Amazing they have put the finals on at the same time. The league shouting themselves in the foot again.

Who's going to bother paying to watch it except the diehard fans of the playoff teams?

Plenty of people would be interested in watching both. I would for a start especially if I have money riding on it. Bradford Park Avenue had 40000 watch the stream of their last game before lockdown, admittedly for free, but the play off finals would be popular.

Did they need to buy the tv rights? I wonder how many of those would have paid a small fee to watch.

I'm guessing because of the situation the league allowed them to do it. I doubt we will see the figures for the play-offs, but they should at least have the common sense to have the finals on at different times to allow people to watch both should they want to.

I definitely won't be putting any money in the League's coffers.

Pretty sure it'll be on my "amended" Firestick, included in my extortionate subscription of £30 a year.
