If the threat of relegation is removed then it makes playing the final games of the season pointless. Personally I'm amazed there is even talk of playing these games but I suppose money and power talks.
There is no way now teams can be relegated.....the premier league efl etc would be sued and clubs argue the following things
1) cant relegate if all teams dont have level playing field....and this isnt possible if they play neutral grounds or season just stopped
2) potential to go bust due to loss of income + relegation costs
3) wider impact on community - redundencies
4) playing squad issues re June 30th contract expiring
The ONLY option, is to promote teams within automatic promotion positions and have largely leagues next season with higher relegation places at the end of 2021 season.....but again leagues would get sued by the likes of Fulham BCFC due to their opportunities for promotion being taken out of their hands.....it is a 38/46 game season after all...and again means that there is inconsistencies.....imagine if Fulham's last 10 games were against botton 10 sides....would be grossly unfair and, dare I say it, illegal?
Only outcome for me is to scrap the season....with I suppose the argument that those in CL placings get the roles next season.....however that is a contradiction of what I said earlier.
Scrap the season, it never happened, awful I know but I believe equality for ALL teams is THE most important thing for football.
The ONLY thing I could suggest would be teams who are REASONABLY certain to get promoted or win trophies I.e Liverpool (cant think of anyone else) get award promotion/title.....but in old law terms must be within (or without) reasonable doubt.
And no this doesnt include Leeds.....because they bottle it every year anyway.
