I’m reading an old Brian Clough biography at the moment. Derby were at it in his day, flying by the seat of their pants, cash in carrier bags that Mr Clough was taking home to ‘mind’. Tapping up players promising under the counter cash payments etc etc. Have the Football League kept their powder dry for years and years, biding their time knowing eventually they’d get a stonewall case against them?

I do think that Reading should help them out though and take a few points deduction off them, only fair
