My problem with the system is when you get the likes of the Vaughan's at Chester, Peter Ridsdale in particular, at various clubs and of course our own Mr Brearley and Morgon.loan_star wrote: ↑Mon Jun 03, 2019 4:01 pmI would think that if a potential owner didn't pass the test the FA cant really do anything to stop a sale going through but they are within their right to stop a team from participating in any competition or league.EDJOHNS wrote: ↑Mon Jun 03, 2019 3:33 pm
I was more on about being able to stop a person from buying a club with the threat of expulsion but,

I know teams are banned from playing at sunday level if they don't pay what they owe in fines for bookings etc, whilst leagues themselves can ban teams for owing money to the league, or not allow a team to enter if the people running it have previous for bad debts or failing to complete a season under another team name.
How on earth do the likes of Ridsdale keep on passing the "fit and proper" test. To say there is little the FA can do is plain wrong, it is a simple fact the criteria needs to be raised and must certainly include some form of 1 hit and you are out and no way back. Then quite simply stand firm and say if that person gets involved the club will be banned as long as he is there.
That may sound draconian but we know they have that ability in full measure.
