PL consider a MAJOR change for the ‘Restart Project’ after the protest from relegation-zone clubs

    The Premier League could change major points in the ‘Restart Project’, allowing the club to play their home games as usual, The Time has reported.  According to the initial plan, the League should have chosen several stadiums as neutral venues that will host the remaining 92 matches. This point caused controversies among the clubs. In particular, Aston Villa, Brighton and Watford, later joined by West Ham United, Norwich City and Bournemouth, are against playing away from home.  The reason is simple. Those clubs that are battling in the relegation zone, mostly take points in their home venues. No surprise that they have united against the idea of ‘neutral venues’.  The Premier League fears other teams could join those 6 and vote against the ‘Restart Project’, which would mean cancelling the season. After Monday’s meeting the league could remove this point and allow the teams to play their home games at their stadiums.  Earlier, the UK government has announced they will allow sporting events in the country from June 1 if league authorities will guarantee security for the players and staff. The Premier League is planning a restart of the season on June 12.
