Doesn’t say anything about Championship. League 1 or 2.

Casper, where Oliver Dowden says, 'Thursday's meeting with the Football Association, Premier League and English Football League was "positive" and "progressed plans" for the sport to resume, I suppose you have to interpret what he meant in total but for me it's all over in Leagues 1 and 2 they've almost said it already.
This is all about getting the Prem clubs to complete the season and not having to pay back for not completing their TV quota to the overseas TV companies, that pay millions to screen the TV rights around the world. This money has been paid in advance to Prem clubs so rightly so the TV companies involved want their cash back.
Agree Brin.
Leagues 1 and 2 were over weeks ago for me.
