Just cannot see Liverpool getting the title and then the rest of the leagues just tossed aside.We aren’t in the top league. Have a look down to our level. Someone more points clear than us getting done over.

Maybe I'm wrong, but voiding the season just seems a ridiculous notion and we don't have to do what the Dutch have done, or any other league have done either for that matter.
What about the rest of Europe?
I am sure we will be confirmed as champions if the season cannot be finished.
Not argument to be had really is there.
In the Dutch league the top two are separated by goal difference only.
Bundesliga reckon they are back May 9th. Just from a PR point of view that puts pressure on the league. They like to constantly declare its the greatest league in the world so won't want to see the Germans finish the season and not do the same.What about the rest of Europe?

If and when the PL declare they are definitely restarting the season I would expect that to filter down. The question then becomes how far does it filter down. That will in part come down to things like TV money. There's already indictions that companies will expect money returned if seasons finished early or declared void so it will be a matter of how far down the league you go before the amount potentially needing to be handed back doesn't become the overriding issue.
Indeed but we know how shit the EFL are at having to make a decision on anything of significance. Do everything they can to put it off. Just can't see them doing anything but 'wait and see' until the Prem decide what they're doing.IF IF and when are too massive things here
Wouldn't that be a decision for the government to make rather than the EFL?Not seen it on here but the Sunderland Echo are reporting that the EFL have said that fans won't be allowed into stadiums before 1st October. Make whatever jokes you want about fans and S'land but this is disturbing.
Exclusive: The date when Sunderland fans will be able to return to Stadium of Light
Same.I’m slowly coming to accept we won’t see anymore football but I’m certain that we’ll be promoted.
I’ve said before thank heavens for Liverpool and Leeds no way will the FA scupper either of them. My money is still on points per game average with a decision on whether they relegate or not, whatever they come up with there will be someone unlucky and moaning, it is interesting though if they go ppg Wycombe go from eighth to third and promotion.Same.
Common sense has to prevail
They’d be in the play-offs, not promoted?I’ve said before thank heavens for Liverpool and Leeds no way will the FA scupper either of them.

Guys I keep repeating myself. We will be promoted. I beleive the season will end as is with a PPG to settle final table which does not really change amything. No relegations.
The new season will start when restrictions are sufficiently lifted, most likely September/October.
Unfortunately with us being in League 1 there’s more chance of us getting screwed over.
I've thought similar to be honest. I started going in 86 so after the first season its been basically all downhill until Robins turned up. If we get shafted when we finally have a chance to win the league and get back to the championship it would be a huge blow.I don’t think I’ll come back. I said I’d give up, probably won’t be that drastic but I won’t but a season ticket holder. Maybe go to a game here and then. Would be more open to take a free stream. Basically it will break the link and I’ll become a casual fan. What’s the point if they can take it from you. Will just be an excuse to go on the beer with mates on occasion or something to watch when I’m not doing anything.
An ex-collegue of mine from our Dutch office is a Cambuur fan. As they have been fucked over I'll drop him a message and see what he says.
How can you have no relegations...how will that work?
So in a season that could very well be shorter than normal you're going to add in extra games?Leagues would have an extra 3 teams in them for a couple of seasons, then relegate 3 instead of two to bring each season to return the leagues to the normal number.
They could cancel the league cup and Checkatrade for a couple of seasons and have a trimmed down Champions League and Europa League just have straight knock outs like it used to be.So in a season that could very well be shorter than normal you're going to add in extra games?

Same down in here Pompey...local rag (probably owned by the same company) saying the same thing.Not seen it on here but the Sunderland Echo are reporting that the EFL have said that fans won't be allowed into stadiums before 1st October.

League Cup sponsorship alone, ignoring TV rights and gate receipts, is £6m a season.They could cancel the league cup and Checkatrade for a couple of seasons and have a trimmed down Champions League and Europa League just have straight knock outs like it used to be.
I'm sure joy has her court case ready should we not be promoted! New Handbags may be oj hold!
It’s hardly getting the title to shut them up though is it, only 9 games to play 27 wins only 1 loss andI agree with this.
I have always had this niggling feeling that Liverpool will get the title to shut them up while the rest of us paupers get voided.
It’s hardly getting the title to shut them up though is it, only 9 games to play 27 wins only 1 loss and
25 points clear of Man City, it would be an absolute travesty if they Aren’t crowned Champions.
of course we have a convincing case ourselves as to whether we gain promotion/champions etc
But I just don’t understand the amount of people talking about Liverpool like they are somehow
undeserving.
If Liverpool are crowned champions and we aren’t ‘that won’t be Liverpool’s fault.
