Port Vale season is officially over after Football League meeting
Port Vale’s 2019-20 season is now officially over after a Football League meeting on Tuesday.
Both League One and League Two seasons have both been ended early after a formal vote by clubs.
Both tables will be settled on points per game, while promotion, relegation and the play-offs all remain.
Both votes were passed by an “overwhelming majority”, according to the Football League, who also confirmed that the League Two play-off final would be held at Wembley on 29 June.
Under the agreed points-per-game system Swindon Town have been named League Two champions after leapfrogging Crewe Alexandra because the Robins have a game in hand.
The situation at the bottom has been complicated by Macclesfield Town’s FA charge which relates to late payment of wages in March and for “failing to act with utmost good faith in respect of matters with the EFL and for breaching an order, requirement, direction or instruction of the league.” In a statement, the Football League said “due to ongoing disciplinary matters, the final placings cannot yet be confirmed.”
Final Places
As it stands, this is how the League Two promotion, relegation and the play-offs look:
- Promoted: Swindon Town (champions), Crewe Alexandra, Plymouth Argyle
- Play-offs: Cheltenham Town v Northampton Town, Exeter City v Colchester United
- Relegated: Stevenage
