League One season to be curtailed this week - Telegraph 18:33 - May 17 with 4441 viewspointofblue

But the possibility still seems to be there to extend the Play Offs to eight teams. I mean... seriously?!

With eight we would be - third to tenth. Looks like Coventry and Rotherham will go up automatically.

We are 11th using PPG.

Forgot about that - what about weighted PPG? As much as it pains me to say it I think we'd really push it if they extend the Play Off number.

Though I guess if we do fail to make it/go up it may give Evans some leeway with Lambert's contract.

I believe we stand 11th however it is done.

Edit.

I think the top 6 in PPG is Coventry, Rotherham, Wycombe, Oxford, Portsmouth, Fleetwood
Weighted PPG: Oxford go above Wycombe, Peterborough replace Pompey in play-offs.

The play offs are extended and we still don't make it ?

What a shocking season it has been.

I cannot understand why there are not only 2 possibilities

1) Resume the season
2) Abandon the season with no promotion or relegation.

Anything else is just unfair, you can't move the goalposts.

Yeah, essentially we've compounded being woeful in the Championship by being distinctly average in Division 3.



Tremendous.

Blimey, I actually find myself agreeing with you. I don't like the idea of ending a season prematurely and treating it like it's been finished. It's not very fair.

Surely not if we are 11th after PPG applied? Unless a club above us cannot afford to carry on. Would be the most embarrassing way to possibly go up!

I suppose with the Championship aiming to finish the season, and therefore relegation places will be filled, there appears to be a necessity to fill the promotion spots in League One, but I don't see how that is feasible. Any solution is just changing the rules that were agreed. Either finish it, or forget promotion and relegation.

Embarrassing way to go up, yes, but much less embarrassing than another year in League One.

I think we deserve an automatic place, I mean if the half season method emp!oyed...

In truth a ppg method would probably be fairest, voiding would be unfair o on the top 2 especially... Also would voiding mean Bolton start on minus again next season?

The only way I'd accept voiding is if it meant Bury could join us all in L1.

I suppose, objectively, PPG leads to a less fair outcome if it means Gillingham overtake us. They have a much tougher run-in - still have to play the top two, Fleetwood and Wycombe. We have four of the bottom six at home.

Could it be they’ve decided to keep the places as they are for that reason (and, miraculously, everyone’s agreed)?

Although the obvious counter point to that is that the teams respective form over the past 20-odd games suggests they would be well clear of us by the season end

Us being deemed to be ahead of Gillingham and included in an expanded playoff would be a pretty embarrassing outcome, although I’d laugh hard if we somehow won it

Gillingham have played a game less than us. If you 'true the league up' so we've all played the same games on a PPG basis they go ahead of us.

Accepting that it can’t be completed, it would be unfair whether you abandon it or declare it completed

Personally I think enough of the season has been played to justify the latter, although can certainly see the counter-argument
