    If their competition is so worthless to them I'm going to think long and hard about investing my time and money in something that can be scrubbed out so casually. They're sports clubs first and businesses second. If they're not sure about that, they can ask the fans and nobody supports them as a business.
    It was the 2019/20 season and we've still got 8 months 1 week of 2020 to go. We can already count the 2020/21 season out. There won't be a vaccine til deep into 2021, the last quarter of this year at the earliest.

    They should have valued and honoured their season
    These two posts sum it up for me.

    The National League Board have proven they have not got the balls (pardon the pun) between them to make a decision, or not so left the clubs to decide by vote. They’ve been itiching to do something for weeks since they scrubbed the other lower leagues out.

    It’s been done in haste as well in my opinion and it now means technically the regular season will finish this Saturday as scheduled. Maybe that’s why they were getting twitchy because the end of the season was coming and wanted an outcome. The only problem is that come this Saturday not everyone will have played 46 games.

    So the question is what will happen to those teams in the promotion, playoffs or relegation places? As those planned games will be coming up.

    Also what sense does it make to deny clubs the income they so desperately needed because there will certainly be no more home games for the 20/21 season for anyone.

    Nine months of this season scrubbed out and thrown away just like that. Yet there is still no certainty as nobody knows how much of next season will suffer a similar fate.

    Just imagine the irony if we don’t get fans back in grounds until next year. That period until the start of the 2021/22 season could have been used to complete this season and the entire 2020/21 season cancelled. That will not be an option now.

    Wrong decision.
