And, despite it being a somewhat convoluted formula, the positions of the teams would ‘most probably’ remain exactly as they are. Only Lincoln and Peterborough might be expected to improve by one or two positions, but that would appear to have no impact on promotion or relegation.

So why not just end the agonising now over this season and concentrate on how to manage the play-offs?

EFL have to wait and see if Prem decide on relegation or not.
Holding up a vote at the moment as EFL Clubs can’t vote due to know on effect.

Premiership protocol to return to training government guidelines no tackling disenfected pitches and only groups of five no traveling together, it's a farce when will they realise footballers are no different to any other worker stop the sham and return when deemed safe are Jo public missing it that much to risk people's health I for one am not.

Football is a business.
Many businesses are returning to work.
Many businesses are implementing restrictions whilst working.

Exactly how they are doing at the moment Andy by returning to training.
In a few weeks time the small steps may turn into slightly bigger steps.

There isn’t going to be a point where one day everything will be back to normal.
It will take these small steps to get there. To see if it can work.

I,m no expert on gardening but pretty sure if you disinfect grass it won't do it much good. Are football clubs going to do what businesses are doing and giving players a choice on health concerns such as asthma etc, or if your from a ethnic background which is a concern to train or not.

Football is a business but unlike golf clubs fishing tennis etc who are all in it together why are the government pushing the premiership into training bypassing Stanley and the rest of football right down the pryamid to return to training. Because they haven't got a minutes thought about the lesser leagues just about income from the premiership I,m ok with that if they bale everybody out but it's plain to see to me the government as well as top flight football don't give a hoot about Stanley and the rest and certainly don't care about the health of the premiership,s squads.

There will be Premiership players that refuse to play.
Danny Rose I know will say no.
Sheffield United have given all their players the option and will not criticise any of them if they say no - and they've a chance of Champions League.

All the recent points on here are well made. I understand what you are saying about some players refusing to play. However, even if they are supported by their clubs, the PFA and the Premiership overall I doubt whether the majority of fans at their club will support their decision if they refuse to play. Just my opinion....I guess we will see what happens....

Twenty Eight · 13-05-2020, 11:59

I think you will be refreshingly surprised mate.
Supporters in the main understand where we are ......
