Football League: Discussion

Norwich City have won the Championship with Sheffield United second.

In the play offs it is
Aston Villa v West Bromwich Albion
Derby County v Leeds United

Well done to my sister & brother-in-law's team AFC Wimbledon. They managed to secure their place in next season's league one again after hovering dangerously close to being relegated.

Not only does our new manager Graeme Jones have the same last name as our last manager who fucked off to Stoke, he just happens to be from Gateshead, the same place as Tori Lee is from, what an amazing coincidence, who knows maybe one day they could have statues built next to each other up there

Bury still haven't played a game this season and Bolton have postponed their game on Tuesday apparently without telling thei opponents

it is very sad to see the situation developing at Bury FC this was the last statement posted on 15 aug.

Bury Football Club can confirm that due to the EFL not receiving the requested information from Chairman Steven Dale, further fixtures have been postponed.
On Tuesday, the EFL postponed this Saturday’s home clash with Gillingham, while issuing a deadline of today for the trip to Rotherham, due to be played on the 20th of August. The information the EFL require is still outstanding, and thus the Rotherham fixture has been suspended.
Due to the build-up of suspended fixtures, the EFL maintain that they can’t keep suspending games indefinitely and therefore the withdrawal of membership is still in place, with the deadline being the 23rd of August. Given the number of suspended fixtures, we have been referred to a Disciplinary Commission by the EFL.

As we are due to take on Tranmere Rovers on the 24th of August, the EFL will decide as to whether that fixture will go ahead in the early part of next week.
We can also confirm that we have ‘been served with a notice of charge’ after failing to fulfil the cup tie with Sheffield Wednesday earlier this week. The EFL have given us until the 21st of August to respond to this. At this stage the EFL will either deal with the matter themselves or refer it to a Disciplinary Commission under EFL Regulations.
As a Club, we are working tirelessly to find a solution to the current issues we are facing with the EFL. We would like to thank supporters for their patience and understanding at this frustrating time for all involved with Bury Football Club.

It would be sad to see an EFL club membership withdrawn after 134 years. If anyone has more up to date news it would be appreciated and also what is the procedure if membership withdrawal DOES take place.

Yeah i have heard about this it has been sad what has happened to Bury and i heard they got a right dick owner in Steve Dale he has owned over 20 companies which all gone into administration so how the hell did he met the EFL requirements and he brought the club for £1 like Steve Oyston did with Blackpool and he rejected an offer of a 750k for someone to buy the club for goodness sake Dale the club is dying.

There is some very interesting videos that Stuntpegg does that tells all about the situation of Bolton and Bury and the information i just told you about is on a YouTube video called what has happened to Bury and Bolton?.

Strange how 2 Manchester Clubs in Bury and Bolton have got into trouble when one in Salford is up and coming strange that is.

Not even the 2 Giants Manchester United and City will help the poor Club out it is an absolute joke really.

Dale has half an hour to keep Bury in EFL!!

Dale should not have got through the EFL requirements. IMHO The FA, EFL and the PL now have to get together - to have urgent discussions and re - write their 'fit and proper tests' because THIS should NOT BE HAPPENING!! They need to do more background checks on the person or even a company making an application, and ask far more searching questions before granting an application.

Man Utd have offered to help Bury, what form that help will take we will have to see. Solskjaer even revealed when he played in the reserves, he actually missed a penalty at Bury!!

Looks like Bury could survive after all.

No Football Club has been kicked out of the Football League since 92 last being Aldershot and Maidstone which shows how in control the owners normally are of their Football Clubs.

By the way didn't realise Maidstone was a Football League Club always thought they was a Non League Team.

Reports suggest it is a London based consortium - has that been confirmed overnight?
