Lrrr Posted April 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 1 hour ago, Eddie Hitler said: The EFL should not be allowing even the possibility of that scenario to exist: if City win both and Derby lose one and draw one then with Bolton's record standing City are 6th and with Bolton's record expunged Derby are 6th. The EFL would then be deciding who gets the last play-off place after the last ball has been kicked. That is not how you run a professional league. Possibility of suing the shit out of the football league if they decided to expunge the results if that scenario were to play out and Derby were then to get 6th over us?

Yep. Expunging Bolton's results was IMO a valid option prior to Saturday's games. If they do it now or after tonight's games then it will affect a lot of things: places, play-off contenders, and as noted above the outcome of bets. The EFL will bring a whole heap of trouble down upon themselves if they do it now. The soft option is two 3-0 walk overs and be done with it.

McNasty Filth Posted May 2, 2019 Report Share Posted May 2, 2019 Bit torn with their plight though. Of course wouldn’t wish it on their fans, but reckon they’ve been cursed ever since Gartside their former prem chairman seriously recommended a closed shop in the prem, so no relegation to and from. Reckon the football gods cast a spell on them at that moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was a Bolton fan I'd be praying for the club to go into admin. ....new pheonix club to be formed owned by the fans , and start the journey back from (probably) the North west Counties League.(similar to the path Hereford took after being screwed over by devious owners).

robin_unreliant Posted May 3, 2019 Report Share Posted May 3, 2019 Rather than make Brentford play them after Sunday, why not award the points to Brentford. It's a meaningless match and Bolton have been unable to field a side before the end of the season. Seems unfair to the Brentford fans to make them play next week.

Kingswoodactor Posted May 3, 2019 Report Share Posted May 3, 2019 Interesting, because of Brentford's superior GD that has now moved them up to 12th from 15th. Their good GD could see them grab 9th should other results go their way and they beat Preston at home. Could be a much better pay out for finishing 9th! I'm actually chuffed that we've finished ahead of them, as they are a bloody good side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted May 3, 2019 Admin Report Share Posted May 3, 2019 12 minutes ago, Northern Red said: The Brentford game is now off, and they've been awarded a 1-0 win. Bolton's rearranged Championship game versus Brentford will now not take place and the Bees will be given three points on the basis of a 1-0 victory. The match was scheduled to take place on Saturday, 27 April but was called off 16 hours before kick-off as players refused to play over unpaid wages. Unable to confirm that adequate safety personnel will be in place, Bolton were given a prohibition notice. The EFL said Bolton were now guilty of misconduct and will be disciplined.

fanjita Posted May 3, 2019 Report Share Posted May 3, 2019 Just imagine if the matches versus Forest and Brentford had any bearing on Promotion or relegation . Either of them may have needed to beat Bolton to stay up or get to the playoffs, what a fiasco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EFL have had it easy really - also with the 9pts deduction for B'ham which realistically hasn't had any real impact as they weren't going to go up so they've in essence had a right result.
