Many thanks for this. I note what you say about the NL - but I seem to recall that no decision has been made on the ultimate outcome of this season. Presumably this could ultimately result in no promotion to the FL.

Over on the piss-ridden pox stained forum, one of their Old Boys has suggested that their season ticket holders should vote in a referendum on how Poxford United should vote on if & how the current season can be finished.
What are you doing looking on there?! Weirdo.

The FA have come out and said that null and void is off the table
So, we win the league, yes?

Unless 'as it stands' is on the poll and that wins.

Tbh, no club should be awarded a championship in these circumstances. An asterisk will have to suffice.

I know it's an obvious Swindon Town fan opinion given League One PPG and the fact that Town are likely to go up but I do think there's something logical about completing a Play-Offs to appease Exeter, Colchester, Northampton (and Portsmouth, Fleetwood and Peterborough).
Not passionately for it but it makes sense.
Season 3 of Sunderland til I Die will be an anti-climax though.

Personally I'd make the bottom 4 teams the neutral venues. Or bottom 6 if they want 6.

Premier League clubs have been warned by the FA that the 2019/20 season must be decided on sporting merit - ruling out the possibility of the season being declared null and void.
Whichever way Premier League clubs vote on how to proceed, the future must include promotion and relegation, clubs were told.
This means that runaway league leaders Liverpool will almost certainly claim their first top tier title in 30 years.

Nah not having that, whatever the circs, if you finish top by virtue of being the best team in the league you deserve the trophy. Im planning my own open top bus parade round the town!

I think it’s a maximum of 8 allowed on a double decker, what with social distancing.
Not even enough room for the team!
