Manx football season extended

17 clubs voted for extension, 10 voted against

Footballers on the Island will get to make up for lost time during lockdown because the 2020/2021 season is being extended.

Recently, clubs and the Junior Football League were asked to vote on whether the Isle of Man football season should finish at a later date of 30 June.

The suggestion has passed but not unanimously.

Seventeen clubs voted for the extension and ten voted against.

The IOMFA is planning a return to football following today's (Thurs) government media briefing.
