This has turned into an even bigger farce, if the vote is to carry on in LG1 but then say the Championship went PPG in the end, what would happen to the next season start dates? Release of fixtures etc...it’s been handled badly compared to other countries it seems.
The delay isn’t a concern in all honesty. It shows the EFL are not making a rash decision...something which would count against them in any appeal if it was done quickly.I'm starting to think we will be playing on the longer this is drawn out(up to a point of course) don't have the same faith I did the other day, the EFL have faffed around so much.
Oh well wait and see I suppose
Like most things unfortunately in this country. The majority of people from all the political parties and in positions of authority are either self serving, incompetent or both.This has turned into an even bigger farce, if the vote is to carry on in LG1 but then say the Championship went PPG in the end, what would happen to the next season start dates?

That's key for me. Why would sides with nothing to play for want to extend player contracts etc.? They'll just put in reserve/youth players.I am puzzled how the clubs with absolutely nothing to play for will behave were the season be played out. Like say Shrewsbury - who we would play first up I believe. How motivated? What strength side? Will they give a f**k? Or even be resentful at having to play 9 games they don't want. You have a feeling they might roll over, in which it will become a farce, and increasingly so as more teams get added to list of those with nothing to play for. Not even any fans you feel an obligation to to motivate the players.
Least shocking news of the lockdown.Prem want ‘something back’ out of it.
Always had a suspicion this could be their B team moment.Least shocking news of the lockdown.
The Huddersfield owner has said 50 or 60 clubs are in danger of going bust. No matter how strongly you felt about PPG / promotion & relegation would you want to be the one taking action against the EFL which causes the league to collapse?
What????????
Yeah do it Darragh...." its your ball and you are taking it home...." nobody will be able to play then!!
All in this together whilst he's holed up in FloridaThe idiot is also saying he's going to open the ground up.

No football will change, from top to bottom.If this Happens football will die.....
Premier League: 'Many months' before fans can return amid Project Restart, says disease expert
Meanwhile at Tranmere.....
apparently they are being censored by the EFL. My guess there fans out comments with foul language and EFL stopped all comments
I think what he should do is start his own league, Peterborough District then he might stand a chance of winning then he can compete in the County Cup.All in this together whilst he's holed up in Floridaclown. Becoming Trump-like.
So that’s essentially voting tomorrow right?According to the Daily Mail EFL clubs have to notify the EFL of their voting intentions by tomorrow, Tuesday.
It sounds like "bluster" from Darragh, as any Barrister would be able to make a case to him suggesting he pursues this. As they'll pick up some easy cash for representing him at £800 per hour with little prospect of success. However, nice little earner for the legal profession.

Wonder what was removed?
General rule is both sides going into a civil case believe they are onto a winner based on legal advice.It sounds like "bluster" from Darragh, as any Barrister would be able to make a case to him suggesting he pursues this.

You’ve got some cheek to be posting this, whilst in the background your board of directors - in breach of their fiduciary duties - are trying to force through a retrospective rule change (which is prohibited under article 14.5 of the EFL articles of association in any event) which will forcibly relegate Tranmere Rovers, despite there being 10 games left to play, oh, and the EFL are trying to do it by ordinary resolution (51%) rather than by special resolution (>75%) as is required by article 13, and without having given the requisite notice to member clubs in accordance with that same article 13. Shame on you.
An absolute disgrace if you relegate Tranmere.. on good form when the league stopped, had to play clubs above us, better players back from injury.. If you want play off to go up how about play off not to go down ??
@efl I can not believe you have posted this!!! How insensitive, especially when you are trying to force through a retrospective rule change which will relegate @tranmererovers. We had just won 3 away games in a row, have a game in hand and, as in previous seasons, were on our way up and in great form following returns from injury and recruitment during during the January tfr window. I echo everything that @southernswa1 and every other Tranmere Rovers fan has said.
Most legal positions rely on precedent (ie based on what has been judged and accepted before)It sounds like "bluster" from Darragh, as any Barrister would be able to make a case to him suggesting he pursues this.

Lol...they’re getting paranoid there’s a witch-hunt to relegate Tranmere.

Makes a strong case for ppg in my view.

It may well be that COVID is deemed an “Act of God” which usually trumps precedent.
bluster.
Is this a secret ballot If so which clubs will MacAnthony know who sue ?According to the Daily Mail EFL clubs have to notify the EFL of their voting intentions by tomorrow, Tuesday.
got no chance of suing individual clubs.Is this a secret ballot If so which clubs will MacAnthony know who sue ?
Isn't there a rule that you can't start a league season while taking legal action against the EFL? Think that's what they used when Leeds wanted to take them to court.It sounds like "bluster" from Darragh, as any Barrister would be able to make a case to him suggesting he pursues this. As they'll pick up some easy cash for representing him at £800 per hour with little prospect of success. However, nice little earner for the legal profession.
Presumably why he was pushing for votes to be made public.Is this a secret ballot If so which clubs will MacAnthony know who sue ?
