EFL Statement: Regulation Changes – Summer 2023

At today’s Annual General Meeting (AGM), EFL Clubs voted to approve several changes to the EFL Regulations that will come into effect immediately. These include:

In terms of on the pitch.

Multiball reintriduced and towelling banned which I am in favour of.

West Brom may actually have to attempt to play football.
 
Looks like a couple of Peter clauses:

HMRC REPORTING​
The EFL has updated Regulation 17.1 to include all debts due to HMRC and now requires Clubs to report any defaults within two working days.​
​
30-DAY RULE​
The non-payment of HMRC debt has been added as a trigger of Regulation 52.6, so Clubs who accumulate 30 days of late payments in a 12-month period will be unable to sign a player for a fee or any consideration for three full transfer windows. The amendment to the 30-Day Rule also provides for Clubs to self-report late payment of any debt covered by Regulation 52.6, plus a right of appeal for Clubs triggering the 30-Day Rule.​

Fraud rightly excluding people from being a director, they should add previous disqualification from being a company director.

Possibly another Peter clause - the "ignore the first ban, that money was just resting in my account" rule:

The list of disqualifying conditions has been updated to include:​
  • Second (or further) bankruptcies/convictions/bans, even if expired or spent.

I'd like to see the game sped up, jj you're right towels is so what but the amount of pissing about that takes place is the issue for me. Free kicks take ages, spraying the foam, lining the lads up, making sure everyone is ready 💤 absolutely shite. Get going.

Easy to alleviate..... All none essential use of game time is added onto the end of the game even if it's half an hour or more. They'd soon stop pissing about

Corners too. The amount of times I see the following:

Two players grabbing hold of each other. Ref walks over and tells them to calm it down. Ref walks away. Two players grab hold again. Ref walks over and gives them a sterner talking to. Ref walks away. The corner is taken

Actually it is something that really slows the game down and causes a right old faff.

Some clubs proper take the piss, the other year at Deepdale West Brom were a nightmare with it - I think there was one game were the other club took all the towels in and they started using jackets from supporters.

Simple but effective way to speed the game up.

I don’t think PR will like multi-ball, buying loads more balls is going to eat into his budget!

It has slightly bemused me as to why the Premier League had it and we didn't.

I think it was scrapped initially because managers of the home teams would control how fast of slow they got thrown back in.

The way they do it now is to put the balls on the little cone things and it is then over to the players.

I’d suggest you’re turning into an impatient grumpy old fucker.
You’d also be counter whinging if we had Rory Delap throwing them in for us

I would just rather the game was played a bit quicker tempo and this new rule means it should be.

I will take it as a compliment being called a grumpy old fucker from you though 😉

No sure why you have such an issue with it.

As for long throws... we used Barky for some odd reason.
