The EFL make millions from them so won’t happen. And as I always say about the Grand Final in rugby. Whilst it may not be right or fair, everyone knew the rules at kick off.
I agree with vince, if this season is to finish, it should finish on the rules that it started on. Next season u can have whatever rules u want as long as they are set before it starts, so u could have a short season, only one set of fixtures etc etc
Forget Liverpool, Leeds Albion etc for a minute and let’s spare a thought for Barrow. Voted out at the expense of either Hereford or Wimbledon early 70s. Nobody knows better than Latics how hard it was to gain league status. It would be absolute heartbreak if they cannot finish the season and dont take their deserved place bank in league football after such a long absence.Gaining league status is different now. They were successfully re-elected to the Football League after finishing rock bottom of Division 4 in 1970–71, We thought we were nailed on to get elected that season, so we certainly wouldn’t have been sympathetic then. However, the following season, 1971–72 was to be Barrow’s last as a Football League club and after a failed bid for re-election, Barrow were voted out of the Football League, to be replaced by Hereford (China bulls instead of a biro!). It would be tough, but another good season and they’re in. We had to wait another seven years before being the last club to be elected into the league.
