Re: Season Suspended until April 3rd
Scrap relegation and have those in automatic spaces go up next year from every league. This won't clear until late summer at the earliest.
Perhaps send another up from this league to make up for the gulf in Bury. Liverpool can have a title with an asterisk. |

Any other solution but playing the remaining games will drag through the courts for years. Wait till it is safe to do so, finish this season then make a decision on whether next season needs to be shortened but at least that is known upfront |
Re: Season Suspended until April 3rd
In 1939 the season was 3 games in when the rug was pulled under very different circumstances. Later football was then restructured in a regional form with Wrexham placed in the Wartime western section. looking at the records the town did well against N West giants Everton, ManCity Man United etc.

They did so well we won it! We did have a lot of top-flight players playing for us who were in the mob locally. |

What if we get to November, for example, and it has not gone? It cannot be done then surely as you would be starting the following season in February at the earliest. Add to that the fact promoted teams would have like 1 week to make transfers suitable to their aims of being successful in the league above. Obviously the ideal is that games can resume much earlier. I am talking about a scenario where this is not possible. |
