Which is the real Gareth Ainsworth?
Is that the character that lives within you on a daily basis, Gareth?
I'm looking forward to seeing the guitar come out in just a moment as well, Gareth, depending on how this conversation goes.
We've had Joey Barton on this morning.
I don't know if you saw him.
I don't know if you saw him, but it's obviously been an eventful 24 hours or so for the EFL.
For those who are just joining us for the first time today, I want to remind them of the situation regarding the league table as it stands in League One, which, of course, saw...
You in eighth position.
It's been an extraordinary season for Wickham.
Let's say that right from the outset.
There you were in eighth position, having played 34 games.
So you've got two games in hand on Sunderland and one on the rest of the sides in those playoff places.
Now the EFL are proposing, and this is to be voted on next week, if the season doesn't carry on and we just have the playoff situation, then it goes on an unweighted points per game basis, which would then see this situation where you would leap from eighth
all the way up into third position so I guess and I don't want to put words in your mouth Gareth I guess it would be in Wickham's favour if the season was voided as we know it would you accept that?
Well, that's you being very clear there, Gareth, that you want, as a football man, to finish the season and play on.
We need 51% of clubs to vote in favour of continuing for it to be passed next week.
So will your club, Wickham, can you tell us that this morning, Gareth?
Your club will be voting to play on the season.
But some clubs, on the other hand, Gareth, will be affected if they are forced to be relegated, like Tramien.
We heard from Nicola Paglios yesterday saying, how can it be fair we are robbed of a chance to keep our place in League One, but other clubs are given the chance to take it?
