Can anyone explain the 4th paragraph to me...? Linguistically it is tortured.
On the thing as a whole, are the FL saying that the administrators and/or the new owners are not presenting them with the proper legal paperwork about the sale and purchase of the club? "certainty on current legal proceedings surrounding the administration" added to the 5th para - are the FL asking for the legality of it all to be investigated? Why does this mud never get any clearer? -----Original Message----- League Board Considers Leeds Share Transfer At its meeting in London today, the Board of The Football League considered the reported sale of Leeds United by its administrators, KPMG. To date, no documentation regarding the sale has been submitted to The League by the administrators. Notwithstanding this, the Board was asked by the reported purchasers to consider an application to transfer Leeds United's share in The Football League to them. The Board was unable to consent to this request this morning. Instead it has requested, from the administrators, certain required documentation and assurances regarding the sale of the club. The Board also requires certainty on the current legal proceedings surrounding the administration. The Board had been expecting the administrators to attend today's meeting, as KPMG originally requested. However, The League was informed late yesterday afternoon that they would not be attending, with no explanation provided. Additionally, the Board expressed concern at the handling of the whole process by the administrators and the Chairman was instructed to obtain legal advice in that regard. Clearly any further delays in this process will be frustrating for Leeds supporters. However, like the club's fans, the Board recognises the pressing need for certainty regarding the future of League football in Leeds and has agreed to convene at the earliest opportunity to re-consider the share transfer, once it has been provided with all the relevant information. Also, for the avoidance of doubt, The League would like to make it clear that there is nothing in its regulations to prevent a club beginning a new playing season whilst in administration. _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
