Voted this afternoon to curtail the season.
Coventry and Rotherham up, Tranmere, Southend and Bolton down. (BBC sport)

End of L2 also confirmed.

Yep the same Bolton who can count Oldham & Salford as their local rivals next season, well we enjoy trips to Anfield and OT.

I know we shouldn't gloat but :lol:

Relegation from League 2 not yet decided, Stevenage bottom, but they could yet be reprieved because Macclesfield have been hit with a new disciplinary charge, relating to the late payment of wages, which could see them down.

League One:
Promoted - Coventry and Rotherham
Play Offs - Wycombe, Oxford, Fleetwood and Portsmouth
Relegated - Tranmere, Southend and Bolton

League Two:
Promoted - Swindon, Crewe and Plymouth
Play Offs - Cheltenham, Exeter, Northampton and Colchester
Relegated - Stevenage (depending on further points deduction for Macclesfield)

Hope Fleetwood & Joey and Cheltenham & Duff win the play offs, but also McGreal at Colchester to keep an eye on. Sunderland 'til I die will be entertaining next series.

I'd say Wycombe are the big winners. 9th weren't they? In pretty average form over last couple of months and suddenly up to 3rd and one home win away from a play off final. Think Rotherham still had to play most of the top teams so they'll be loving this decision too

Fair outcome tbh. Interesting that pretty much everyone had the preferred outcomes that would have feathered their own nest the best....pretty much only Port Vale come out with credit on that score.

Will now eagerly await the way that the bookies will feather their own nest on my end of season accumulators.....have already had to deal with inconsistencies between bet365 and skybet on the scottish leagues...

I think to be fair Bradford deserve a mention as well, not sure which, but a chairman of a League Two who were in the top 7 praised Bradford for putting their own ambitions aside for promotion, to vote to end the league due to the pandemic.

Yeah, knew it wasn’t all of them which is why I said pretty much. We can all be closet Bradford and Port Vale fans from now on (for our lower league allegiances...;))

Peterborough in the play-off places when games were halted, in form and with some very winnable looking fixtures to come. Not a fan of their chairman but surely he'll have a strong view on this and perhaps (this time) with some justification.
