee thinking the next one will also be in September.
Financially, I somehow think there are some things covered by insurance.
Surly you are just having a laughChrist imagine that?

My local comp has provision for forced shortened season. Both for the premiership and championship (kind of like play offs) copms. Anyway, just a thought.
