Morning all.

Yeah, thanks for having me on and to be able to give my opinion on what's going on.

Basically, what it was yesterday, we knew we had the big EFL meeting today, and everyone's been talking for the last 10 days about League 1, League 2, or voting to cancel, finish, end the season.

And it's been going on in the press.

Stories have been leaked left, right, and center.

And that's not something we've been told all along.

We've been preparing to get back to playing and finishing the season out.

That's been the EFL stance all along when it was safe to do so.

And as things suddenly started to improve and we're told football could be back in June, suddenly we're faced with this, well, there is going to be no football.

So a few clubs obviously decided to have a conversation yesterday.

I got a phone call.

I was invited to join a Zoom conversation.

There were six of us on the call.

We wanted to have a chat about basically what was going to happen in the meeting.

All the clubs on that phone call, including clubs who aren't really involved in a promotion race at the moment,

wanted to finish the season.

It's been their plan all along for their fans to play out the nine games, finish the season as safely as possible.

You know, if there's playoffs, if there's three games.

When I spoke to Rick Parry about two and a half, three weeks ago, Rick made it very clear to me the EFL stance has always been the same.

We want to finish the leagues.
