From what I've read, Portsmouth still want to play last season's Final!ForeverAddickted said:
They should never have bothered with the EFL Trophy this season, the midweeks teams played that, should have been used for League games!!clb74 said:Then on the weekend of the 9th ,7 league one teams in the fa cup
Maybe they can have a double-header on the date of this year's final.1 -
As I posted on the Peterbourough cancelled/rearranged thread, there are actually 8 "spare" midweek slots that games can be fitted into after the 30th January. That doesn't include the midweek before the Good Friday / Easter Monday weekend either. No need at this stage to be even thinking about extending the season.clive said:The league season has to be extended in the wake of increased Covid-19 cases, says Accrington manager John Coleman.
The League One club has had six games postponed because of the virus and played just 16 - three fewer than more than half the sides in the division.

It would be quite funny for a team to win the 2020 final, parade the trophy around Wembley then hand it straight back for the second final to be fought over later that day!Fortune 82nd Minute said:

Why start this years tournament and play shitty group matches against premier league U23 sides if you can't even play last years final?

The Kyle Walker story surely can't be true, especially given the trouble he got into before during lockdown.

I imagine we'll go back to having the Charlton players changing in lounges at The Valley and coming down the steps rather than using the tunnelMattF said:
Most clubs in L1 and L2 never played under the tight restrictions used last June and July so this will be new to them1 -

Accrington v Pompey game tomorrow is now postponed - frozen pitch.

That means Accrington will have had no game between the 19th December and the 8th January when they play us!Addickted said:Accrington v Pompey game tomorrow is now postponed - frozen pitch.
For Pompey it's even worse, they played on the 18th December, but are in FA Cup action next weekend so won't play in L1 until the 16th January, almost a month later

In these very strange times, couldn't they have reversed the fixture and played it at Fratton Park, maybe on Sunday to allow pitch preparation?killerandflash said:

Too sensible a proposal for the EFL to consider. Shouldn't be a problem seeing as no fans are attending & its akin to playing a game at a neutral venue.Richard J said:

Just out of interest how much notice do clubs have to give if they want to get a match cancelled?0

It's not very often we tend to get any kind of advantage but surely Accrington going the best part of 3 weeks without a game will help us? I remember Bowyer saying he doesn't like players missing two weekends as he feels players lose match sharpness.killerandflash said:

Wouldnt be surprised if a team can go a goal down and say: "You know what, they scored because we've got COVID, we're getting the game called off"Mendonca In Asdas said:Just out of interest how much notice do clubs have to give if they want to get a match cancelled?3 -

"Accrington have had the benefit of 3 weeks rest, we needed to be ready for their energy. By playing 4 full backs we limited them to only 2 goals in the first half"
