Season Extension

The weather alone has called off an unprecedented number of games this season. Last season we only had 1 game called off due to weather, we've already had 4 this season.
Add in an additional 2 matches called off due to Covid and in a shortened season and its a complete disaster.

What I find disappointing is the complete lack of a proactive approach by the EFL to get games played considering the circumstances. Are the Crawley, Stevenage and Leyton Orient pitches also frozen currently? Can they not host games this weekend even if at short notice?
We played no games for 4 weeks, we should've been bringing other fixtures forward and getting games played in that time. Spurs have shown that that is doable this season.

I really do not know how Carlisle are going to get the games played. They are going to have to play 23 games in 83 days, thats a game every 3.6 days. Just one more postponement for them and that becomes impossible

 

Also it's highly likely that the tv contracts when up for renewal will bring in less money than before breaking contracts just won't help matters.

The PL and EFL just won't want to but more power to the tv companies.

 

I think the 117M was on the TV rebates. If you take in the matchday revenues then 300M is not that unrealistic.

 

I am no expert in these matters, but if I am hearing it right. The evil football super rich powers and their shadowy TV oligarch counterparts are forging ahead with their dastardly master plans, despite terrorist threats, soaring heat in a never heard of until now country, and a little thing called COVID, to get their evil ways and host dark-side sporting events, and stop the EFL extending the season and playing all its games, and to achieve their ultimate cowardly masterplan, to sink BCFC into oblivion.

We must get the PFA to employ its undercover trained agents against this plot now, and to awaken its assassin sleepers in the UEFA and world-wide governments, that is what I say.










Sorry - I have had a few and getting a bit bored

 

Not sure if you have a midget with you tonight or banged your head but you are not with it.

I said every PL club lost about 10.7% times it by 20 based on Chelsea's 16m. It's 330m.

Hope you are ok? If you need help with the midget then let me know.

 

Damn it, you'd have had a few QAnon's saying hallelujah if you hadn't messed up with that last line.

 

If things continue as they are the EFL won't have any other option than to extend the season I believe I read on TB somewhere teams are having to play 3 games in 11 days that's not sustainable over the next 20+ games or so.

 

I can’t believe that UEFA are going to lose too much sleep over Forest Green v Salford or Newport v Scunthorpe taking too much of an audience share if the season is extended and it clashes with the Euros. Most people in England will struggle to point to those four teams on a map let alone the viewers across Europe and the RoW. With Covid there has to be a degree of pragmatism from all.

 

Easy solution. Thr efl just agrees now to wipe out 6 games for each club, irrespective of who they play. Just remove the last three home and last three away games and make it a 40 game season. Some will benefit some will lose but its better than risking serious injury to an over extended player.

 

Not having this. Can you imagine the litigation? Just not workable in my opinion

 

Needs must. Carry on with the postponed games and it could be a necessity
