Quoted from forza ivano
this is going way off line, but many in The Establishment were Nazi sympathisers

Also thr Duke of Hamilton was the man Rudolf Hess was trying to meet when he flew into Scotland

The Scots probably wanted the Nazis to give them independence.

I think the national League board might be pushing to curtail the season, as they wouldn't ask clubs to vote on a resolution which involves playing to and end would they... If they did nothing the season would continue.

That's why I think the vote will be to null and void the season/curtail it

Think there are some excellent points in some of those tweets, namely the issue of importance of football in the grand scheme of things. Most of them simply don't have the money to carry on, but are coming across like they are a special case, when there are millions of people struggling in all areas of the entertainment industry without much, if any financial help from the Government.

They gambled on starting the league, the pandemic got worse, ruling out fans return, and they can't expect to be bailed out when others have been forced to get on with it without much help from the public purse.

Pack it in, pull up the drawbridge and live to fight another day.

Step 1 more likely to carry on you'd have thought. So no relegation for them but relegation for us if we can't get out of trouble.

Doesn't feel fair if so.

It's not clear that a simple majority vote will work here. What if 5 clubs vote to abandon the season because it's not viable for them to continue, but the majority vote to play on? Are those 5 clubs forced to continue? If they're given grants as special cases then that might upset some of the others. If they refuse to play would they be punished? Seems harsh.

This could get messy.
