IMO the new season should not be considered until this one is finished which may mean playing catch up for the next two seasons. Whatever way you do it it is totally wrong to not conclude the season. Perhaps it has to be slightly amended and maybe now there should be no Play offs and so the teams in the promotion positions at the end go up. That seems the fairest way to sort things out rather than just write off the entire season with only ten or eleven games to go. The "season that never was " would make an absolute mockery of Football in general whichever division is involved.
There may also be a case for one season after to be played with no Play offs which would catch it up quicker and get it back to normal as soon as possible. If it takes a new season starting on say 25th October and maybe sacrificing the Mickey mouse cup and even the league Cup for one season then surely that would be a better and fairer outcome.

Roughly 17,000 per year, over the last 6 years, although the yearly figure varies from 28,330 in 2014/15 to 1,692 in 2018/19. |

Regardless of whats happening in the world this is still a forum to disguss Football and he has made a point on it give the CV situation.Why come and post on here othewise? Your 100% right that football means nothing right now given what is happening in the world but its right that on a football forum the future of the game,and our club can be disgussed. We get the CV problem sorted however we can as a human race then the football can come 2nd. |

Just cancel this season. Apart from liverpool southend and bolton no other placing has been decided. Bolton were a given and southend were castaway from safety.

I agree that we should finish the current season first. Even if that means having no 2020/21 season at all!
Worst case is football may not be able to resume until next year so just finish off this season, do Euro 2020, then start the 2021/22 season a little earlier (maybe in July). The early start to the season will also help in creating a gap in the season for the 2022 WC.
