EFL needs to suspend the season untill cases drop,its not a level game if some sides have a fully fit squad,while others have weakened squads and players unfit due to having had the virus.

It was a complete farce to even start the season with a global pandemic, localised friendlies could have been organised and a mini competitions arranged.Its a total sham,all in the name of cash!

Completely agree, it makes no sense the season continuing at the moment.

all the hugging ect,in my mind hasnt helped either,but what do you do cancel it all,start in august,but we would be minus 6 again,i would expect.

Yes it is money that dictates the status of the game, has been for a long time now, calling for the season to be stopped or even cancelled has consequences for that very reason, no games = no sponsorship money, no live TV money etc because these things are all contracted in and are generally the only thing preventing the majority of clubs going under because they have no income but are paying their players, staff etc what they are contracted to.

Anyone with any great ideas please step forward now, because if you are capable of resolving this issue and then maybe you can do the same with the wider economic damage caused by the virus and lockdown measures !
