    There is no rule that abandoned games should be replayed with the score at 0 - 0.

    There is a long and consistent precedence for that - and it would be very surprising if the EFL had decided anything different - but the 'rule' is that every abandoned match should be assessed on its own merits.

    Yes, the EFL statement seemed to rely on precedent rather than rules, saying it was aiming for consistency with other abandoned games. Hard to envisage another outcome, best not to get too distracted by it.

    So you mean the majority of posters are talking bollocks? Who'd have thought it.

    They're probably the same people who, when we were playing badly and had some awful decisions go against us, said we didn't deserve any better because we were crap.

    Okay so they’ve gone with the precedent and assessed it on its merits. We can argue semantics all day, we still need to get over it.

    If it were the other way around we’d be lapping it up.

    Absolutely ridiculous they need to be fined at least they've cheated and won, gaining an advantage.

    Well done Tan!

    There is a way to increase rain https://now.northropgrumman.com/maki...-manipulation/

    But they cheated by deliberately making no attempt to clear the water from the pitch and in fact adding to it.

    Everyone knows if the rules were the points are awarded to the winning team, there would have been significantly more effort, so they were cheating.

    It's bad Karma, hopefully, they'll lose half their players to injury and get relegated!

    City supporters who purchased tickets for the originally scheduled fixture will be able to claim a free replacement for the newly-arranged date.

    Supporters who are unable to make the new fixture, will be eligible for a full refund of their match ticket.
