Agree. Frustrating that they managed to purchase us when they were rejected of Hull in the Premier League not long before that, but then again you can't stop someone from passing the owners and directors test if they've managed to get themselves into a situation where they can now pass it. What I don't understand is why it was different between the EFL and PL, why you wouldn't just have a standard owners & directors test for all divisions? Certainly needs a look at in terms of regulation.
It's utterly ******* ludicrous that the PL have different F&PP tests to the FL, both should be synchronised to the exact same set of criteria - and perhaps all such tests should be conducted by one independent organisation that would specialise in such things (and likewise could be the "go to" organisation when clubs need or want to find new owners).
Interestingly* what would have happened had we gotten promoted?
A flying pig would have cleared us of all charges.
