# Liverpool: Fans love James Pearce’s tweet about PL restart

**It’s the news all Liverpool fans have been waiting for – it has been [confirmed](https://news.sky.com/story/coronavirus-premier-league-to-return-on-17-june-after-three-month-lay-off-11996309) that the Premier League will soon resume.**

The news was confirmed on Thursday afternoon, with the Premier League announcing that the top flight will restart on June 17th. The Bundesliga had already started in the middle of May, and the success of the resumption in Germany – as of yet, there have been no new cases after three matchdays – has obviously given the English football authorities the belief that the sport can be resumed on these shores.

Liverpool reporter James Pearce [shared the news](https://twitter.com/JamesPearceLFC/status/1266030081752915968) on his Twitter account, and he took aim at those who have been continually [asking](https://www.change.org/p/english-premier-league-null-and-void-the-premier-league) for the campaign to be null and voided, whilst also relaying the announcement.

It is fair to say that the Reds supporters love Pearce’s tweet, understandably so given it should allow them to claim the Premier League title as they currently sit [25 points clear](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/table) at the top. Many have taken to the social media platform to share their delight. You can see some of the best comments below.
