    Must be frustrating with the talk of drawing a line through this season.
    A relief ,I suppose, for us but must be gutting for you guys.

    PL and UEFA now talking of starting new season late and playing remaining games . And reading their reasons is all money orientated , apparently they stand to lose Hundreds of Millions if they don’t complete .

    exactly. Wherever decision is made will be the one that costs the least. Sky must be ringing up now as will all the sponsors and other broadcasters

    From what little I’ve heard is that UEFA not gonna make a decision but leave it up to each FA to decide how to conclude their seasons. My mate sent me a clipping from some newspaper. Not good for us if season is just declared void. But UEFA want champions and other team to enter their competitions. Can see Rangers not agreeing with Celtic being offered a champions league place. If we were to be promoted then Hearts would go down and they have threatened legal action.
    All a huge mess.

    I’d have thought they would have cancelled like they’ve done with the rest of non league football.....:D:D

    Won't they lose money by not fitting a full 2020/21 season in though?

    I think they stand to lose money whichever way they go tbh but I suspect it’s which ever way they lose the least they’ll follow .

    From the latest a I’ve seen it’s all money orientated. Not one idea has any other real merit or real safety factor if the virus is still about

    Completing it is the right thing to do. There's no genuinely good reason not to

    There is no end date to a season, no set one anyway. The season is about 80% complete so what logical reason is there to pretend it didn't happen and just start another one rather than completing this when possible?

    Has the idea of adding this year's points on been discussed? As a season ticket holder I want a full uninterrupted season of football if possible rather than a load of squashed together televised games and an altered 20/21 season.
