I agree, some teams are threatening to furlough their senior players and just play the youngsters. Surely that will lose all credibility of the league. The FA should block any National League clubs being promoted to the EFL.adamstag wrote:If they don’t have relegations in their competition they shouldn’t have promotion

I think they will run it as far as they can and then go down the PPG route again.

Is it not an option to extend the season to allow for a little bit of extra time for the games to be played in May?
I've not been keeping tabs on it too much if I'm honest and don't know if that is viable.

I was under the impression the scheme was intended to support businesses that were unable to trade due to Gov restrictions.

I wonder if Southend or Grimsby will try and use this argument if they are relegated from the EFL. Not fair to to be replaced in the EFL by teams propped up by government funding...or National League not competitive because teams effectively dropped out.
I would...especially if the cheating Spireites or Notts County were promoted
