Hamrun Spartans will be crowned champions if Premier League halted

Apr 7 2021

Since the Health Authorities have not yet lifted the ban on sports, the 2020-21 Premier League will be facing the possibility of being halted for a second season. Even though the restrictions were hoped to be lifted by April 11th to allow sport to be practice at the elite level, restrictions on sports will remain in place and may be lifted after April 26th depending on the situation.

The decision on whether the league will be halted will be confirmed on Friday. Should it be halted, Hamrun Spartans will automatically be declared Premier League champions. The reaction to the news that sports ban will not be lifted also prompted South End Core to post on Facebook stating ‘R.I.P Malta Sport.’
