"The FA has asked leagues at Steps 3-6 to consult with clubs over what should happen if the 2020/21 season is curtailed. The consultation is only the first stage in the process of making a final decision - it is not a formal vote."
Would you not have thought this would have been decided before the season started

I cannot believe this wasn’t decided before the season started.

Indeed.
It's not an unlikely scenario, so you'd have hoped they had agreed some kind of plan or contingency.
The clubs will obviously want to continue as long as possible with fans allowed to attend, but if, or as soon as that is taken away, then without any financial support, then it would only be a matter of time before another suspension or curtailment ensues.

What do the FA actually do? They're absolutely useless at every aspect of their job.
I continue to be amazed at their lack of competence. Which is quite an achievement, as I already expect them to be utterly incompetent.

Ps. Wait 'till Andy sees this. I hope he's sitting down when he reads it.

Cabinet to Churchill
"You know this war thing we're in, what should we do if they send planes over here?"

"Dunno. Never really thought about that. Let's ask the RAF if they've got any ideas"
