Football “paralysis” is attributed to an independent authority, with Nottingham Forest mentioned

According to a top-flight club chairman, the possibility of an independent regulator has

“driven English football into the courts.”

The Premier League is currently experiencing what may be the most contentious era since

its inception in 1992.Champions In addition to contesting more than 100 allegations

of breaking the league’s financial regulations, Manchester City has filed two different

challenges to the regulations governing business transactions.

In addition, the Premier League is battling Leicester City in an arbitration lawsuit for a

purported violation of its sustainability and profitability regulations, while Everton and Nottingham were involved last season.

Steve Parish, the chairman of Crystal Palace, maintains that the atmosphere is “civil” and “collegiate”

when elite clubs get together to talk about the game’s future. However, he attributes the current

“paralysis” in football to the establishment of an independent regulator.

At the Financial Times Business of Football Summit, he stated: “People exaggerate the problems.

However, we do have an issue with being reminded all the time that we are a sport and not a business.

Additionally, we are being treated like a company in court at the same time.
