France were the latest nation, following the Netherlands, to call an end to the 2019/2020 football season following government intervention. Three proposals were put forward as to how best to determine the final placings in Ligue 1.
The French top tier will announce champions with two teams likely to be relegated. The three proposals are: 1) Points-per-game system as was used to terminate the Championship, League One and League Two in Scotland; 2) The table following the last full round of fixtures when every team had played 27 games; 3) The table at the halfway stage, after 19 matches.
We have looked to see how the Scottish Premiership would look and where Hearts and Hibs would finish if the SPFL was decided on the points total of every team after they had played 19 fixtures.
