Could be a very long wait I,m afraid.
EFL just announced. Football off until Thursday 30th April......so next scheduled game is Wycombe at home on the following Sunday 3rd May...unless we get another announcement....
If it did start again on this date with 8 games for most clubs left some have more so 4 weeks in reality to complete end of May, any further delays will lead to encroaching on next season creating all sorts of challenges and problems but in the grand scheme of things its probably way down most people's priorities.
2020 / 2021 can start in October and extend to June 2021 ?
What is most worrying is the players whose contracts expire 30 June 2020 should it take longer than then to finish the season. Some may already have pre contract agreements in place effective 1 July 2020. Not sure of the contractual position with the loanees either.
Bit of a mess ..........

Distancing measures introduced by government and being practiced in supermarkets etc:- could be enforced for up to the end of the year nobody knows we're this is going or when it will end, if and when football and sports return can't see it being the same as when it was shut down.
Lots of work on the admin front and a few rules will need amending.
Pre-contract agreements aren't worth owt!!
Only asked to do one in 8 years. Spoke to the FA and EFL about where to send it to; still waiting for an answer!!

What’s your take on the contracts that expire 30 June if the season extends into July ?

Pre contracts not worth anything ?
Windass ?
Crooks ?
Mingoia ?
Which July Twenty Eight 2020 or 2021 this is serious **** I think in the coming weeks football authorities will have some alarming issues to deal with unfortunately I can see a lot of footballers being out of work.
if that case goes the same way for sporting events then this season may carry on till 2021 before it gets back underway just to finish it. for supporters it will go two ways. one that they,ll watch any form of football and others will have lost the habit for life. at the moment i,m bored to death and it isn,t like summer where you are used to lack of football anyway. in history football has only been around a relatively short time and people must have found other ways on their 1 day off a week to amuse themselves.
Aware of the Rangers "issue" but never saw the paperwork
Not aware of anything with P
The only one I was asked to "sort" sat in a drawer for 6 months as the FA and EFL said such agreements were of no interest to them. They couldn't enforce them and it would be a private matter between the 2 parties
That's the uncharted area which would cause the main issues, hence the thoughts are to conclude the season, if at all possible prior to then
Will that be possible or sensible?? No idea but reducing the risks and closing as much down as possible seems the only solution at present.
Could bring the Sean Mc thread back up
Steady away, which is a massive help to the club with no other regular income
Not all of the 'Prima Donnas' are bad......

I've not thought of that Kiwi but to me it has been a dreadful season, to start with the problems at Bury and Bolton caused a great deal of uncertainty over League 1 and how many teams were going to be releagated and then when Bury finally went I felt very sorry for them as we had been in similiar a position to them on several occasions. The season started without Billy Kee and then realized that he would probaly not return, then McConville was seriouly injured and, whatever you think about him, we are not the same team without him. Finally Coronavirus comes and ruins what was already a difficult season. So yes I am missing the football and feeling pretty down.
