Don’t forget some clubs may end up going out of business, they still have staff and players to pay, can’t sustain that for long on no income surely and I would imagine any compensation offered by the government wouldn’t amount to the huge amount it takes to run a club.

If the season is unable to finish what about this for an idea...
Leeds and West Brom go up automatically.
The teams currently in the play off places:
Whoever has the most points from the matches played against the other teams in the play offs. For example Forest will have 6 points from beating Brentford twice, 3 points from beating Fulham etc etc. Whoever comes out on top goes up via the play offs.

No club will be promoted.
The PL will close ranks & we go again next season.

That's the problem TPL.
The bottom 3 teams currently in the PL are not going to accept relegation are they? Not when it's still mathematically possible for them to stay up.

Its not just the PL who will close ranks.
Does anyone seriously think that if a decision is made which prevents us going up and favours another club that Maranakis wont go legal; of course he will, and so will other clubs if they think they are getting unfavourable treatment.
There is no way that an alternative to all of the games being played will be acceptable to all clubs

They may decide to play out the rest of this season in August & September. Have say 4 week break to make new transfers and commence a shorten league programme of matches for next season?

I am sure that would give us the third spot.
Very unlikely to happen though I imagine.
Great in theory but probably a non starter.
Irony :rolleyes:
