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

    My problem with it is that it would be an absolute lottery with about as much connection to the season so far as ppg. In fact ppg would have a closer connection. Previous form would be out of the window. Clubs with nothing to play for would be just trying to avoid injury. Players who are out of...

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

    Repeating myself but 1. Given the concerns about legal challenge Tranmere's scheme, the motivation behind which is pretty obvious, fails because it is both complex and has assumptions (3 years). But... 2. The EFL want a system that is absolutely straight forward, to avoid any doubt and hence...

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

    I believe that no decision means the season gets finished. It needs a rule change to get null and void

    Transfer rumours (isn't it nice to talk about football!)

    That he has stayed given our circumstances tells me he is on quite a good wedge for a L1 manager

    Sounds like Tranmere are conceding the principle of PPG, so are trying to find a variant that keeps them in the League. Regardless of whether it is bonkers or not, this could be good news

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

    I thought that for a while, but it requires a vote and it is not an option that is being voted on. The default, "what happens if nothing is decided" option is to play on. If the vote fails, that is what we do. If some clubs really hate playing on they have to persuade the EFL to do another...

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

    I am puzzled how the clubs with absolutely nothing to play for will behave were the season be played out. Like say Shrewsbury - who we would play first up I believe. How motivated? What strength side? Will they give a f**k? Or even be resentful at having to play 9 games they don't want. You...

    No you probably don't. The quicker the decision, the more likely it is to Posh's way

    Makes no valuation of the quality of the opponents still to play - some have to play fewer top clubs than others

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

    For those slagging off the EFL and Rick Parry. Bear in mind he is not an all powerful President, but the chairman of a committee of 70 odd all of whom have member's rights. The EFL clearly have a favoured solution - PPG. By restricting choice and delaying the decision it makes it more, not...

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

    On the other hand... The 3 "deluded" are pitching to avoid the play offs by coming 2nd = 9 Lincoln have made aggressive noises = 10 Southend want null and void - therefore PPG is their least favourite of the two choices =11 12/11 = too close to call

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

    the vote is probably going to be very close, all hose o ..but there is no "only Cov go up" option. Because Rotherham are barely ahead of the chasing pack it is either Cov & Roth & PPG or Complete the season. How many points we are ahead of the other matters for nothing, only the gap Rotherham...

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

    Because if deadlock is still the case when the absolute absolute deadline is reached, doesn't null and void then apply, as the female Pallios pointed out yesterday? To avoid null and void, the League has to decide something, it can't do nothing.

    Maybe that is why Parry is being patient.

    Parry is a chairman, not a President. His ability to command is limited.
