They'll stick to the existing fixtures and one club will finish a week before the others. The reason for all kicking off simultaneously is to prevent teams mutually benefiting from (say) a draw when they know both will succeed. That is highly unlikely to happen with another 11 fixtures to be played.UPTHEPORT wrote:How they going to get round one club missing last round of games surely that puts that club at disadvantage gate money and other clubs know what they need to do if it's in a promotion or relegation battle
Also, the idea that a club finishing the week before is going to do anything but play their best if they have any possibility of promotion or relegation is a little far fetched.
The only issue is if a particular goal difference target is needed, and even then that supposes teams in those close battles aren't already trying their best to achieve it.
Also, it didn't stop the Premier League letting Man U v Bournemouth happen midweek after the last round of fixtures in 2016 with Europa League qualification on the line.
