RIP. Another great lost too soon. Lets hope the gods smile on their beloved club and we get back to the promised land shortly.

French league has cancelled their seasons, and declared league winners based on points per game.

Sets an interesting precedent for Leeds

I take it we'd still be in the promotion places?

yes

I was hoping we could play out the season but the more it goes on the more obstacles are put in the way.
The main one being if one player in the squad tests positive that means the team cannot play for 14 days or the players from the team he played against cannot play presumably.
To scrap the league would be ridiculous after 80% of it has already been played.
The only option as I see it is points per game with relegation/promotion across all leagues.
Whatever they choose expect complaints/appeals galore from a number of disadvantaged clubs.

Season must be played out or the favourable points per game mode, the FA have said, no option to null and void.

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Mon May 11, 2020 7:07 pm  

The points per game would take into account points per home game and points per away game wouldn't it?

Yes, we would be top of the league in that scenario.
