Looking at the voting how I see it, is the majority vote to cancel the season, Has to the clubs who want to continue the season, taking legal action against the EFL, if the vote goes against them, the EFL should implement the ruling that the EFL run the league, and a fair vote of all clubs was taken, so no legal action against them can be taken. ( Thats if they have the b*lls to do it )

Why should LG 2 affect LG 1

This is the full EFL proposal:
The EFL Board met yesterday to consider the feedback and subsequent implications of last week’s divisional Club meetings, as the League continues to address the many complex financial and operational matters resulting out of the COVID-19 crisis, including how the 2019/20 campaign is concluded.
The various proposals and counter proposals received from Clubs have been reviewed and, as a result, the Board has finalised the draft framework that would be adopted into EFL Regulations, in the event that a division is to make the decision to curtail its season as League Two indicated last Friday.
Clubs are now required to give the matter further consideration, before the Board formally proposes the appropriate Regulation changes, which will then be voted on by all Clubs.
The recommended framework is as follows:
1. Resuming the 2019/20 season with the existing format remains the most appropriate course of action from a sporting integrity perspective, but the Board accepts there are circumstances that may lead to curtailment (as has been demonstrated with League Two) or a situation subsequently transpires whereby the season is unable to conclude.
2. This means that, in the event of an early curtailment:
a. Final divisional placings should be determined on unweighted points per game (if required).
b. Promotion and relegation should be retained.
c. Play-Offs should be played in all circumstances but should not be extended (beyond four teams).
3. If a scenario arises whereby the Play-Offs cannot be played, the EFL Board will determine the appropriate course of action.
4. The Board considers that the majority required to curtail the 2019/20 season in any division should be 51%. Determining whether or not to curtail the season is a decision for each division to take.
5. The principle of relegation across all three divisions is integral to the integrity of the pyramid, from the Premier League down to the National League, provided we have assurances that the National League will start season 2020/21 (i.e. the relegated Club in League Two has somewhere to play).
6. Any regulatory solution should be relevant and specific to the current challenges posed by the COVID-19 outbreak and reach a conclusion that is clear and effective with the impact and justifications easy for all stakeholders to understand.
EFL Chair, Rick Parry, said:
“In the event that a divisional decision is made to curtail the 2019/20 season, the EFL Board is recommending that the League adopts the original framework with the amendments as identified, as there is a strong desire to remain as faithful as possible to the Regulations and ensure there is consistency in the approach adopted across the EFL in all divisions.
“The Board has always acknowledged that a single solution to satisfy all Clubs would always be hard to find, but we are at the point now where strong, definitive action is needed for the good of the League and its members.”

Think Donny will vote to play on just so we don’t go up

Although He isn't the Owner Darren Moore stated about three weeks ago that the season should be cancelled.
Interesting to see what they do now

We've really lost the spirit of football in all this. These arguments are all about self-interest, money, titles and cups. Nothing about the integrity of the game. Decisions made by powerful men, who can watch from the safety of a glass screen, whilst other folk take all the risks. Just on some premise that they may, or may not play at a higher level, that may or may not be up and running sometime soon.
The game is bigger than all this. If every team went bust tomorrow, Evey town would find eleven men to kick a ball about. Us older guys would go and watch. The game won't die on the vote of a few millionaires.
Stop the squabbling and make decisions for the good of the game. Not your own egos.

I think the vote will be to continue playing.
Football and sport is coming back all round the world. We need to get back playing here.
