National League clubs are set to vote on whether to end the season early.

The campaign has been suspended indefinitely due to the coronavirus outbreak and no games have been played since March 14 in the fifth tier.

Tonight the National League board has come up with a proposal - which they are recommending all clubs in the top three divisions (National League, National League North and National League South) approve.

That proposal is to cancel all fixtures up to and including April 25.

If approved, then another vote will determine how the leagues are settled in the North and South divisions and then the National League.

No news of the decision is expected until next week.

The EFL today announced its intention to complete the Championship, League One and League Two campaigns when safe to do so, with the games played behind-closed-doors.
