Bolton have got history of not playing when they don't want to, and got away with it so probably think they can do as they want.
Martin, it is interesting to see that the clubs have now openly said that they would be looking to start the new season on 12th September.I remember saying a few weeks ago that my friend who works at Scunthorpe on the playing side had been told to prepare for a 12th September start.You told me that my source was incorrect as no decision had been made.That may well have been the case but obviously the Scunny chairman knew something when he told my friend to prepare for that start date.
SM, I don't think you get the fact that because the EFL is a members organisation it is not fit for purpose. While you have one McAnthony it has problems, and it has more than one all looking after their own ends. It needs a complete overhaul, a new constitution administered by a totally independent administration not connected with any of the clubs directly. it will not happen as too many have their own agenda to follow, and too much money for the few in the existing driving seat. Nobody wants any club to suffer at all, but the spivs and charlatans need to be got rid of out of the game completely, basically it needs government intervention and shaking up from top to bottom.

Are you sure I challenged you in that fashion? But I was right at the time, and I still am as it's still not been determined. Even now there's a reluctance to start with the date proposed, there was then too. And it's the same argument now as it was then, an argument raised at the EFL meet that had taken place, i.e. a mid-September date means bringing players back from furlough and starting a season when no paying supporters are allowed in.
McAnthony is a total shit head, someone will punch him one day
