You said they did ...... i say they didn't.
You said the clubs in the play off positions had been tested.
I cannot find that statement anywhere.
All it says is 4 clubs

So, according to sky sports news EFL clubs have voted to decide a curtailed season based on unweighted points per game with promotions & relegations to happen & play-offs will include no more than 4 teams.
But then it says League 1 & 2 clubs are now to hold their own meetings to decide on whether they want to end the season on that basis - in essence, we're not much nearer to knowing what's going to happen then

This morning's meeting was to vote in the required regulations to allow each division to make it's own mind up. Without a regulation in place a formal vote could not legally take place.

L2 are meeting as I type this; L1 meet at 3pm.

Yes it's been a long drawn out process but some clubs wanted to have the moment "in the spot light"

15 have informally indicated their intention to end the season.
It's over as far as I'm concerned but cant imagine being a fan of Wycombe or Peterborough.
Highs and lows I guess.

Rules are rules Cashy.
No one ever could predict where we've ended up as a Country or as a sport.
Only the clubs with vested interests in League One to blame for the drawn out affair at division level.
So when will the new season start ? Hahaha ! The next debate.

For me the new season shouldn't start until crowds allowed back but if Premiership decided to start behind closed doors the EFL will probably jump on board without thinking.

My forecast is 26 September 2020.

If the lockdown rules remain the same - behind closed doors.

By then however I think there's a chance of supporters being allowed to attend.

Leagues 1 and 2 to finish season hurrah reached the decision most of us predicted on the day it was announced football was suspended it hasn't taken long let's see what they decide for next season.

Congratulations to Coventry on being crowned champions deserved as best side good luck to Rotherham and who ever goes up with them via playoffs, Bolton, Southend never a doubt about going down you were poor Tranmere might feel hard done by never a fair way but the final table as season was cut short was the best solution.
