Premier League fans have reacted in their masses to news that football will not be suspended as England enters a four-week lockdown.
As reported by the BBC, England will be locked-down until December 2nd, with businesses classed as non-essential being forced to close their doors and Britons being encouraged to remain at home where possible.
However, as mentioned in the same report from the BBC, ‘elite’ sport will not face suspension, meaning the Premier League will be allowed to continue as normal through the lockdown period.
