They should have pressured the government to bail out the league with a grant, pay for the tests and try to complete the programme. Now anytime theres an issue in future the decision process will be to follow the precedent and will that affect peoples decisions to invest money in a club be it a shareholder or fan?
I know talking bollocks is a speciality of yours, but this is a quite spectacular effort.
Well mr sheep, as you're so keen to take the vaccine I must confer you are a little light of the grey matter. Baa baa. Idiot.

Forest Green chairman not happy.

Clearly stands out as “an imposter” of a League 2 chairman.

Well done Port Vale and Bradford btw.

A vote for common sense. And Barrow to be promoted from the National League to take the place of Bury to keep the league at 24 clubs again.

Is there any sniff of a club or two not surviving to start next season? If so, how many? That would put the process of deciding promotions and relegations into something of a pickle.

Jobi was interviewed on BBC Breakfast this morning – he always does football credit in my opinion, with a calm reasoned interview.

His view was it really had to end this way, and on the suggestion that Stevenage may be trying to survive via some play-off idea (which isn’t clear) he made the fair point that if one has promotion on points per game one has to have relegation too for consistency.

Agree the point above re Barrow - they have to be given their EFL spot back. They went out controversially (finished third bottom, had everything to do with geography and not fairness), so perhaps they'll return under some controversy.

Think Barrow will be a tad upset. Spent a lot of money on ground improvements to bring it up to league standard, expecting/hoping to recoup money in higher league

You laugh yet you’re one of the mugs moaning on here about wanting your money back for the games not played. Have you not invested money as a fan for a season ticket? Did you not want that money back? Yes you did, so you can go do one. A few more of you fall into that bracket, hypocrites.

Glad to see the back of this season truth be told, ending it with a win against Cambridge and Jobi making his return is about as good as it could've got.

If you'd written a football themed film script a few years back that involved...

Clowns invading the pitch against a crazy madman owner
Club nearly going bust
Club on the verge of relegation from non-league
New manager winning the league with highlights like the Sutton keeper doing keepy uppy in the last minute
Tragic loss of hero manager weeks after the glory of promotion
Sacking a new manager after a couple of weeks during the season
Global pandemic ending the next season
Ex player now England captain returns to sponsor the club

You would've thrown it out the studio for being too far fetched. It's been absolutely crazy few years at Orient and it doesn't look like stopping anytime soon :shock:

13th March on the thread “no gate income for a month” you said it about 3 or 4 times. Go look it up and change your name to Sado.
