If an away victory is going to be seen as worth more when sorting out promotion in this situation, Why are they worth no more than three points in any other situation? It looks like a reason for a visit to the courts to me.
On this afternoon’s Talksport it stated that Wycombe would be promoted
Every game whether home or away is played all season for three points a game, so why suddenly are three points away more than three points at home? If they made it four points for an away game throughout the season I would have no problem, it would probably encourage more attacking football, why bring in another theory when straight points per game would suffice. It is an off the field idea there is no need of, or is it they just fancy giving Oxford a leg up instead of Wycombe? Whatever system is used, all I can see is trouble in the courts if any promotion or relegation is implemented. As the governing body I would void the season in the EFL, and as the keeper of the competition take my chances in any court case.

I'm sure McAnthony has already said he will start legal proceedings if that happensHe’s only pissed off because he knows he’ll lose ToneyI assume that there won’t be any play off matches so what difference would it make to Peterbro whether they finished seventh?

If they do PPG or leave it as it is now, then others behind them and in the relegation zones will be upset. If they commit to finishing behind closed doors, they may not be able to do it in a reasonable time frame and contracts and TV rights become a bigger issue.The authorities have to come up with a solution knowing it cannot please everybody.
Not sure how they will cook the books in the Championship but any kind of formula is going to see Dingles and Luton come down and looks pretty clear for Charlton. Not fearful really about any of those next season. Good clubs but not huge clubs. Then again, Sunderland have hardly dominated League One these last few seasons.
I have stated before, I would void the season with no relegation or promotion, I am happy with our position we were in and had hopes we were at last getting it together, and fancied our chances of scraping in the playoffs. But that was only my opinion at the time and a guess, which everything else is if they start adjusting points per game other than the points already won in the season. How does any mathematical statistic take into account scores like Fulham 0 Barnsley 3 sorry Tyke.

They’re not saying it’s worth more, they’re adopting a system that considers your PPG average both at home and away to give a more realistic forecast outcome. If anything they’re saying that away games are worth less as Portsmouth, with a lot of away games left, will be predicted to get fewer points as a consequence of their poor away record.
