DM said any club not wanting to resume could forfeit the fixtures - so much for sporting integrity as obviously some sides would still ending playing less games than others if season carries on. Seeing as Posh have a load of games against sides not keen on continuing I'm sure he thinks this...

How do they end up with 3 teams promoted from these various expanded play-off scheme? (without at least 1 team going up automatically)

With the rule change protecting QBs so much I'm sure Rodgers believes he can play into his 40s like Brees and Brady. Seems what teams are looking at is the amount of cap space these QBs take up. Packers maybe thinking can get 2 years out of Rodgers then Love steps up and they release a huge...

You would have thought players out of contract would be wary about extending. possibility about getting injured and harming their chances of finding a new club.

But there's also a point where time starts to work against City if the owners don't have a separate plan for at least land purchase for new stadium. League isn't going to let us keep groundsharing outside the City on the theory Wasps may cave/go bust etc.

so all 3 games at home against sides with average away records and we've lost 1 game at "home" all season.

Tbf Govt only just given go ahead for football in June. Govt haven't given any sector clear, strong guidance let alone to football clubs. Football clubs still don't even know if they can play home and away games yet do they?

No chance really. With "preseason" June 26th being touted as earliest realistic start date.

But Where's the "sporting integrity" if we have to give up our pts advantage in a mini tournament?

Germans have got a significant start on English leagues - probably at least 5 weeks - with roughly same number of games to complete.

Usual off season nonsense. Players getting themselves into trouble. Giants, Bills, Skins, Seahawks latest. PL players specialise in sex scandals, NFL seem to specialize in weapons, domestic abuse and drugs

By his logic then playoffs should go 11 pts down from Posh as well. Gap between us and Posh if we win game in hand 11 pts so 11pts behind Posh are Burton in 12th. He can't argue one thing then deny the other. Tying himself up in knots.

Hell of a reach to claim Toney could score 20-25 goals in A Championship season playing for Peterborough. Threatening fellow clubs with legal action isn't going to go down well.

The list of "ifs and buts" long enough to fill an encyclopedia :) Just posturing.

Watched a fair bit yesterday and certainly levels of intensity etc were down. Can see sides that are forced to play putting out weakened sides (although didn't help us against Bolton).

One of the keys would be how well they use the loan market. Plus with BCD for a chunk of next season likely there will probably be a big rein-in by many Championship clubs on spending this summer (hence the sudden urgency for wage cap discussions for that division over last 2-3 weeks). Might...

absolutely. I saw some terrible City sides/performances when we were in Div 1 but it's still the memories of watching some outstanding results/performances against the likes of Liverpool in the 80s (when they were outstanding) that remain. It's just a fact that knowing Utd/liverpool/Spurs etc...

Hope he's okay. Been on a downward slump for ages. A top player at his best. Sadly bit past that when he played for us.

surely the longer they try to delay more likely season gets ended without playing as no time would be left?

was on his twitter (not from today but there somewhere)
