EulogyForEvolution Posted January 18, 2022 Author Share Posted January 18, 2022 Margaret Beckett: "He said in his opening remarks that nobody wants to see the club go under. Well, some of us are beginning to wonder." I want to hear something strong from the Minister on this soon. He isn't there, but he has to come out strong on it. Great to hear the contribution from Julian Knight MP, too, saying that the EFL should show decency after relying on a bailout themselves.

LauraH Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Interesting comment then regards Lloyds bank finding a pragmatic solution to enable Crystal Palace to be taken over and it's maybe time for Boro and WW to take the same approach. Think I heard that right, would need to watch back. Can't say I'm familiar with with what went off with CP. Indy and I know nuffin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caerphilly Ram Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Really good, moving and admirable points/questions being raised, the message seems to be those involved in the process need to find a solution that works for all parties (“pragmatism” being the buzz word) and then a bigger conversation about the obvious need for independent regulation of football. The focus is being put on the EFL, the admins, and the clubs to fix our situation. My take away from this is that the Government won’t at this moment in time directly get involved in things, clearly the increased conversation and exposure is having an effect though, I think we’re finally reaching the point of a solution being found, I have no idea what that will be and fear there may be some more pain to come with ultimately the club surviving beyond this season.

Ramarena Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 This is good, it’s just a shame we are suffering this during the current parliament. With the PM probably not making it to the end of the week political bandwidth for our cause will be in shorter supply than normal times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIH Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Extract from Parliament running order: 14:16:19 Chris Philp MP, The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (Croydon South, Conservative) 14:13:41 Mrs Pauline Latham MP (Mid Derbyshire, Conservative) 14:09:52 Chris Philp MP, The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (Croydon South, Conservative) 14:09:32 Urgent Question: To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport if she will make a statement on matters of EFL (English Football League) governance surrounding the administration of Derby County FC. Rt Hon MP Margaret Beckett & Pauline Latham both asked Chris Philip to review the EFL's handling of current issue, with two further mentions of pushing forward the Fan led review to have a Independent regulator for football (which hopefully will gee the EFL up) Margret Becket finished by stating if the EFL let Derby fail to continue "they will never be forgiven" Overall, a very impressive plea on behalf of DCFC for the EFL to help resolve the current impasse.
