No they are to busy looking for a rule that states 3 points deducted for freezing your pitch.

Portsmouth fan on Twitter thinks they should get the three points, we don't have under pitch heating, or we are scared to play them??

Bristol City asked for their game to be postponed tomorrow at Brentford due to players showing symptoms, can't get testing done as site shut for New year's Day, that will have minds at the EFL spinning.

Since this pandemic began the football authorities have been slow to react on a lot of things bailouts, etc, can't be easy but you should learn from errors, fans back in stadiums is as far away now as it was in March no income, so forward planning is a must an extension is a must or it will all end in tears. Clubs are businesses they need income and leadership something the EFL seems incapable of.

Pompey always get games frozen off, even in the premier league when their chairman had given a 100% guarantee I game was on, called it off a few hours before as the covers and heaters they rented didn't thaw the middle of the pitch and it wasn't apparent until they removed the covers.

And all linked arms before kickoff as a show against all forms of discrimination.

after reading all these posts i have come to a conclusion. pro football must be the most unhealthy job of work in the country at the moment. being young, fit and healthy seems the best way to contract this virus.

To me now even if mandatory testing was brought in at all elite levels it's pretty obvious this season isn't going to finish on time if the EFL won't make a decision maybe the clubs should get together and advise some course of action.
