Which divisions were those clubs in and how would the current rules applicable to PL clubs help them ?

The clubs are detailed in the attachment

So zero relevance to the current PL PSR regulations.

A further possible explanation might be that the most vulnerable/badly managed clubs had already become insolvent in the preceding 12 years (whilst others potentially at risk, having seen what had happened to other clubs took the appropriate steps, regardless of rule changes).

As they say statistics, statistics and dammed lies.

Well who knows.

You could argue that the additional reporting requirements and indeed the fact that government departments were putting far more pressure on compliance could easily have directed greater focus on compliance but that would all be speculation

One on the issues that arose briefly over the summer was that the PL were ordered to disclose all the emails that referred to City.

Plainly, having read the judgment, that disclosure does not refer to the APT case. It makes it interesting to speculate on what the reason for the disclosure might be in the 115 case.

Maybe we're expecting there to be a number of "iffy" emails that mention us,and we're planning on asking them( the p.l) to put them in the correct context.

Good point, but don't keep us on tenterhooks. What is your speculation?

It has the sniff of something the tribunal might order if there was a credible allegation that we had been unfairly and specifically singled out and targeted...

So your assumption that less clubs entering insolvency agreements is a suggestion that the current rules are working? Wouldnt you say thats somewhat specious reasoning, the reality of less clubs insolvency agreements could be down to any number of factors not least the massive amount of money in football at the moment, it would a huge reach to suggest it was solely down to the rules.

UEFA did the same, claiming their rules had reduced failures. Meanwhile both Milan clubs were bankrupt, Barca was close and the rags debt ballooned.
