That's a sign that they're running scared

Mind, if they get away with trying to cheat, which is what this is, it's a very clear, and obvious, sign that the EFL want us to stay in the Third Division

Good move by them though

[rb92]

It wouldn’t surprise me if the EFL allowed them to do it.

When's the world Cup starting again marra?

Isn't it the winter world Cup this time and the season can't be extended or did I dream that?

 

[steesafc]

Utterly farcical if it is.

So expecting it, the EFL have previous for ridiculous decisions

It is winter but will the Premier and FA want to give the players adequate rest period? Don't the big clubs tend to jet off to foreign independent money generating tournaments that then makes a mockery of their bleatings of being tired at the end of the long season...

21st November to 18th December.

By extending it still dosnt mean that the outstanding games can be completed in there asked time limit
There could be more cases of Covid in the teams there playing
And what about the teams that have played games with a depleted squad
Like us

 

[young2077]

Teams play weaker teams in cup to concentrate on the league, if you choose not to do that then should be told to **** off when you come crying about Fixture pile up.

I think it’s Covid related I’m not sure
But I think there will use that excuse
I think they will say we had to postpone there games and it was not there fault ?????

I wonder how many did they miss for covid and they are not the only ones, could have played it by playing younger less experienced players like we have.

Integrity

 

[Scootsie]

They’ve **** in their own nest.

Cancelled games because of injuries yet playing next to full strength sides in the pizza cup.

**** them.

 

[Rhinos Legend]

It’s happened to us and others, i think Rotherham had to play 3 or 4 games a week last season, they just need to get on with it. Don’t see why they should get special treatment.

 

[Oliver's Army]

The can **** right off the ****ing bellends. Play the games you soft twats
