It’s also what happened at Rovers under Jack. Directors loans for working capital during the year, converted to share capital every year.

Fast Forward....Wembley, May 2021 Radio Lancs commentary: “We move into the 94th minute of this exciting play off final and with the scores locked at 2-2 extra time now looks inevitable....cross from the right hits Lenihan’s arm....oh no it’s a penalty....the ref has given a penalty....Lenihan’s arms were by his side but the referee has seen that as handball and a season’s efforts seem set to come to naught here thanks to that decision...

You’re right in as much as there will always be a top 6 in the league table & the economic league table, but as long as it remains 1 club, 1 vote then the door to join them remains ajar.

The biggy is the voting rights. Once handed over they are gone forever. The EFL clubs will forever be doffing their caps to the Lord of the manor hoping for crumbs from the table.
