End of season predictions

Post by Tricky Trevor » Sat Mar 21, 2020 11:37 pm

The BBC has published figures from the Euro Club Index.
They reckon that with 75% of the season done they can be accurate.
I think it’s a whole new ball game and nobody can predict how clubs will come back.
Here it is anyway.

They reckon that they can accurately predict the probabilities. Their figures say that Bournemouth have a 50.06% chance of relegation, which I dare say may be right. But they aren't claiming to say which side of the coin flip they will land.

Apart from Burnley being in Europe, I would not argue too much.

Mainly because it is made up.

Amazing - all the so called top six secure European football

When the season kicks off again several first team players might be 'out of contract'. These include Brady, Hendrick, Hart, Lennon and Bardsley. We should have Gudmundsson and Barnes available though.

Will their contracts stipulate that they are contracted until the end of the 2020 season (whenever that is) or will they just end in May/June 2020? Also, if the club have missed several months (maybe a years) income will they be in a position to keep 'out of contract' players on until the season concludes?

I predict there will be an end to the season.

We might not see our games at the grounds, only on TV, but they'll be played alright.

Season's done, across all levels. It'll start again in August or later. The only questions are how they'll determine relegation and promotion or if they'll declare the season null and void.

Whenever next season finally kicks off,we'll still be in the PL that's all that matters.

Exactly.
Don't forget there are loads of amateur leagues and kids leagues and all are on pretty much the same rules and timetables so they'll have to null and void everything right across the board or, and I'm not sure of this, they could be open to legal challenges.

I think the players should play the remaining games as themselves but on FIFA 2020.

Doesn't appear to account for teams being "on the beach" when the get to about 42 points with 5 games to go.
