Professor Jason Leitch admits the Scottish Premiership is in a "fragile" situation as he hinted the season is under threat.
The shock verdict comes after Neil Doncaster refused to rule out declaring the campaign ‘null and void’ if coronavirus restrictions grind the Scottish game back to a halt.
The SPFL chief executive spoke during an exclusive Q&A with Record Sport as he fronted up the mayhem that’s been caused by Celtic ’s controversial winter trip to Dubai.
Rangers sit 21 points clear at the top of the table and on the verge of claiming a first title in 10 years.
And now, speaking on Sky Sports, Leitch has warned extra caution will be required from all sports.
He said: "Elite professional sport has done well during the pandemic, in the main they've followed the guidance and the rules really well, but it's fragile. The situation we find ourselves in is fragile.
"Professional sport all over the UK has privileges, special privileges that other people don't have.
"They are at work, they are training, they are being paid and they are getting to to do what they love.
"That's not true of all of us so they have to be cautious."
