Rule K arbitration

I don't see the club being in limbo, it looks like business as usual.

I emailed the Football League last Tuesday about where further information could be found; I've yet to receive a reply.

It's amazing how opaque the FL has been about this. Considering the need for governing bodies to be transparent, I'm amazed that nothing has been posted.

Considering it's the Football League, I'm not amazed at all.

And Perth, whatever you believe about Cellino, surely you have to accept that rumours about possible takeovers cause instability in a club, or business or any organisation. People, naturally, wonder if their jobs may be at stake.

Easy to reach that conclusion from afar Perth. Looks quite stable from Los Angeles too.

So what are these so obvious signs of us being a club in limbo waiting for the FA to respond?

Cellino seems to be pretty sure there'll be no further bans and business appears to be continuing as normal.

Tedd, I used to talk to the FL quite a bit during Bates tenure but they completely changed when Cellino came along and won't share any information now.

I completely agree with you regarding transparency, nobody seems to know what is going on any more which is a ridiculous state of affairs.

Arbitration is FA, not FL.

Confidentiality applies, including the existence of proceedings. But the decision would normally be made public.

Saying that, the FL will be party to it - LUFC v the FL.

Sol, I think people are talking about FL,because they are the ones who issued latest ban.
