However, these placeholders were primarily for teams which reached the Carabao Cup final and/or the FA Cup final.
The Premier League schedule can just about handle the games that have been postponed... so far.
But the league is on the brink of a fixture crisis, and the failure to entertaining agreeing curtailment / abandonment options may come back and bite them hard.
However, these placeholders were primarily for teams which reached the Carabao Cup final and/or the FA Cup final.
Looking at you, Man City, Man United and Tottenham.
If at least one of those clubs remains in the FA Cup through to Round 5, the game can only be played on March 2.
But it could get even more complicated.
If Spurs go far in the UEL and to the FA Cup final, they will have nowhere to play TWO matches before the season deadline of May 23.
If the EFL semi cannot go ahead next week they also have nowhere to move games.
It's such a massive problem now because every club has their own vested interests again.
This should have been agreed in August with all teams on zero points.
There is now the realistic prospect of being unable to play all 380 Premier League games by May 23, and it only looks like getting worse.
Even if UEFA allowed games through to May 30, that would still discount any club which reached a European final.
Sunday > Tuesday > Thursday > Sunday
And Spurs (and others) might have to do that in both April and May to get the games in.
But we may see more games off yet.
There is no issue rearranging a game between clubs not in Europe, such as Aston Villa v Newcastle.
