Newcastle boss Steve Bruce calls for games every day when Premier League resumes after coronavirus crisis to ensure season gets finished

Newcastle manager Steve Bruce has called for a 'Festival of Football' with games every day to help get the season completed when it is safe to play again following the coronavirus pandemic.

Professional football in England will not resume until April 30 at the earliest - but with the country currently in lockdown, that appears a very optimistic target date.

On Thursday, the Football Association announced results for the 2019-20 campaign will be expunged for non-league divisions below the National League and National League North and South.

The ruling also covers women's football below the Women's Super League and Championship, with no promotion and relegation, while grassroots football has also been brought to a close.
