The Championship season is set to resume on 20 June, more than three months after it was suspended because of the coronavirus pandemic.

 

The EFL said the date was "provisional" and "subject to the strict proviso that all safety requirements and government guidance is met".

 

There are 108 matches remaining, plus the play-off semi-finals and final.

As long as Leeds keep the momentum they had before all this started I'll be happy.

The rest will have done them the world of good with Bieslas style!

Season-ticket holders at Championship clubs will be able to watch their team's remaining regular-season games online, the EFL has announced.

 

Access, via the iFollow service, will be determined by the club with which the supporter holds the season ticket.

 

It "may be in lieu of a refund or part of a wider package as determined by each individual club".

 

The arrangement includes any of the 30 regular-season games involving their club being shown by Sky Sports.

 

None of the remaining 108 games will be shown on free-to-air television, while watching a stream of an individual Championship fixture via iFollow will cost a non-season ticket holder £10.

Pep Clotet will leave his position as Birmingham City head coach at the end of the season.

 

The Spaniard, 43, has been allowed to leave the Championship club to "explore other coaching opportunities".

Stoke City manager Michael O'Neill has tested positive for Covid-19 after the latest round of testing on Monday.

Matty Fryatt is suing Nottingham Forest after he claims the club mismanaged the injury which ended his career.

He did spend the vast majority of his career here injured and didn't really do anything afterwards. It wouldn't surprise me that much unfortunately if there was something that was the clubs fault.

Businessman Paul Elliott is the new owner and chairman of Charlton Athletic after his consortium completed their takeover of East Street Investments.

 

ESI bought the Addicks from previous owner Roland Duchatelet in January.

 

Tahnoon Nimer and Matt Southall, who were at the forefront of that deal, later fell out and they will no longer be involved with the Championship club.

West Brom and Fulham both struggling today!

 

Yet all the teams at the bottom end of the table either won or managed a draw. Another win from Wigan! They were dead and buried 6 games ago but they’ve went on quite a run winning four out of their last five and not conceding!

Also 12th are 3 points behind 6th! It’s going to be incredibly close

Leeds also getting beat from Cardiff 2-0! Anytime Leeds have a chance of putting themselves into a good position they somehow seem to f*** it up! I still dislike Cardiff with the whole Sala business so would prefer them staying down!

Surely Leeds couldn't f*** it up again?

 

 

As is often the case, Leeds created far more chances that the opposition but couldn't convert, Bamford even managed to block one of hims team mates shots on the line! If they continue to play like that they should be fine.

 

Leeds v Fulham and WBA v Brentford this weekend, will show whether there's much of a race or not. I hope Brentford can win on Friday and put the pressure on the top 2.

 

Same here, Brentford are my second tier team. Love watching the BMW excel upfront!

A technical issue hit the streaming of Championship games, prompting some fans to miss the start of the first matches back after the coronavirus pandemic.

 

With games having to be played behind closed doors, the English Football League enabled clubs to stream them.

 

Fans expressed frustration on social media after being unable to log in to some clubs' iFollow service.

 

The EFL said the service was restored within 15 minutes and apologised to fans "for the inconvenience caused".

 

An EFL spokesperson said: "We unfortunately experienced a small disruption at the start of today's 3pm fixtures that affected approximately eight clubs.

 

"The issue was a result of an overload on servers at our streaming partners who resolved the matter within 15 minutes of the kick-off and supporters were then able to enjoy coverage of their respective matches. "

Warnock has replaced Woodgate :arrr:

Feel sorry for Woodgate.

 

I always had a tiny soft spot for Middlesbrough but hopefully they go down now

Would have thought they'll stay up now with that change. A change Barnsley might have caught Woodgate's side. Woodgate was on a hiding to nothing with far too much pressure, but bringing through some academy lads the only thing he's done with any success.
