Irish Premiership: 2019-20 campaign to end after clubs fail to reach unanimous decision


Linfield sit top of the league after 31 gamesThe 2019-20 Irish Premiership season is set to end after the league's 12 clubs failed to reach a unanimous decision on how to resume the campaign. The NI Football League board will decide on Monday night whether to end the season using a mathematical formula, or use the positions as they stand after 31 games. The Irish Cup is still expected to resume at the end of July, with the winners being awarded the third and final European berth. The Irish FA, who run the cup competition, has agreed to provide Covid-19 testing for the clubs. In this scenario should Coleraine win the cup, the final European spot will be awarded to Crusaders on account of their third-placed league finish.
