FILE – In this Saturday, July 4, 2020 file photo, empty stands are seen as Manchester United’s Paul Pogba (6) shoots a free kick during their English Premier League soccer match against Bournemouth at Old Trafford stadium in Manchester, England. Much to the Premier League’s dismay, the new season will start on Saturday, Sept. 12 just as the last one finished only 48 days earlier — in empty stadiums. The world’s richest football league on Friday intensified its lobbying of the government to allow supporters back into games, even as England grapples with a sharp spike in coronavirus cases.
