STEVENAGE have hit out at plans to follow through with relegation if the season is decided off the pitch.

Alex Revell's side are currently bottom of the League Two table. 

But chairman Phil Wallace feels a mathematical formula should not be used to decide who goes down. 

"There is absolutely no integrity whatsoever in using a mathematical formula to expel a club from the EFL," said Wallace.

"That is unjust and wholly wrong.

"There is no integrity in the EFL Board ignoring the overwhelming vote by League Two clubs that told them they didn't want to see any expulsion from the EFL by a points per game formula.

"As the rules stand, we should play it or void it.

"We can introduce a rule change for PPG for promotion and play-offs, I have no problem with that but it's wholly wrong if that artificial formula is then used to relegate a club that has a reasonable chance of surviving by playing.

"That is a completely different, and unacceptable, step to take. There is a simple solution with integrity - bring more teams into the EFL from the National League to increase the product."

Southend United will also be relegated from League One unless the season is declared null and void.
