Hello and welcome to the Sky Sports Football podcast. Since the moment football was suspended,

there's been speculation, debate and discussion about when and how it could return. There's also

been lots of suggestions, lots of ideas and even cases made for the 2019-20

season to be written off completely. But it's only now that we're starting to get a clear

picture of what a football restart may look like and the coming days will be key. I'm Peter

Smith, the Sky Sports Football Features Editor and joining me on this podcast today with updates on the

latest developments are two Sky Sports News reporters.

First up, Brian Swanson.

Brian, how are you?

I'm good thanks, Pete, just getting used to the new normal of working at home.

Absolutely.

It's all a bit strange, isn't it?

All a bit different.

And we've also got Carve Solicor on the line.

Carvee, how's things?

Yeah, not too bad, not too bad. Just missing football like everyone else, but I'm sure we can all wait until it comes back whenever that is.

Yeah, absolutely. Well, hopefully we'll have some details about that in the next 25 minutes, 30 minutes or so.

Because Brian, it feels like this is an important week for Project Restart, as it's been labelled.

We had a meeting on Friday with Premier League clubs, and it feels like the next few days could be quite important as well in terms of what the government

may or may not decide to do with lockdown measures later this week. So you just bring us up to speed,

Brian, with where we are at the moment.

Yeah, this is a significant week for sure for the future of football in this country.
