How does the voting go for this, is it majority or 75% and what’s the initial question? For example if 34 of the 47 teams say cancel that’s less than 75% - do we continue playing or what?
Playing on has to be an option. Ultimately footballers are employees. What’s different to them then any office workers or construction workers?I think they will vote on 3 options. Null and Void, PPG and PPG weighted. Playing on will not be an option. The one with the most votes will be the decider.
I’m struggling to keep up with this, I was under the impression null & void was off the table.I think they will vote on 3 options. Null and Void, PPG and PPG weighted. Playing on will not be an option. The one with the most votes will be the decider.
I imagine these will be the options, The EFL will already have their preferred method of ending the season and will try and coerce enough teams into voting that way, Null & Void will be voted down when the EFL tell clubs in this scenario no prize money will be given (about 400k per team in league 1 I think).I think they will vote on 3 options. Null and Void, PPG and PPG weighted. Playing on will not be an option. The one with the most votes will be the decider.
The main argument i suspect will be whether they have playoffs or not and how to go about that. As suggested a 4 or 8 team straight knock out tournament would possibly be fairest all at a neutral venue(s) completed within a week.
A London Ground or 2 would probably be best as none of the teams are London based.
Sorry petal, not prepared to give out any more information at this stage xxSince you have inside info, what time will.the statement be posted of the out come.if the league tommorrow. If it is not that time then you have to admit that you were lying, also you cannot say oh they moved it, because they didnt. SImple. Stop being a twat. I
Oh and thanks in.advance for calling me a nonce/pedo/suckyourmum/stupid/idot/moron/insult
I think the prospect of including playoffs as an option is difficult because there are too many possible variations. Including the top 8 teams for example wouldn't be fair to us or Rotherham. The only way that could work IMO would be to decide the final league positions based on sporting merit (PPG, weighted PPG or whatever) and the 3rd promotion slot could be decided by playoffs between teams in 3rd to 6th in the normal way.
Peterborough have won 7 of their last 10 games and have only just creeped into 6th.Looks like there is a fight on
The majority of clubs have furloughed their staff and players.
Once training re starts they cannot be on the furlough scheme. The clubs cannot afford to pay the employees without income from gate money. Any matches played will be behind closed doors
Unless the EFL fund the clubs or money paid to clubs by the PL then the L1 and 2 matches will not re start
Given BCD games look necessary for the forseeable future, should the 2020/21 EFL season be cancelled too?
Ann LucasDoes anyone know who at CCFC decides which way we vote? Boddy? Fisher? Joy? Julian Gray?
Any legal challenges will be pretty much a waste of time surely as the whole situation falls under the category of "force majeure" - previously known as an "act of God" covering wars, earthquakes and epidemics...most contracts will have a clause covering such eventualities.
has Neville changed his stance that's it's financially impossible for L1 & L2 to restart due to poor finances?Posh chairman and Neville debating restart on sky sports now.
Interesting. Maybe Bolton have been preparing for league two for so long they just want to get on with it.
Yup. He is contradicting himself within a couple of lines.How to complete undermine your own argument on one tweet. PPG is unacceptable, integrity of the competition blah blah blah. As soon as there's mention of PPG giving his team a play off spot he's fine with it!
has Neville changed his stance that's it's financially impossible for L1 & L2 to restart due to poor finances?
Voiding May mean penalties re-imposed so I’d not be surprised - the agenda doesn’t look like any conclusions are going to be decided today
Sun journalist Alan Nixon tweeted this morning that the cost of tests for the rest of the season will total £5m shared between the league. Averages out around £45K per club. Huge ask for the many clubs who are already at their knees financially.
