They still in the meeting? The FA are a flipping joke. Pardon my French! Could decide this during a hydration break! 

FA Completely useless, peoples minds are already decided irrespective of what is reviewed or looked at from Tonda's point of view. Its a 15 min chat and announcement.

I’ll bow to your knowledge of the regulations, but out of interest does it go so far as to the penalties or measures that might be imposed for particular breaches ? 

Wasn't precedent set with Bielsa?

It’s a joke, it should be sorted out long before the start of the next season. This happened before the end of the season previous. I said at the time it would be just before or even after the season has started which is ridiculous and will send us into complete chaos in what is a hugely important season in which, if we do not go up it could impacted the club for years/decades.

That alone will cause damages worthy of seeking compensation.

Edit: Sadly, we would have to prove that it was deliberate. Good luck on that.

Just a different point - perhaps a lawyer would only have to prove it was incompotence by the FA that has seriously affected our build up for the new season. I mean the FA know the new season is approaching, they know teams appoint coaches and get players as early as they can for specific prices, plus clubs release players, to fit their plans, which included the coaching staff. If the FA due to diddling around and being slow and unable to check out the problem and come to a verdict in a reasonable time, so when they come up with some tremendous punishment it seriously affects this - that is unacceptable. 

Or maybe I'm being too 'professional' and 'logical'? 🤣

It would be worth the shot for sure. That screams a financial settlement, which would still be an unacceptable remedy. The question is, are they operating this slow always? I imagine that is a yes.

Indeed, however it was an all preventable, self-inflicted fuck up

We also had the opportunity to show him the door and reappoint for the start of the season I suppose.

We should have got trump to ring FA and  EFL to get us off - FIFA are bigger cheats than anyone else followed by the FA themselves!
