[QUOTE="TRF_Olyy, post: 998282, member: 34990"] I just realised, in the Euros thread: Championship 20/21 is due to start early September Premiership 19/20 is due to restart mid August, with 9 rounds left that's a bare minimum end date of the regular season of October 17th. WTF are Sarries going to do for that month when they're in both leagues? They can't drop out of the prem because that's 9 games where the opposition get a walkover, which isn't fair on the sides that actually played them (plus I doubt Sarries would be happy to lose the increased crowds/sponsorship/exposure from the prem) - but then they can't join the Championship 6 weeks late for the same reasons (6 games where the opposition get a walkover on them, when in all likelihood Sarries will be comfortably the best team in the league). What a car crash. [/QUOTE]
