If ever you wanted to get Joy back to court that would.
If by batter you men, failing, and taking to a higher court lolSISU will “batter” the EFL in court
Although I hope it doesn't happen you can see the thinking behind this from Sky's viewpointSky sports reporting -
Mini tournament could decide who goes up and down etc
If Wycombe beat us they’d move from 8th to 3rd. PPG would be better than this proposal but you can see why it’d get suggested rather than it being based upon current positions.Why top eight ? Doncaster for example who are ninth have two games in hand on Sunderland for example win them and they go above as they would on ppg. This sounds to me of a desperate Sunderland influenced proposal, the only way to give them a chance of promotion.
Explain how you could possible do that please?I’d be happy a mini tournament between top 8 to see who goes up but would need start it with points advantage equal to our points lead and game in hand
If its the top 8 couldn't you just start with the games that have already been played. So we'd only play the outstanding games against the top 8 and remove all other games from the table.Explain how you could possible do that please?

Would guess it would work out that most teams had 3 or 4 games but I'm not going to work them all out!In that scenario, we wouldn't play e.g. Sunderland or Portsmouth - but if you did it like that, might one club have e.g. only 1 game left to play, and another 4? If so, you may have a team that couldn't catch up the others or get promoted? Or am I (probably!) misunderstanding your idea!?
Can see the advantage for Sky. Gives them a load of content. They could even push for the whole thing to be held somewhere like St George Park which would save them the cost of keep moving around their production setup.That being said, I’m hoping it’s just Sky pushing an agenda as opposed to a proposal being seriously considered by the EFL.

I reckon they'll cave into whatever Sky demand. They do, after all, rely so much on TV revenue and it's not called the "Sky Bet" league because they like Jeff Stelling.It’s a ridiculous idea, and even with an objective hat on does not seem the fair or right thing to do. Especially for a team who have lost three games all season and are ahead with a game on hand.
The EFL have always been weak and incompetent, if this comes to fruition it’s another example of that.

I think the problem is that if there was a shortage of testing equipment available and it was used up by footballers, I think there would quite rightly be uproar.Will keep saying it, play behind closed doors and offer the TV companies a slice if they’re insistent on it with a pay per view to watch or stream except for ST holders. Get it done in a month and avoid any legals or complaints while cheering up a fair chunk of the population
Yes I agree. The only reason why they can't play the rest of the season behind closed doors is because of players/staff passing the bug around each other. So playing some kind of daft mini Sky orientated tourny still has this social distancing problem. I cannot see any legal or rational way that the latter is better or safer than the former.Will keep saying it, play behind closed doors and offer the TV companies a slice if they’re insistent on it with a pay per view to watch or stream except for ST holders.

That's hit the nail on the headI think the problem is that if there was a shortage of testing equipment available and it was used up by footballers, I think there would quite rightly be uproar.
Not for me. They’d have had match time.Should only be top 6 let the top two be in the semi final and the other 4 play off to reach the semi finals
