July 19, 201115 yr Football League chairman Greg Clarke admits ownership of clubs is a puzzle after Dispatches' revelations Greg Clarke, the Football League chairman, admits cash constraints at his organisation mean they cannot know for sure who owns their member clubs. State of confusion: Football League chairman Greg Clarke was speaking in response to an investigation by Channel 4’s Dispatches Photo: PA By Luke Edwards 11:27PM BST 18 Jul 2011 Clarke was speaking in response to an investigation by Channel 4’s Dispatches programme, which showed a Bangkok-based investment group, the London Nominees Football Fund, offering undercover reporters the chance to buy Sheffield United. The show also suggested the company had offered the chance to purchase more than one club, in contravention of Football Association rules. “We are an alliance of 72 clubs who largely lose money,” Clarke said. “We don’t have hundreds of thousands to get to the bottom of these complicated organisation structures.” Asked whether he was confident he knew the identity of the owners of every club in the League, Clarke replied: “No, I’m not. There’s a process that lets the League know who the owners are. Who the owners of the owners are is more difficult.” Sheffield United confirmed that they had met Joe Sim as a potential buyer, but told Dispatches they would have carried out due diligence checks before proceeding. The Football Fund denied that they, or anyone associated with them, would breach or offer to breach FA or Football League regulations.

July 26, 201115 yr As you may know, River Plate was relegated last season after losing the promotion playoffs (La Promoción) to Belgrano. But River will not play the second tier next season. The Argentinan Football Association voted for a change in next season's football pyramid. The first and the second tiers will be merged, making a competition with 40 teams.
