12:45 - MEETING OVER! The meeting is reportedly over without any key decision being made, essentially the meeting was pointless other then the salary cap and the news that leagues could fund testing if all sides agree to it! If anything this meeting has made it more confusing

BREAKING: The meeting between League One clubs has concluded without a definitive outcome. Clubs will now meet next week. EFL are a shambles. They should just make a decision.

Every side won’t agree to return though...

12:30 - TESTING UPDATE! The EFL have stated in the last few moments that if the championship,L1 and L2 was to return behind closed doors, the league would pay for all of the testing that every player needs HOWEVER for this to happen every side must agree to a return to action!

Funded by the League' Football Ian Dennis BBC Radio 5 Live senior football reporter In a draft document for a protocol to return to training, the EFL says the testing program will be funded by the League, which will provide all reasonable logistical support to ensure that the program runs...

there will be no decision today. This will drag on.

11:44 - The scheduled vote won’t take place today due to the EFL still waiting for the Premier League to finalise their relegation plan should the Prem season not finish as planned! However, the EFL could announce their plan on how to end the season in each league today!

Understand the estimated figure for COVID-19 testing per club will be around £140,000. That is a huge amount for most clubs, especially with very limited income. Sure, some clubs in L1 and L2 can afford it, but it isn’t fair to force others to when they can’t.

will require 75% vote to pass it. Can’t see any scenarios being agreed by 75%. Expect no decision today.

10:15 - KNOCK ON EFFECT! Another thing to take into consideration is the 2020/2021 season! The start date is unlikely to be August as scheduled and it remains to be seen whether any of the cup competitions are postponed for that season!

10:08 - Potential PlayOffs! The EFL have confirmed that even if the L1 and L2 season is decided via PPG or weighted PPG, they still want to do the play offs in each league to decide the final promotion spot! Games would be behind closed doors and potentially at neutral grounds!

Big issue is player contracts end of June. If the season isn’t completed by then (which it won’t be) then they will have to agree on final league standings just top 2 (automatic) to be promoted and no relegations. It’s unprecedented times and the only solution. On Football Focus various club...

I think we all know deep down that we aren’t going to see anymore football this season. In 3 weeks the situation will be worse than now. This gives the FA, PL and EFL to agree the contingency plan for the season ending.

If they didn’t promote us they are denying us the chance to get into the premiership in 20/21. Sisu would need to bring their A game.

My real worry is they are actually saying only the top 2 from from the Champ would go up. Enlarge the PL for a season and the Football League stays as it is. So no promotions from L1 and L2 etc.

My worry is they only make this a deal between the PL and Champ. However, there would be uproar down the football pyramid if it isn’t replicated.

Also there is talk the league cup will be cancelled next season to accommodate larger leagues

They are looking 5 teams to be relegated from the 20/21 season. This would hopefully be replicated down the leagues otherwise it’s unfair on L1 and L2 .So this season nobody gets relegated. Buderlsliga are also considering this.

In the press across various sites. 22 team premier league next season. There’s no way any football will recommence in 3 weeks as the peak is coming in May/June. Three potential scenarios If the season is not completed then these are some of the possible scenarios: Give the title to Liverpool...

As the league has completed 75% of matches Liverpool will still be crowned champions, United will again be in the europa league next season unless City’s ban applies. That’s on the FA’s website. From another tweet. Right...let’s all check the FA site then
