Would be interested to hear everyone's thoughts about this...
From: https://youtu.be/XS77MVOjq7Q?si=-mXNMpc0Eg8BNdQ5
The Scunthorpe v Wealdstone game had to eventually be abandoned after a Wealdstone player suffered a nasty injury and his teammates all refused to play on, citing mental health. They were also 2-1 down at the time and didn't have any subs left.
Were Wealdstone in the right? Even if they were, I feel that if an abandonment is caused by a team refusing to play on, the opposition team should be awarded three points. The game should only be rescheduled if the abandonment is out of everyone's control (i.e bad weather).
Thoughts?

Think it should be careful where teams would be able to walk off the pitch with no real punishment.
Abusive language (racism/homophobic/etc.) and severe injury (such as Eriksen/Muamba) are reasonable examples. They should NEVER have continued that Euros game when Eriksen went down.
Now, the added context of no more subs and losing makes things feel a bit iffy. But would need to know the full story there to see if such a theory is correct.
