I appreciate that everything is up in the air and that some teams will want to try to make a case for promotion this summer but putting that aside for now, if you were a team that is there or thereabouts this season and you watch them promote WBA, Leeds and Fulham, wouldn't that give you a terrific opportunity the following season with 3 bigger teams missing, no relegated PL teams to deal with and an extra 3 League One teams in the division?
Could be a great season to push for promotion. In addition, you would likely go up to a regular sized Premier League in 2021/2, with more money, and the benfit of full gates as crowds would likely be back.
Yes, there is an extra season to get through financially but it would be an amazing opportunity beyond that.
This surely could be part of the sales pitch to those teams that miss out this summer, if the season gets curtailed and promoted teams are 'chosen'.
