Part 6/7:
In addition to concussion substitutes, the Premier League meeting highlighted other pressing discussions, particularly concerning the ongoing implications of the COVID-19 pandemic. The league deliberated on potential curtailments of the season in light of the current landscape, ensuring that they remain agile and ready to address any emerging challenges.
Moreover, the meeting also addressed enhanced COVID protocols that had been implemented retrospectively earlier in the week. These protocols had already been introduced across clubs but required official approval to be incorporated into the Premier League rulebook, solidifying the league’s commitment to maintaining a safe environment for players, staff, and fans alike.
