New football league statement expected tomorrow.
Any match involving two sides where the outcome has no bearing on promotion or relegation will be cancelled and the result recorded as 0-0

Sets a terrible precedent. If invading the pitch to get games abandoned happens again then the verdict here is to blame. And I have a feeling it will happen for less justifiable reasons than happened here

Whilst I agree on the football leagues stance that points should be earned on the pitch the overall decision doesn't surprise me. I can't really add to anything that has been said already.

Forget it. It was obvious from day one that this would be the outcome, if we'd been winning then I'd be fecked off but we weren't.
If you've lost bets with Leeds fans don't pay them, argue the season is void as we've been denied 42 minutes of football and tell the twats to take you to court.
Seriously, what is everybodies gripe here? Are you really that bothered about missing 40 minutes of football, if so, what are your thoughts on leaving the match early, or perhaps missing the first 5 minutes of the second half as you finish your pint.

I managed to void the bet with leeds colleagues ... Making out there was a 50 50 chance of us being awarded three points when knowing Actually the chances were remote ,,, tbh a void bet is only fair as if I was leeds I would have felt hard done to if town had been given the points

The right decision.
I'm glad to see most Hudds fans on here agree.
You can stop worrying about it now and start looking forward to your cup finals next season. With a bit of luck you might get a point out of next years fixtures.

We might as well all just pack it in [/quote so at what stage of the game would the FL clowns have deemed sufficient time played to warrant it being a full game ? 48minutes obviously What if they'd invaded after 3 mins or before the game kicked off Totally unfair to Town and the integrity of football FL are clowns

Stupid decision by stupid people. Like Adrian Durham said on way home- a true 'heads gone' decision.
As for any bets with Leeds fans- I wouldn't pay out and to be fair I wouldn't expect them to either had we got the 2 points.

Not surprised by the decision but it would have been different had Blackpool been playing Watford/Bournemouth or any of the teams involved in the play offs.

Ha theres no 'dangerous precedent' been set. Bloody drama queens Lets say Rotherham need a point to stay up last game next season so at 0-0 at half time the fans invade pitch and get it abandoned. No time for replay so what do FL do? Because it concerns relegation they'd probably award points to other side and relegate rotherham. but rotherhams lawyers would rightly be able to point to a legal precident where the FL didn't do that and theyd have a strong case in a law court as a result. Very dangerous precedent set IMO.

This is a good read. Karma I say, for acting like a bunch of big girls because you missed out on 40 minutes of football.

It is a precedent that can be used for any future legal challenges, and judging by the football league's recent legal challenges with mr cellino, they dont do too well when someone actually challenges them rather than what we do and lie down

Meh. Mildly annoying but let's move on. It'll happen again and the FL will probably make a different decision.

The decision was 100% correct and any similar occurrences will have to be judged on their own merits.
Would our fans have been demanding 3 points, if these points would have secured Town the sixth play-off spot?
If so, how unfair that would have been to the team who had actually completed their season in full, and then ended up losing it to Town by a single point, with the chance of landing the £100 million plus, Premiership jackpot.
You could also argue that Town might have been winning the game 5-0 and the football league had ordered a replay, which Town then lost - would that be fair?
So it was a tough decision no matter which way you look at it and I still maintain the F.L.got it 100% correct, given the circumstances.

Very dangerous precedent set IMO. It's not a legal precedent though. I think a lawyer would see it as a precedent in a court of law and argue such, Think the FL would struggle to argue that this game should go down as 0-0 but another game should go down as something else. At the very least they've opened themselves up to all kinds of legal battles.

Blackpool have been GIVEN a point, for not getting their fans off the pitch & play resuming!
