By 12th September this season, we had already played 10 fixtures. Seven league games, two League Cup games and one EFL Trophy match. Even assuming those secondary cup competitions are suspended for next season, that's still a lot of extra league games to fit in if the season is to finish at the usual time.
Just run next season a bit longer....... sorted.
Well we won't be elegible for the EFL trophy as its for the bottom 2 divisions, so that will be less games for a start.By 12th September this season, we had already played 10 fixtures.

You won't be paying interest in our elite U23 side that we enter then?
In these circumstances, would there be an actual issue with the lower leagues continuing up to (and even during/after) the Euros - very few players will have a clash of interest..Won't be possible because of the Euros.
If the 2020/21 season starts as "normal" then it absolutely has to finish in May.

I know this relates to non-league but the leagues tend to be reasonably aligned for starting so might be light at the end of the tunnel!
Do the Euros have to happen at the same time? I mean, the World Cup in 2022 is happening in winter and that was before “unprecedented times” so they could easily push the euros back a couple of months.Won't be possible because of the Euros.
