It’s actually turned down a bit when the players come out so the Clayton End volume is heard.
Quieter behind Clayton End or in Redz Bar before game.

Would you please if you don't mind have the majority counting from I may have missed something, no majority on these pages and certainly not around where I sit at games with most including youngsters with fingers pointing at speakers shaking their heads.

Majority from personal experience of controlling it and more people liking it than not.
Appreciate where you are coming from RE; having a conversation, like I’ve said it is quieter either behind the Clayton end if you stand on terrace or in the reds bar before a game.
It may seem louder when the ground isn’t as full depending on what time you take up your position.

We haven’t had a TV for 30 years but even I can understand why broadcasters would welcome VAR.

Same rationale as to why in Korea they added canned crowd noise to a televised ‘ghost game’.

An ad break during a live football game..... no.
A lot of the problem is people don’t move with the times.

Televised fan noise is what the people watching must want.
When Amazon showed the Prem fixtures over Christmas - people loved having the feature to be able to turn off the commentators.
Why didn’t they just mute the TV??
Because they still wanted the fan noise...

thats another reason you go and get season tickets pre season as well. its part of the so called match experience. i for one keep away from anyplace where they have loud music as i just give up trying to talk to people and end up in my own little bubble. some seem able to manage conversations and music at the same time but i,m afraid i cannot and have never been able to do so.

Well they have decided that promotion and relegation stand in all EFL leagues playoffs to get played if possible if not will decide who goes up somehow 51% needed in vote wether to play on or finish, league 1 looking likely to finish with Bolton, Southend and Tranmere relegated in league 2 Stevenage now relegated.

Ladies and Gents;

The EFL are not "useless" they are making sound decisions based as close as they can to the current regulations.

Clubs have 3 days to make written submissions on the Board proposals; sensible:)

Then under new emergency regulations voted for in March they will call an EGM to adopt these proposals.

Electronic EGM 5 days later

Follow the rules and regs which have been democratically voted on leaves minimal chance of lawyers getting involved

There hasn't yet been a formal or an informal vote as yet in L1, so no idea where the 12 clubs comment comes from.

The EFL have put forward a proposal where by clubs can formally comment to the Board until 5pm next Tuesday.
Then an EGM will be called and should 51% vote in favour of this proposal the normal season will need, positions decided on PPG and play's off will then take place.

It was in the past but in the case of league 2 finishing their season they decided to end with PPG promotion and no relegation so Stevenage thought they were safe. Following the meeting the other day the EFL now wants votes on various things, 20man squads with 8 homegrown players aged 21 plus, ending season's on PPG promotion and relegation and playoffs if possible this includes league 2. So now Stevenage could be relegated but just to confuse you even more Macclesfield could have more points deducted thus they go down. Surely this isn't in any rule book who would be a club CEO.

There has been "talk" of getting external monies, from say Govt but Football PLC ( in the main ) has overspent so there are concerns such move might not look to well with the general public.

There has been no vote, actual/ informal or canvassing opinion in L1; just a 3 hour video meeting in which it was obvious there was lots of different opinions.

I have it from an excellent source that L2 all agreed to stop the regular season and try and go for the play-offs. They have asked for no relegation but the EFL Board won't agree to this. L2 is much easier at the top as they've all played the same games.

Well not just football but all businesses have if needed took advantage of the government,s furloughing scheme without which a awful lot of clubs would have gone to the wall maybe even Stanley, this is going to end at some point so unless there is a willingness amongst clubs rather than self interest over promotion or relegation to come up with something financial then football will be a different place than when last played. Outside of the premiership without crowds or some other ingenious way of income sources looking at season starting is a non starter no need for meetings it's straightforward.

no matter what the EFL clubs vote for regarding the promotion or relegation they cannot do much if the premier league do not relegate clubs or the national league do not promote any. can see something of a farce in the brian rix catogary once the vote takes place. below the national league structure the clubs weeks ago ended their seasons with no promotion or relegation.

Well there lies the problem too many cooks spoil the broth springs to mind longer the farce goes on it doesn't bode well. 11 weeks is it now since the Tranmere game forgot already the habit shame new habits being formed and I won't be on my own football needed to act faster and together had words with loads of my football friends and the general consensus among them was football was a mess and they certainly were not particularly bothered about premiership football on the telly free or not, yet again to me showing how out of touch government and football authorities are from the real world.

Re: Coronovirus
 
It will be interesting to see if football has made its mind up about this season how they are going to deal with the change in furloughing staff that comes along end of October I think when it will start to be phased out in my opinion these and other issues are far more important than wether Coventry are promoted or Peterborough wanting the season finished. Without crowds hopefully this might change but if not the league's won't be the same so promotion and relegation are irrelevant until we know what landscape lies ahead.

That's what club's think BUT one club has asked the EFL to ask IF we can return to training; ( as and when required) with players still on furlough; on the basis there is no income.

Highly unlikely Govt. will say "yes" but at least the question will have been asked

He also echoes what I,ve been saying they are concentrating on the wrong thing ending this season instead of the future with or without crowds and were the income is coming from. One of his ideas is for players to take short term paycuts which was frowned on by the PFA he,s right though reduced costs now could be the difference between a job in the future.

I doubt it's that straightforward. The training that is referred to in the guidance is intended to be a course or similar that would enable an employee to perform their duties better, once furloughing has ended. Training for footballers is a normal part of their job and is extremely unlikely to be covered by that definition, hence the question that Mr T refers to.

