The Middle Borough statement has a change of direction in it regarding the sale of the stadium. If we were found of no wrongdoing by the EFL why are the EFL letting them pursue us with the sale of the stadium? It doesn’t make sense.

Because the tail can’t wag the dog, so the EFL are as impotent as limp-d*ck Larry.

If only the EFL had a spine and had said from the outset to it's member clubs:

The punishment for failing FFP/P&S IS the punishment.
As per our clear rules on points deductions, fines etc

There is no avenue for other members to start suing each other as additional punishment. This is not allowed

 

That should be in the EFL rule book

 

If you murder a postman, you get sent to prison for life. That's the punishment

The people who didn't get their post delivered that day don't get to line up and punch you in the face too

Are we allowed to say Collusion now

It does seem like the EFL's desire to"make an example of someone" over FFP has the convenience of being the club of someone who rattled the EFL and avoiding the action taken against them by a member club...

...it's really inconvenient that Derby have fought their position to the best of their ability and the wrongdoing that they've been able to demonstrate is limited and not without raising problematic questions about the EFL's governance. So for the EFL it's now a case of exploiting the weakness of being in administration.

I don't understand this

The Boro fan is disputing that Boro's claim for compensation is "massive" - i.e. the £40m-odd that has been reported - saying that that's been discredited.
Nixon is saying that the information he has heard from his source is that it is a substantial claim, and that he trusts that his source is accurate.

Not directed at Heather Wheeler per se, but it’s high time that our politicians stopped asking for meetings and started dictating to the EFL. Obviously that needs coming from a higher authority, like the Sports Minister/DCMS.

It's pretty much all they can do though.

Short of the government actually forcing something to happen, which in a democracy is very rare (and almost certainly a good thing)

The MPs don't have a lot of power over this, just a very visible position and ultimately the decision to reform football governance, but that is way to far away to help us.
