The Premier League held its latest shareholders meeting on Wednesday, continuing talks over plans for the rest of the season.
The top flight is set to return on June 17, three days before the Championship gets the ball rolling again.
But there is still plenty to work out between the Premier League's 20 clubs.
And one of the items still to be agreed is what should happen in the event the season has to be curtailed.
It's believed the bottom three, and even some of the clubs above the dotted line would strongly oppose relegation based on a points-per-game system.
And that has led to concerns from clubs like Nottingham Forest, Leeds United and West Brom, who are chasing promotion in the Championship.
The Premier League would need FA permission to scrap relegation, but there are still concerns a path from the Championship could be blocked if the season had to be stopped again.
Though, according to The Telegraph, there is good news in that department for the Championship's promotion hopefuls.
The report claims top tiersides have agreed the issue of potentially scrapping relegation should now be moved off the table, unless a second shutdown prompts them to revisit it.
That's news Forest will welcome with the Reds currently in fifth and very much on course for a playoff spot.
