One suggestion to decide the league - average points per game

As follows

So, divide the number of points you have got now by the games you have played, then multiply that by the number of games you have got left. Add that on to your existing points for your final total.

Can anyone produce an EFL table and show where this would leave us if it was to happen. ??

Table would be exactly the same as everyone has played the same number of games so it is mathematically impossible for anyone to go up or down.
