Mention Clubs going bust on 22nd April, is the link to my post on this The FA could offer grants from their budget to league 1 and 2 clubs IMO looking at their financial reports online

Matty I posted many weeks ago(around 6nor 7 weeks ago) about the EFL clubs in league 1 and 2 would need to survive. I've never said otherwise..

The EFL would need to go the Government and Treasury and ask for the loans. Other businesses are doing it. Otherwise they go bust.

As Fleetwood owner made the point this morning his other businesses have taken a hit through this pandemic. So the money he would have isnt there. The government could offer a bail out for each clubs with repayments options over 3 or 4 years period. Some clubs wont need a bail out and some will. The PL and FA should be helping the League 1 and 2 clubs out with funding and loans. Pilley mentioned the PFA this morning. Salary cap will have to come in league 1 and 2 for clubs to survive. The league 1 vote 18 to 4 to finish the season on Points Per Game basis with 4 teams in playoffs and 3 teams going down. 1 team didnt vote due to no internet

Hayden Carter and Lewis Thompson have signed contracts now.

well if you listened to Fleetwood owner this morning on Sky Sports football show he mention that they would need help to survive next season whether this was a Government loan or bigger payment from the PL, PFA help. He is also in favour of a Salary cap coming in place. I agree with @Mashed Potatoes post on his 3 ideas. I think Salary cap should come in place for League 1 and 2 clubs. But I also think that if Owners of clubs are willing to invested in their clubs with their own money and not borrowing money from banks then they should be allow.

The league 1 clubs voted for what they want. The majority of league 1 clubs voted the reasons they did. Yes they are losing and winners for this. I don't know if you saw Fleetwood owner on the football show on Sky Sports this morning who was talking about how he would vote and why. Plus he discuss his club's budgets for next season and he said he would be cutting the budget for next season by 20 to the 30 percent. Yes its not be overall fair but the clubs made a choice now by a democracy vote. I would imagine that Sunderland and Peterborough aren't happy with the current situation or the outcome of the vote.

Promotion and relegation will happen in EFL this season whether they carry on or not

Isn't he working with England youth teams?

Well of course he back training with Cardiff. Why wouldn't be? Looking like the transfer window will be Mid/Late August to End of October from reports on Sky Sports

Yes I read the Monk's Quotes. But Clotet was Monk's number 2 at Swansea, Leeds and Birmingham. So only became a problem only at Birmingham. So if people warned him why did he appoint him 3 times as number 2 then?

well reading a few articles about him stepping down, it appears that his family is in Spain so I do wonder if he has step down for family reasons. Did he stabbed Monk in the back? Monk say so but Clotet has said he didn't. It does seems that Monk and the Birmingham owners had disagreements over playing style, bringing in players and transfer budget. Clotet did bring through 6 Academy players, but some signings haven't work out but I don't think Clotet had the final say on signings there. Will Birmingham go foreign head coach or British manager. Big decision for them.

very surprise that Clotet is leaving. Birmingham owners are looking for the 7th managers under the current owners. So far they had Rowett, Zola, Redknapp, Cotterill, Monk and Clotet. Where they go now for the next boss will be interesting.

Sky Sports hasnt made their selections for week 41 to week 46. Leeds game is week 41. And between the lost of ticket revenue for our home games could be why Venkys have put more money into their holding company Venkys London Limited.

Those 3 go and watch county cricket more due to twenty20 cricket or one day cricket. I would all 3 would watch 4 days cricket over the season. Botham only was commentator for test cricket. Plus isnt he Durham cricket club chairman

I would take Van La Parra. Coleman could be possible back up keeper. Its seems that McLaughlin will sign here in the summer. well he isn't a scout isn't. Just doing a basic article. expect most players been from European clubs

well we don't actually know this as Sky will be picking their games and putting the fixtures into the different time slots of kick offs. Plus there is a vote tomorrow morning with all EFL clubs to finalise everything

Cant beat the experience and knowledge of Sky Commentators of test and one day cricket for me. Shame Botham walk away but He wanted out now. Understandable

Rich Sharpe has done a possible free transfer target list in today's LT https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/18502226.free-transfers-fit-bill-rovers/

The 71 EFL clubs are voting tomorrow. Can ifollow cope with so many fans watching on line? On Ewood Park being close. Why would it be open when the government message is if you can still work from home then do so.

I go to about 1 test day every 2 or 3 years now. Enjoying watching cricket on tv. Perfect view and listening to the commentators and different views and angles of replays.

Superb @Gav. We had a brilliant team back then.. Wish Venables had stay on as coach. Watching the ITV Program Harry's heroes was very enjoyable.

All down to people opinions Paul. But the vast majority BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and 5 programmes I avoid at all cost. No interested in them. Cant wait for sport restarting now
