    EFL Decision on Coventry’s future expected today

    It's a very difficult decision SBD and I get what you are saying, but I'll stick with what I said. I don't think clubs would attempt to sue anyone under the circumstances. It would look bad and they would be given short shrift in the courts. A bit like a force majeur situation. The governing...

    EFL Decision on Coventry’s future expected today

    SkyBlue Dreamer I see what your are saying but I don't agree I'm afraid. The TV rights and conincidence with all other major sports televised would have serious consequences. Sky will not want a whole season cancelled or prolonged while teams go off playing friendlies. It's unworkable. And I...

    EFL Decision on Coventry’s future expected today

    I think crucially it will depend on how long the 'lock down' needs to continue. Personally I think there is another 2 months of that alone. Then there are players match fitness, and will require time. So at the earliest mid-to-late June before any games BCD could conceivably take place. That...

    Wycombe are 3 points behind Rotherham with a game in hand?

    EFL Decision on Coventry’s future expected today

    If we can get back and play the season out in a time frame that we can simply run on into the next season with say a weeks break to organise then it should be preferable to all. No pre season would be needed. However I do think it's clutchng at straws. The season should be ended now, award the...

    Coronavirus Isolation - TV Shows to Binge

    Thought I would add to the list but just to say OZARK is the best latest series out at the moment without doubt. So these are not in any order but all are exceptional in their own genre: OZARK BOARDWALK EMPIRE BREAKING BAD DEXTER GOLIATH BILLIONS SAPRANOS NARCOS GAME OF THRONES VIKINGS BETTER...

    Potentially does not bode well

    I see no sensible reason to 'void' a season. But I'm also concerned that should the delay go beyond June then the season could be decided by a panel. I trust under such a scenario City would inevitably be promoted. But what if you are Norwich and told you will be relegated?

    Who’s at work/Not at work?

    As an asthmatic you must self isolate as you are deemed 'at risk'. So you should not be going to work? The company can not lay you off for this. They can pay you or they can put you on furlough leave and apply for 80% of your wages under the job retention scheme.

    Who’s at work/Not at work?

    Back to the posters question... I operate a tour company with 95% clients in the USA. (Golf tours by way of a cruise around the Caribbean) I have shut down completely. Zero bookings, lots of cancelled bookings and refunds, zero income stream. Compounding that I can't fly to the USA. The cruise...

    Who’s at work/Not at work?

    As I understand this: The 'job retention scheme' allows for your employer to claim the 80% of your gross salary from the government to pay you. They are not obliged to make up the 20% difference. This is an easy application submitted online. Payroll companies can do this for them. ALL employees...

    Like I said "up to a point"

    Richard Keys again ,

    My honest opinion is the season should be concluded at the earliest opportunity. That being the case, there must be a time limit for that to happen obviously as the start of a new season could clash. Extending one season and delaying the start of the new season is possible up to a point. My...

    The importance of momentum

    There will be no tired legs as we had seem recently from Kelly and one or two others so we will have everyone fit and raring to go. We should hit the ground running. Perhaps a friendly behind closed doors with Birmingam to get ourselves up to speed would be useful?

    TV series that should be repeated but never are.

    Spitting Image. Apparently I read it is making a return this year?

    'Pools Panel' decides leagues?

    So Norwich deserve to stay up? Leeds do not deserve to go up? Not going to happen. A solution will be sought.

    'Pools Panel' decides leagues?

    Throw it into a comuter model sort of thing and get a predictor? Could work. Depends what peope think is fair.

    'Pools Panel' decides leagues?

    We are told this thing will get worse before getting better stretching out for months. There likely will not be any games played behind closed doors as we may even be in a lock down. The start of the following season could be delayed. So again, given it gets worse, whats the best solution to...

    'Pools Panel' decides leagues?

    Irish sky blue you understate our club. My point is that should this situation extend well beyond the possible time to play out the season then what would be the fair thing to do? Promote and relegate as it stands? Hardly think that's fair. Void the whole season and go again as though it never...

    'Pools Panel' decides leagues?

    Not sure if this has been mentioned. If the season can't be finished then would a likely fairer outcome be a pools panel projecting the results? I know pools panels have sat before and decided results of postponed games (home win, away win, draw) Could this be the fairest way to finalise the...

    If the season has finished, your player of the season is...

    How about most improved player? Surely would be Shippers? How about most influential player? Morosi, Kelly, McFazdean? You could make a case for all sorts of reasons. The hardest bit is choosing that one player of the season. It is not easy but a decision must be made. Had McFazdean scored a...
