Re: Decision on finishing the season
Whenever football restarts I think all outstanding fixtures should be completed. Never mind about next season,could even have a break from Cup games and play twice a week to catch up. I know a lot won’t agree but it’s the fairest way out. Would be a lot more for that outcome if Wrexham where in the top position.

Re: Decision on finishing the season
I think if all teams survive the break we should rank all teams based on where they finish based on PPG.
Keep relegation and promotion numbers as per agreement at start of this season and also promote highest ranked team in a playoff position. BUT: If teams go broke and I think many will, we need to seriously readjust. This is where the problem will be (Bury is just the start). If this occurs, rank all teams on PPG and simply put them into divisions based on final positions this season. I don't think it will take much to bankrupt 10 or more teams in the Football league and many more in the lower leagues. This could get very interesting. Wrexham could actually benefit from the sound financial position it is in and theoretically actually end up in the footbal league (just need 18 clubs to fold). Im betting 17 will fold Failed clubs could restart as AFC clubs in the lowest Pyramid leagues and work their way back. Don't underestimate the impact of what we are going through.... In Australia our AFL, Rugby League and Football leagues are all suspended with players taking up to 90% pay cuts. And some clubs still expected to go broke. Sponsorships are being cut as is TV money. These are very interesting times.

Re: Decision on finishing the season
I’m a huge advocate of finishing this season before you start a new one. Contracts is a minor issue that can be resolved easily by the PFA en masses agreeing to extend all contracts to the new end of season, likewise with loans.
Take as long as it takes for it to be safe to play football again and whatever time is lost is adjusted from future football seasons but at least the required adjustments are known upfront and will be fair to all. This is the only fair and honourable way to deal with the situation. Scrap the season, end it on current standings, PPG....all of these are grossly unfair to some teams. Not finishing this season will have repercussions that are moaned about for centuries just how Everton fans still moan about Hyseil preventing them playing in Europe. It will be dragged through the courts by clubs who will have lost millions from any other decision than finishing this season and they will have a very valid case as regardless of the extenuating circumstances the league will have chosen the wrong option when they could have played out the games to a natural conclusion. |

To my mind, contracts can be extended, surely, with a few guidelines for clubs to adhere to. Complete the current season, no matter when it is that it can recommence. I would rather complete this season, and have all the promotions, relegations, and deserved champions crowned, than fret too much about starting a Next Season on time etc. Like I say, not saying I’m right, but as Haruki says the fall out from this season being scrapped will never be forgotten, even though it has been suspended for the biggest of reasons ... it still makes sense to me to finish the season whenever possible, reschedule the following season afterwards. |
