The key dates which could impact Middlesbrough, Leeds, West Brom, Nottingham Forest and Championship rivals
Professional football in the UK has been suspended until at least April 3 following the outbreak of COVID-19 - but what happens next?
We take a closer look at some of the key dates which could impact when decisions could be made.
Tuesday, March 17 – UEFA board meeting
After postponing the Champions League and Europa League, UEFA will hold an emergency board meeting early next week.
The governing body has invited representatives of its 55 member associations, together with the boards of the European Club Association and the European Leagues and a representative of FIFPro, to attend the meeting by video conference.
They will discuss European football's response to the outbreak as well as domestic and European competitions, including Euro 2020.
If Euro 2020 is postponed, Premier League and EFL clubs will have more time to complete their seasons.
Wednesday, March 18 – Football League meeting
Football League clubs will meet on Wednesday to consider their own response to the coronavirus outbreak.
The Premier League will then hold an emergency meeting on Thursday to discuss plans for the remainder of the season.
Friday, April 3 – Earliest ressuption date
The EFL season could resume early next month, though many believe the suspension will be extended.
Blackburn are set to host Leeds United in the Championship in a televised Friday fixture.
Saturday, May 2 – When the season should have ended
Championship clubs were scheduled to finish their regular seasons at the start of May, yet it seems inevitable that date will be pushed back.
Boro were due to travel to Sheffield Wednesday on the final day of the campaign.
Monday, May 25 – Championship play-off final
The Championship play-off final was set to be played at the end of May, yet there are now doubts if it will even take place.
Fulham, Brentford, Nottingham Forest and Preston currently occupy the play-off positions, with Leeds and West Brom in the automatic promotion places.
Friday, June 12 – Euro 2020 start date
This summer’s tournament is also in serious doubt with some reports claiming that organisers have already been told to stop preparing.
The tournament will be discussed at UEFA’s board meeting on Tuesday.
