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

    They are not one win away though, are they? They'll need one more win than all their rivals over 9 matches. That means they'll maybe have to win SIX or SEVEN. If they settle for play offs they have to win TWO and draw/lose ONE to be promoted.

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

    Oxford Fleetwood, Pompey would be crazy to vote to play on. Under PPG they have play offs guaranteed and 2/3 wins means promotion. If they play on they have to play 9 games to even qualify for play offs and could drop out of the running.

    I trust teachers and their unions to know more about, care more about and be having sleepless nights about the welfare of children, their families and their communities than the dishonest shower of sh!t that constitute the Johnson government.

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

    Just stepping back from this a bit, fans need to understand that sport always produces winners and losers. Without winners and losers it ceases to be sport. Everyone, if they are capable of putting aside club loyalty, know the outcome should be fair. We know that luck plays a part too, but...

    22 Premier League next season

    Accept no 'solution' which fails to answer the simple question Why can't the season be completed? Unless the world ends football will resume one day so simply pick up where we hit pause. We will never 'run out of time'. No other solution is acceptable to me.

    Hit the PAUSE button on the season and restart it once the worst is passed. Only take 5 weeks in May, June, July or August. Then give players 2-3 weeks off and start the next season. Why are we so obsessed with calendars. Simple and no arguments or legal challenges. Same for schools...
