Premier League to allow clubs to play at home venues says pundit
Manchester City fan and English music legend Noel Gallagher believes the Premier League season would have been voided by now if it was not Liverpool who were running away with the title. Liverpool were 25 points clear at the top of the table when football was suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic in March.

"I think they should void it, I think it should have been voided weeks ago.
“The cynic in me thinks if it wasn’t Liverpool going for the title, if it was City or Chelsea, it would have been voided already."
Gallagher is also unhappy at how footballers have been "demonised" in recent weeks and says they should have a right not to play if they don't want to.
“I don’t like the way football players have been demonised since this thing started and I think they’re just trying to prod them back into playing football," he added.
“They’re just young lads, they're just pretty straight forward young lads, they’re not going to want to do it [if it risks their safety].

"If one of them catches the virus then it’s over, isn't it.”
Newcastle left-back Danny Rose, who is on loan from Tottenham, recently revealed his views on the Premier League's resumption.
Rose said on Instagram: “It’s a f***ing joke, I’m not even going to lie. The government is saying bring football back because it’s going to boost the nation’s morale, I don’t give a f*** about the nation’s morale.
“People’s lives are at risk, you know what I mean? Football shouldn’t even be spoken about coming back until the numbers have dropped massively. It’s b*******.”
