Bolton Wanderers v Brentford, 03 May 2019

This game was originally due to be played on 27 April 2019 but did not take place due to the Bolton Wanderers players taking strike action due to unpaid wages. On 3 May 2019 (two days before the scheduled end of the season and with Bolton Wanderers unable to stage the game in the following week on safety grounds), the EFL decided that the game should be awarded to Brentford as a 1-0 win. The official EFL statement read: "Following the decision taken by Bolton Wanderers’ Safety Advisory Group (SAG) to issue a Prohibition Notice preventing Tuesday’s rearranged Sky Bet Championship fixture with Brentford from taking place, the EFL will not be asking that the game is played at a future date. "There is no provision under EFL Regulations to direct Clubs to play at a later date than four days past the conclusion of the season and, as a result, it has been determined that Brentford will be awarded the three points on the basis of a 1-0 victory. "As a consequence, Bolton Wanderers is now deemed to be guilty of misconduct by the EFL which will result in disciplinary proceedings against the Club being taken at an appropriate time. "The decision to award the victory to Brentford is taken under Regulation 33.2 and is independent of the proceedings referred to above."
