Seems pretty rushed for a country that is normally so measured and meticulous with its planning. Some European leagues have already been called such as The Netherlands and France, Scotland isn’t far away.

Coronavirus: No professional sport in England until 1 June at earliest
There will be no competitive sport until at least 1 June
No professional sport, even behind closed doors, will be staged in England until 1 June at the earliest, the UK government has announced.
The government has published a 50-page guidance document detailing how England will begin to ease lockdown measures.
Step two of that plan - which will not be allowed to start before 1 June - includes "permitting cultural and sporting events to take place behind closed doors for broadcast, while avoiding the risk of large-scale social contact".
The document states that reopening venues that attract large crowds, such as sports grounds, "may only be fully possible significantly later depending on the reduction in numbers of infections".
Premier League clubs are meeting on Monday to continue discussions on Project Restart.
All models are wrong. Some of them are useful.

The title and Champions League races in Spain look like they're going right to the wire.
Also, over in Italy, the Atalanta team Betterread has mentioned deserves your love and affection. They play an attacking style in a smaller city (Brescia) that got hit brutally hard by COVID-19.
