From Premiership champions Celtic to League Two side Brechin City, clubs across the SPFL are being asked the same question by the Hampden hierarchy.
All 42 member clubs have been contacted by the powers that be to try and throw together plans for if the season has to be called to a halt once more.
The previous questionnaire sent to clubs was pushed back but now bosses are set to go back for fresh impetus. It’s been a season filled with Covid drama, starting on weekend one with breaches of protocol by those at Aberdeen and Celtic.
Since then, several teams up and down the leagues have been impacted by positive tests one way or another.
That’s not even documenting the end of 2019/20 drama which had the like of Celtic, Dundee United, Raith Rovers and Cove Rangers crowned champions, whilst Hearts, Partick Thistle and Stranraer were relegated.
SPFL Chief Executive Neil Doncaster has already got contingency support from some clubs: “When the SPFL rules were drawn up many years ago, no one could have foreseen the impact which Covid-19 would have on our game.
“The fact that our rules did not expressly cover the situation where a season must be curtailed with a number of matches remaining to be played caused a great deal of uncertainty and delay in reaching a resolution last season. No one wants to see that repeated.
“Many of our clubs support the principle of drawing up a set of protocols long before we get to the situation where league positions understandably influence the individual approach of clubs to these difficult situations.
“However, the proposal to allow the board a clearly specified and limited degree of authority to take action if we are unable to complete the season did not have sufficient support in the summer.
“Given the ongoing challenges caused to sport worldwide by Covid-19, several clubs have now indicated they have changed their position. The board wishes to establish if a sufficient number of clubs now wish to revisit this issue, so we can significantly reduce the uncertainty and division that arose towards the end of last season.
“Those circumstances were caused by the need to curtail the season, make promotions and relegations and cancel the play-offs, all in a written resolution. As we know, this effectively meant asking members to vote for the relegation of their club and other clubs in circumstances where the season could not be completed, with all the issues this prompted.
“If there is sufficient support to secure an amendment to the SPFL rules, then all clubs will know well in advance of any need to curtail the season what the outcome will be, so far as it concerns league positions, promotion, relegation, play-offs, fees and qualification for UEFA competitions.
“The questionnaire is designed to assist the board in recommending a resolution to member clubs as a means of giving the SPFL Board the express power to deal with any further Covid-19 related disruption to Season 2020/21.”
