WARRINGTON TOWN boss Paul Carden admits he can no longer see the season being played to completion.

HOPES HANGING BY JUST A WIRE

With more than three quarters of the country plunged into the strictest Tier 4, the Trident Leagues are currently paused.

A mid-January restart has been seen as the best chance to complete the fixtures in full and with that now a long-shot, Carden, whose Wire side are aiming to push for promotion, worries for clubs.

“There’s obviously a lot of concern and worry with regards to the virus, which is natural because it is affecting people’s lives,” Carden told The NLP. “The way our clubs at our level – and most levels – are reliant on the revenue from fans and social clubs, bar areas and snack bars, I just don’t see it happening. If there are no fans in grounds then there is no football because it can’t be funded.
