Last week, the UK government backed the fan-led review into the governance of English football, including the proposal for an independent regulator. However, whilst the independent regulator is set to be appointed for next season, they did not push for immediate changes on the financial governance of football and have given the Premier League two years to come to their own solution on how to better distribute money to the EFL.
Gary Neville has been vocal on this issue throughout and he spoke about it again on his podcast, immediately after Leeds United's 4-0 loss to Manchester City on Saturday. Neville said:
"I was happy with the fan-led review. I was happy that the government have endorsed it. I was unhappy that it’s been delayed two years.
