IF the EFL leagues are over and done with I'm calling time on the Prediction League the table will stand as it is.
There will not enough going off in the Premiership should they decide to carry on, in order to formulate a 10 game fixture list as the games may well be scattered throughout the week.
There's a copy of the recording on the gaschat website, after the BBC got hold of it.
Suggests that the 3 promoted teams would be 'on sporting merit' whatever that means. So I guess it would be current standings - Wycombe go up in 3rd, or average points per game - Oxford who are currently 8th would go up.
and all this assumes that it will be safe to commence a new season in August which is by no means guaranteed.
If we do go up on a PPG rule then it could mean we could be playing maybe half of our cship games next season behind closed doors.
Difficult to get excited about that
I couldn't really care less if they promoted Bolton, it's the substantial points deduction at S6 that I'm interested in

BREAKING NEWS!!!
Just took this from the official Bradford city web site....
'City For All' 2020/21 season-ticket sales have today been suspended.
The decision has been taken as the club continues to await further information regarding a conclusion to the current campaign, with the start date for next season yet to be confirmed.
This comes following a meeting yesterday held between the EFL and the Bantams' Sky Bet League Two colleagues.
City officials have recently been informed of the ever-growing possibility of supporters being unable to attend matches until 2021.
And it is now highly likely that next season will commence behind closed doors.
Should this be the case, the club will endeavour to ensure those who have already purchased season tickets for the coming campaign will be able to view matches - FREE of charge - from home via iFollow.
If this is not preferred then refunds will become available at a later date.
The club will move to update supporters on this matter as soon as possible, with talks to continue over the coming weeks between the relevant governing bodies.
PLEASE NOTE: The previously-stated Sunday May 31 'City For All' 2020/21 season-ticket deadline no longer applies.
It has also been confirmed by BBC West Yorkshire Sport daily. If this is the case then the season must really be over for the EFL

This "solution" seems to be gathering pace on several platforms
However just cannot see how clubs can finance playing for half a season or more behind closed doors or, if start of season was delayed until 2021 how they can maintain current contracts and "promotion" bonuses which will more than likely be written into many contracts.
Clubs will fold
Surely this will affect us now particularly if we go up where costs are much higher
Can the Stewart family bank role us for 10 months with no season ticket sales or gate receipts.
Maybe they could sell half season tickets this summer for the latter part of next season as at least it's something
Will we be able to try and re-sign loan players like Iverson and Barlasser or will they be the result of an inevitable cost cutting measure.
It's tough enough in the cship but if we're less equipped than before it's not going to be very enjoyable