That is why they should be concentrating their efforts on next season not on concluding this one. It isn't negativity when if you run a business and your in financial trouble you search your head and look for ways of salvaging what you have. Don't forget it's not just players it's management teams, physio,s kit men whatever will need looking at when the furloughing scheme finishes which is the only financial aid they have had the money from the football authorities is just an advance payment and many clubs will have probably already spent it.

I always thought that “Cummings and Goings” was a reference to that part of the football year when players went on the “Merry Go Round” of transfers and signing new contracts! :eek:Seems it is now something to do with politics.:130: I just thank God that Boris and his mate Dominic aren’t football referees in League Two!:help:

Well as this morning the majority of the country including the people who for health reasons were shielding emerge slowly using comman sense from the grip of lockdown and slowly breaths a collective sigh of relief what is happening at league 1 the last to have any clear directive, it's riddled with arguments about self interest and pointless arguments about what's fair, they need to get a grip what's been fair about the last 10 weeks I thought it was just Premiership clubs were self centered but unfortunately some in league 1 have been seen in the same selfish couldn't care about others attitude. June 8th next vote if there hoping for a fair outcome they are in cuckoo land and for once you can't lay that at the EFL,s door.

It's all 72 EFL clubs voting on the 8th not just League One.
It isn't a vote to decide on League One its to agree the framework laid out on 21 May.

Exactly so league 1 will still be no nearer should have sorted their own backyard out like most others did but threats of legal action we were in form, you were fading away wouldn't have got over the line these are just some comments I,ve seen the position of the table has it ground to a halt didn't lie big ego,s in a playground comes to mind.

No I couldn't imagine being a Peterborough fan their chairman after a bit of ranting changed his mind before showing himself up any further and no I don't think most Peterborough fans will give a s***.

Let’s just disagree then.
To say fans of the club don’t give a ........... Is bemusing.

Re: Coronovirus
 
Wycombe announce £1,000,000 loss up to May due to present circumstances and expect to lose £350,000 a month on going, as nobody can predict when crowds are back some say maybe September or next year no one knows so losses by then would be touching £2,500,000. If made to play any scenario behind closed doors this loss would increase. As furloughing eases down they will continue to pay staff but have advised them all it would be wise to look for alternative employment meaning come October without change there isn't the money to pay them. But they running the club will do everything in their power to keep the club going to complete when some normality returns this to me keeping your clubs going is what us bemused fans really want to hear.

know there is not another way, but clubs who vote will vote for their own interest and not the whole game. just like we do in any votes we have made in our lifetime.

lots of implications which is why it hasn’t yet been sorted. rules have to be added to allow changes. some fair proposals put forward but no point on having 10 different ideas and voting on them, be hard to get a majority.

lots happening behind the scenes. nothing to make public as far too much speculation and to be honest some of that has been absolutely absurd.

it’s human nature to worry about yourself first.

There should be at least one rule no playing professional football behind closed doors unless you're income is guaranteed by another scource ie:- fantastic TV revenue, government subsidies etc, other than that stay in hibernation untill crowds allowed back 100% not in dribs and drabs has as been suggested.

But, compared with the so-called judicial system, a day’s delay makes the EFL look like a dynamic decision-making body.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan...shire-52881290

I always thought the maxim was “justice delayed is justice denied”.
Why should a trial be scheduled so it doesn’t “clash with the football season”?

That's disgraceful, it's gone on long enough & should be dealt with as soon as the courts are open again

I just don’t understand the rationale. Can anyone now claim their trial should be postponed because it ‘may’ interfere with their job? Weird decision.

in well over 100 years of football it will not be the first time it has happened. i,ve witnessed more than a push between managers even in amateur football. think a lot is due to bartons baggage he carries around with him. bit of luck he,ll eventually end up at stevenage as he would not be welcome at stanley for me.

Andy - this is where people have to be careful when wording any rule amendment. You neglect to consider compulsory closures where there has been violence and more importantly racism at grounds. This week's events bring that into focus. So please don't just blandly say no football behind closed doors.

Believe it or not, with the back log of Court matters that date looks entirely reasonable when I look at some of the civil matters on my desk.
It shouldn't go unnoticed either that this was totally with the agreement of the victim.

It wasn't a push my friend. It was a head butt causing dental damage and done in full view of young ball boys.
Added to this is his criminal record.

Stand corrected it was a comment aimed at the general as I would assume most onlookers agree fiasco painted by the efl on the voting surrounding how to end this season fairly. That last word fairly seems to be the sticking point because to me looking from the outside agree with not all the facts apart from common sense that the efl rather than being in charge have passed the buck back to the clubs who obviously act in their own interests, thus making any voting irrelevant. Cheltenham of league 2 for instance they could be made to play in that divisions play offs stating they can,t afford to. The bigger picture at the expense of repeating myself is next season to me insisting no start without crowds or something else to replace the income. Being forced to play behind closed doors irrelevant of rule books which went out the window I' n March will lead to sadly job losses staff and players and clubs failing let's hope Tuesday's vote if it goes ahead gets the right result end of season.

Hope all is ok with him and that he.ll be back on there in full flow very soon

Personally I think it's a good thing he's using twitter less. Look after your own instead of taking on the mantle of spokesperson for the less well off.
Why not post here where only Accy fans to be concerned about.
