So many teams shafted by this decision. At least Cov have won a tainted trophy, and they called our title win lucky lol  So harsh on tranmere and the play offs being so tight can’t see how this was voted in.

Blimey, bet Port Vale and Bradford are delighted about that. 

Port Vale voted to end the season tbf. Fair play to them, mind.

 

Also these clubs know how much empty stadiums would effect them. Especially Port Vale/Bradford who have the bigger grounds. PL clubs can get away with it because financially not impact as much.

 

I feel for Tranmere but tbf Bolton and Southend relegations were on the cards.

Were these votes unanimous? Feel there'll be a few legal wranglings if not...

23 to 1 (Forest Green) in favour of ending the season.

Playing on in leagues 1 and 2 didn't make sense, only people that wanted to play was for their own self interests. Many can't afford to play without crowds, lots of players could be out of contract. Clubs need to know where they stand so can see most clubs voted to end. 

 

Element of luck for those promoted, and those that get playoff positions and awful luck for a couple of sides in relegation places. I wouldn't have been against no promotion and relegations but you'd have to do that's cross the league's, can't void some and complete others.

Harsh on Tranmere.  3 points behind Wimbledon with a game in hand. Due to play Wimbledon next but one game as well. 

That's the downside to PPG, it doesn't take into account current form. Sides are now paying for poor starts (Tranmere) or poor runs of form before the suspension (Ipswich).

 

Such a shame the leagues couldn't finish but with no gate money, where's the incentive? Let's hope the season can start in good time and clubs can get fans back in reduced numbers or people will pay for streaming.

Robins has guided them from League Two to the Championship inside three years. I wouldn't call their title win lucky this season, they've been strong and around the top all season and only lost 3.

 

Incredible given they've got no money and no ground.

Cov have totally earned thier promotion. Robins has guided them marvellously these last three years or so, including the Wembley trip. 

 

Pity they couldn't hold on against Brum in the cup, conceding a late equaliser at FT and ET.

Yeah fair comment, cannot fault what’s happened there the last few years. He’s done a great job so far.

Coventry deserve it, best team I've seen Lincoln play this season.  Hopefully Wycombe win the play offs. They've been up there all season and Gareth Ainsworth is a really nice guy.

Ironically they voted not to carry on

A step closer to playing Cov again:fc:

Hope they move back into the City tbf. I think they've got about 5 potential sites. Worse thing they did was to move away from Highfield Road. Richo is so shit and such a poor away day, be better if they move back.
