A leading police commissioner has told the Premier League that it is 'inconceivable' that football fans will not turn up outside stadiums when the season resumes.
Sportsmail revealed on Tuesday that plans to complete the campaign at neutral venues as part of Project Restart are set to be scrapped after the government pledged to look again at allowing clubs to play at their own stadiums.
But top-flight officials have now been warned that clubs to playing on home soil will be 'fraught with hazards' and that supporters will arrive 'in large numbers' despite coronavirus lockdown measures and social distancing still being in place.
