Opinion: Why the Millers should go up

[CAMiller]

Other end of scale. Tranmere won there last 3... 3 points behind Wimbledon game in hand

Yes, I have them, Sunderland and Posh as the 3 I think would vote against ending the season on PPG and having a 4 team playoff. Any other club doing so can't be voting for the right reasons in my mind.

Thought it was about time I stuck up for the Millers. Opinion piece written before this afternoon's EFL announcement confirming it wants unweighted PPL promotions if the L1 season ends now. From this week's Advertiser.

Excellent article Paul, thanks.

Some classic comments.

Why don't the previous 35 games count as much as the last 9 games ?
Someone ought to send your article to the Peterborough media.

Not a fan of Fry or Peterbro' but if we get promoted automatically I think we have got away with one.

We were looking like a poor side. We were in a poor run of form. Rochdale out-classed us. Ickey was injured. Crookes looked knackered and our style of play had become predictable. Yes we could have turned it around and I still think we would have made the play offs but if the remaining 9 games had been played I think we would have dropped out of the top 2.


A hollow victory for me.

We would have been ok as injuries cleared up. This squad knows never to give up.

True it would be a struggle if games had not stopped, but it did stop and as pip said injuries have cleared up and I think we would have breezed these last 9 games if it had restarted UTM

I bet you he wants it public so he will know who to take to court, if it’s a hidden vote any club can say it’s not us we wanted to play on and he couldn’t prove otherwise. He’s a moron roly

Joey lad, just a point, you have won the lottery in that you aint in jail... yet...

and for the selfish clubs who think we should carry on...

There has been no football in England since early March and at League One and League Two level in particular, no games means no cash coming in as many clubs budget for the matchday income of tickets, refreshments and club shop sales.

Swindon Town chairman Lee Power fears "30-40%" of League One and Two clubs may not make it to the start of next season without further financial aid.

League Two sides, many struggling with the financial effects of coronavirus, opted to end the campaign early.

"Unless there's some help from higher up the food chain, there's going to be a number of clubs that won't see the start of [next] season," Power said.

Speaking to BBC Radio Wiltshire, he continued: "As owner and chairman, you have to start looking at how you budget and work towards what looks like a September start and how you're going to get there.

"A number of CEOs and owners of football clubs in Leagues One and Two have had these discussions and it's a simple fact that 30-40% of us won't get there unless there's some help."
