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...

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

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...

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

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...

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.

...unless of course they are unable to agree on the alternative. And the way things are, that might (might) happen

...and if they run out of time?

The failure to hold the meeting for a second day is not encouraging imho. Parry and the EFL want PPG. But they need the clubs to endorse it, as they don't have the authority to insist on it. They only need a simple majority, (although I have seen elsewhere that they need a 75% vote). The delay...

6 plus tranmere for starters

Sly dig in there at Ipswich, Posh et al. They did not like effectively being discounted.

Every club has its limit - almost without exception. Accrington's is to be mid table in league 1 as thereafter they can't sustain it financially. Charlton's is a bit like ours - a good Championship position. You can look at most clubs and see roughly where they should be, and in most cases they...

The weird thing is that last season he disrupted a settled midfield. he was good, but did not help make a good team. I remember against Oxford he was all over the place, too much so. The midfield lost shape and coherence. He did not fit into the shape we were playing, this was covered by the...

It is no more illogical than watching your team being thumped most weeks. In the last 10 years in the top flight we had one good season - by that we nearly got to halfway. I was glad we got relegated in the end, after 30+ years I was fed up of it. In 32 years we got into Europe via the League...

You are the numbers guy, check the numbers. Those with parachute payments have £40m those without average £4.5. We will have less. The rinse and repeat will probably be an endless struggle to stay in the Championship.....unless we find a sugar dadfy
