Today’s Tuesday, today’s Tuesday, Tuesday is – well according to The Scaffold, back in the day, Tuesday is soup. Is everybody happy? Well, those of us who support League One sides aren’t really are we? We’d like Tuesday to be ‘decision day’.

The Premier League players are back in training today, I’m expecting the Championship to follow suit very soon and League Two have taken the decision to finish the season as the table stands. But, in League One we are still playing the waiting game.

We were, more or less, promised a decision last week, then another sort-of promise for a decision yesterday. It didn’t happen and we are still no further forward in what we will be doing with the 2019/20 season.

As a Miller and in second place in the table it’s a bit awkward to join in with what should happen. Obviously, if it went to a vote we’d all vote for the top two – or possibly three – to be promoted. Just as obviously those clubs below us will want the season to re-start.

BristolLive says that today all the clubs are going to vote what to do. But, is that right? Ultimately shouldn’t it be the ‘bosses’ who make the decision? And aren’t those bosses the EFL?

Will we get a decision today? Or will we still be sat this time tomorrow twiddling our thumbs waiting for an answer?

    Whatever decision is arrived at it will be open to possible legal challenge but must I think not offend the concept of natural justice. The EFL cannot, say, promote Coventry and not RUFC; that’s a non-starter. To promote anyone you have to say either the season is finished and arrive at a ppg of some sort to decide who goes up or finish the season. This last is not feasible. So you either abandon the season and no club goes up or down or you promote clubs on a ppg basis with a possible amendment that third place could be decided on a play-offs basis. But (but, but, but) if a single player tests positive during the play-offs imo the whole thing would probably have to be scrapped. Bite the bullet and promote 3 clubs on ppg. Only sensible option and Fry can boil his head.
