Yani P Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Summary.. The report makes 47 recommendations, which are summed up in 10 major points: The government should create a new independent regulator (IREF) IREF should oversee financial regulation in football IREF should establish new owners' and directors' tests A new corporate governance code should be set up Equality, diversity and inclusion plans should be mandatory for all clubs Supporters should be consulted on all key off-field decisions through a 'shadow board' Key items of club heritage should be protected by a 'golden share' for fans There should be more support from the Premier League to the pyramid through a solidarity transfer levy, paid by Premier League clubs on buying players from overseas or other top-flight clubs Women's football should be treated equally and given its own review Stakeholders should work to increase protection of welfare of players leaving the game kevinhectoring and TigerTedd 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexxxxx Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Derby crop up a couple of times in the report - basically suggests we are/were badly managed, partly due to a lack of functioning boardroom. Not as scathing as Id hoped about the efl but does say that the p&s scheme doesn't work properly and that theres a conflict of interest in its regulatory powers, the report suggests that they don't investigate enough and that the club appointed board doesn't work properly.

Nah let's just promote women football Shouldn't really be either or though is it? The report is disappointing in not tackling some of the problems that distort the game especially in the EFL. That's a very separate issue to proper governance of the women's game. Then I remembered the report was written by politicians, so you're right "promotion of women's football is a good thing, so mention that and not some of the stuff we're not going to change" Overall I think it's not awful and some positive things in there, but, it's not really going to fix the game either. And we need to remember this form of recommendation is going to get watered down over fancy lunches and "have a chat with us in my directors box" before anything approaching legislation is drafted.

Those are the two main issues there' s a conflict of interest between their regulatory powers and kowtowing to the likes of Gibson. Plus they are regulating fundamntally an unfair system in the first place ie FFP makes no sense when the likes of Fulham (ahem) can have a wage bill of £100 million and that is all fine and dandy because Sky are paying for it.

What has the financing of PPS purchase by at third party got to do with Derby leave alone anyone else? So two irrelevant points right there. And how is a dispute leading to a penalty of £100k relevant to anything? What about Leeds £200k penalty? So everything there is either irrelevant or inaccurate or both.
