But there is EFL precedent for it. From weather postponements to the Battle of Brammall Lane, they carry the result as valid. Precedent becomes ‘case law’ for reasons of fairness. Our company secretary seems to be wrong | | | |

Yes they were but the fact remains both managers wanted the game abandoned when the score was 1-1?…. The ref decided to play in.
