westy365owl Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 So I know its been debated before on here but surely now the chances of season being suspended has got to have grown . More teams are sending back positive tests , rugby has put a two week break in place , Scotland have stopped football in all leagues below championship and Cup games and we have Fulham games having to be swapped around to accommodate other teams With the above being said surely its only a matter of time before the EFL looks to suspended football to some extent 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUMBELOWS91 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 If there is one, it won't be for more than 2/3 weeks and then maybe extend the season by a week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeonLeon Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 As I said in the last thread, a 2-3 week break won’t make a difference unless in that time the infection rate in the country plummets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonboy42 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Sooner or later the integrity of the leagues will be called into question. All the players missing would have an impact on the results. Is it the same for everyone? Not necessarily.... there will definitely be winners and losers IMO. Just hope we come out on the right side of whatever happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon the government are giving them a chance to do that, suspend for a couple of weeks..and reorganis or whatever..cancel euros, maybe. If they don't the government will do it for them..

Fuzzy logics Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Money talks. Hence why scotland have only suspended lower leagues and why the same will happen in England so they 'appear' to be doing something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
