So you you know, there are I've always said there are ways to mitigate this.
podcast-host
There are ways to uh designate a committee from the EFL to go in and be in charge of a club instead of an administrator who's going to charge three million quid in fees per year.
podcast-host
You could basically, we could have an emergency panel of people.
podcast-host
You could pick four people, put them on a retainer, and when you need them, you put them in.
podcast-host
You could be an ex-CEO in football.
podcast-host
You could have a director of football like a Barry Fry, you could have uh a you know, uh an a CFO
podcast-host
Yeah, CFM.
podcast-host
Right, CFO CEO and a and uh director of football, and for the grand price of probably four hundred grand for the year, paying their wages, they could go in and run that club properly without being an administrator, you know, using a third party accountancy firm to advise them on what to do legally and correctly.
podcast-host
But you've just spunked three, four, whatever million to an administrator.
podcast-host
I've always argued this.
podcast-host
We as an EFL could do that and run those clubs until the club solves.
podcast-host
So well, you know, if if I'm the regulator, that's one thing I'd start putting in place that we also sign up to instead of getting a receiver in or instead of whatever else that the EFL get a period of time
podcast-host
call it six months to come in and do things right, run the club, sell players, sell assets, do whatever.
podcast-host
If after the six months the EFL haven't found an owner, haven't cleaned it up, then an administrator can be tak can be put in place.
podcast-host
But I just think a lot of time and money could be saved if we did that properly.
podcast-host
No update.
podcast-host
We still get the same money whilst everything else raises and wages, inflation, costs to run a club.
podcast-host
We still get the same money.
podcast-host
The price of electricity keeps going up our rates.
podcast-host
I mean, I I I I was going through cash flow for next year and this is like and this isn't just big government, it's local government as well.
