While coronavirus sweeps across Europe, many football fans are having to experience something they never have before – no football for three weeks in March.
Of course, health topples sport in any case. However, it has meant that communities all across the country are not exactly sure what to do with themselves on the weekend.
Wolves dedicated account, @WolvesFC_Latest tweeted during what would have been the game against West Ham, asking the supporters what they will be doing instead of watching their team play.
How should the season end?
Totally void the entire season
Finish with the current table
Try and complete it in the summer
The replies were rather unimaginative, suggesting that fans haven’t quite come to grips with this yet, as it seems many are trying to fill a hole of something that isn’t there.
Most responses were either about playing fifa, or football manager, or about just plain being sad due to there being no games.
Here are some of the replies below…

Many Wolves fans will be hoping that they can get the show on the road at some point later in the year, with fans crossing their fingers that all of their endeavour this year has not gone to waste.
With the team sixth in the Premier League and a game away from the last eight of the Europa League, many fans won’t be able to believe that this is the season that has to come to a halt.
