    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Bird in the hand though comes into it. Guaranteed 'semi final' play off or risk falling out of top 6. Yes - might catch top one (they will assume we are out of reach) but just as easily may drop out of it, Guaranteed 2 leg play off may mean TV money (other route equals additional costs). I...

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Can't see how they can be bullied - nobody can afford to 'bribe' them, and playing the games is going to cost a shed load of cash. As for Bristol Rovers saying they want to carry on to help prepare for next season - believe it when I see it - they can't afford to chuck money away on playing...

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    If it's a straightforward majority vote, that'll be it - PPG it is (or I'll eat a mad hatters hat)

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Add Wycombe to PPG - guarantees them a play off spot.

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    where did you read that Evo? Edit: just read that statement. If it's a straightforward majority vote , I would think most of existing top 6 (after PPG adjustment) would do PPG (as could backfire on them playing games, then slipping out). The middle table and just above relegation will vote...

    Not using Cash since lockdown

    Ironically, my son has just handed me £50 cash, as he wants to use my credit card to buy software :joyful:

    Not using Cash since lockdown

    My grandmother was mortified when her son (my uncle) told me she had a load of cash stuffed into the back of her armchair!

    Not using Cash since lockdown

    Without getting into 'stereotype' issues, do travellers only work with cash? Apologies if I'm completely wrong.

    Not using Cash since lockdown

    It is weird, but on a matchday (particularly away jaunts) I find it reassuring having some cash on me, even though I can carry out most of the transactions on my card (perhaps it's because there is no record of actual cash transactions for my wife to see - i only had 2 pints dear!)

    Not using Cash since lockdown

    Don't know if anybody has found it the same - and apologies for anybody struggling financially - but I have become increasingly aware that I am not using cash since the lockdown started, and have tried to examine why. In my case it has mainly been down to days at the footie. parking tickets in...

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    I take it that it's your pub? If so, can you say which one? - so we can visit post pub lockdown!

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Pompey fan - posts on 'A love Supreme' a lot - the Mackems site (I do the same at times, and have been interested in their current viewpoint). Pompey have a pretty messy forum in comparison to us/Sunderland.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Rugby's top players are lauded at international level - even I enjoy the World Cup, Six nations stuff, but club level rugby doesn't interest people to the same level. Players' salaries are disproportionate to club level interest - hence why I suspect Wasps have slowly ditched the Galactico...
