Scottish Prime Minister Nicolas Sturgeon said last April that there would be no matches attended by fans for a long time.
The Scottish Professional League invited the 42 clubs participating in the first four degrees of the league (excellent, second, third and fourth) to participate in the vote on the need to cancel the season for the second, third and fourth levels and not the Premier League.
With the season canceled in the second, third and fourth grades of the league, the final arrangement in the schedule of each of these competitions is determined based on the average points obtained by each team in each match. The ups and downs will be determined at a later time, until the new season begins on schedule, and the financially troubled teams will get the necessary funds they need, but that will be at the date set for the end of the current season.

Rangers demanded the dismissal of NAA Doncaster, the association's chief executive, and other officials.
Rangers, the record holder of the Scottish League title, has called for a future investigation and plans to provide evidence of his allegations next week.
Ann Badge, owner of Heart of Midlothian (Hearts), bottom-of-class Premier League participant, joined the debate. Page, of course, does not welcome the end of the season early, as this means her team will drop to the second division.
