The Premier League has confirmed that all fixtures have been postponed until 4th April and many West Ham United fans have provided their immediate reaction to the news.
All elite-level sport in the country has been suspended due to the outbreak of the coronavirus, which has been found positive in Premier League figures such as Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta.
Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi also tested positive for COVID-19 (The Independent) and many players and staff have now been placed in isolation to help stop the spreading of the virus.
The Hammers were scheduled to take on Wolverhampton Wanderers at the London Stadium on Sunday.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s side played against Olympiakos in the Europa League on Thursday night, even though the Greek side’s owner tested positive for the virus.
Many Hammers fans have taken to Twitter to provide their reaction to the news, with some delighted that they’ll have an unbeaten run for half a month, while others want the league to be voided.
