If some disaster happened and the Grand National had to be stopped after 3 miles 2 furlongs would they void the race or declare the leader the winner?
Wimbledon Final, it's two sets all, Federer and Murray. Some disaster happens. Federer won the first two sets 6-0 6-1 Andy has fought back 6-7 6-7 in two thrilling tie breaks. Federer is declared the winner 24-15 on games won ……….? Right …………. that'll go down well with gin and tonics.
Points Per Game is the only vaguely sensible way to decide a season once it has reached its end without resolution. It will show which were the best and worst teams over that amount of time. But that doesn't make it fair or right. Equally a football league season reaches an end. Games cannot be completed by any date even close to the season's natural end. The season is crying out to be declared void. Every other level of football in the country has been declared void. Why should the top bits be any different? It is one game, different as Jersey Bulls may seem from Leeds United.

We can all think what we like about auto promotion in the event of a curtailment of the season, but the rumours come out of the Hawthornes is that we shall vote to play on . Good on them I say, if the vote does go in favour of us going up it will note be our vote that decided it. We have been nothing but respectful al the way though this virus and I believe we have shown the true spirit of what our great club is about.
