As much as that makes sense why should the EFL be forced to
change or move its finals when they’ve been agreed years in
advance in order to cater for a final between 2 clubs who
disowned the competition just over a fortnight ago?

As I said previously, 'money' talks ---it will be interesting to
see how much is involved, however, I don't think that we will
ever know.
I am in total agreement that, should they wish to use Wembley,
it is the Champions League Final which should change date and
not the EFL play-off finals.

Seems to be looking like Portugal as the UK government won't
back down on allowing sponsors and general UEFA bigwigs to enter
without quarantine measures.
To me that would be the best outcome. I never thought it should
be in England, but it was very clear it couldn't be in Turkey,
so it is looking like a sensible compromise might be reached.

While I would love to see such a high profile game in my home
city, I dread to think what the state of the pitch would be like
after a season of egg-chasing all over it. I am just hoping
there will be a playable pitch for our return next season.
It seems that the final is to be played in Porto at the splendid
Estadio do Dragao. Porto is a wonderful city that I've had the
pleasure of visiting several times. Not much can beat Frango
Peri Peri washed down with Super Bock.

Sensible if the supporters are viewed as the least important

Oh, I think it's very nice of UEFA to help the ailing airline
industry to get back on its feet.[emoji6]

Was never going to be in the UK as UEFA were insistent that
their bigwigs and sponsors were allowed in without quarantine.
Portugal must have agreed to that, but it would have been
political suicide for the UK government to agree.

Hardly political suicide going off what has been going on for
the last 12+ months - sorry. Our government agreeing to this
would havent even been in the top 10 misgivings they have done
in this horrible period

I don't think you've spelled corruptions quite right.
Strangely it all seems to have gone down well with the voters.
