What does the last sentence of 4.4 mean?

Exactly what it says on the tin.

However the stadium sale, which was allowed under the rules at the time we was cleared on.

They have the club the all clear to proceed with the sale, the valuation was then questioned.

This is what builds "significant" part of Gibson's claim.

Even if we was found guilty on the last sentence, it's not Boro's place to take action. 

(provided always that only The League shall have the right to bring any action whatsoever for any alleged breach of this requirement).

"We heard an initial application by Middlesbrough FC to intervene in support of EFL’s appeal, which we dismissed. We also heard an application by EFL that we should hear this appeal by way of a de novo hearing, which we rejected on 3 December 2020, and further ruled on an application by EFL to lead new evidence not before the DC, which we rejected on 22 January 2021.

We had originally hoped to conclude this matter somewhat earlier than has proved to be the case, "

Above from the LAP full findings....If Couhig wants to know why our points deduction wasn't last season?? Boro and the EFL are clearly the answer.

From an internet search:

It is common in legal writing to state a general rule and then to
elucidate with more specific examples.  But that creates a negative
pregnant - - an implication that the general rule isn't really so
general.

Suppose I said "No animals shall be allowed on the train, and no cats
or dogs."
You might bring your goldfish on the train, arguing that my no-animal
rule was intended to keep large misbehaving mammals off the train, and
not quiet little fish.

But what if I said ""No animals shall be allowed on the train, and,
without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, no cats or
dogs."

Then since your goldfish is an animal you can't use the "cats or dogs"
clause to argue that goldfish are not banned.

So that's cleared that up then

And who masterminded this breakaway cartel? One Rick Parry. Chairman of EFL, who sponsor Sky. 

You keep saying this, and it doesn't make any sense.

The EFL don't sponsor anyone, nevermind Sky.

Skybet, a company that Sky sold some years ago, sponsor the EFL's football leagues.

Skybet and Sky obviously have a close relationship, judging by their use of Sky broadcasters in their Adverts, but that's by the by.

You could simply define the word animals in  the Definition section of the legal document 

“Animals” shall mean all non human living entities

Is this like the ‘as I was going to St. Ives’ ? 
So you can’t take a cat, dog or goldfish on the train. What about a mouse?

Can I ask a seemingly daft question ?

Why hasn’t arbitration been started by the EFL in the matter of DCFC and MBC ? 

Because Middlesbrough's counsel are not available until May22 according to Mel Morris. This convenient delay meant that from the outset of this season and even before we entered administration, DCFC was locked into the transfer embargoes which were meant to make any fight by DCFC to avoid relegation nigh on impossible. The plan was that by the time of any arbitration hearing we would be a Division One Club and maybe even we would have been liquidated out of existence.

Wayne Rooney and his team continue to thwart the EFL plan for the time being. If DCFC stay up, the EFL prepared press release to be announced by Rick Parry is "The EFL recognises the super human efforts of Wayne Rooney and his team in managing to escape relegation. However, at the same time the EFL must let it be known that we are very disappointed that DCFC remains a Championship Club. The EFL feels it abused its powers to the maximum to prevent this outcome and couldn't have done any more."

If DCFC is relegated the prepared EFL statement is simply "The EFL is extremely pleased that DCFC has been relegated because as Chairman Parry prematurely announced in January this year, Derby deserve to be relegated."

I hope that helps you Jono because I know no more and  cannot help you further.

Couhig in my opinion is in some financial difficulties with Wycombe and is scapegoating Derby to cover those costs.

It's similar to Boro who we know suffered significant financial difficulty recently.
