More often than not it is the actions of one set of individuals that forces a club into debt, and it is then left to a takeover consortium to try and pick up the pieces. Where this is the case, the current system penalises those who rescue clubs rather than those who cause the mess in the first place, and Hearn's proposals would only make this even worse by increasing that punishment.

The better solution would be to issue ten year banning orders preventing the individuals responsible from involvement in football at any club.

Clubs already suffer enough and those who suffer end up being those who truly care about the club NOT those who caused the problems in the first place looking at our own situation Newton, Kempster, Blackwells or the fans did not cause the financial problems but are still clearing up the mess now.

Seems a little bit like KILL or CURE to me. The F.A. Premier League,EUFA,FIFA.need to create a new code of practise for owners of football clubs to adhere to,then regulate this and stop clubs getting into this position in the first place.
