It's pretty clear that Power and co have been at best flouting the rules for some years.....
Genuine question....why do you say this? do you have any ACTUAL proof? and when you say flouting, what level of flouting do you accuse him/them of? these are pretty serious accusations you make.

The situatioin is dependent on circumstances, as to how the authorities might react to this.... we can't tell. 

In 1990, our misdemeanours coincided with a need to make someone an example for dodgy payments, and it was never going to be a ManU or Spurs.
...........or Chelsea............

he did say "see charter requirements for fans forum". He's right, they've not done one
for ages.

in terms of the court cases, I think it's pretty clear power has been shitting on people regarding money. Legal or illegal we'll not know until it's settled. Verbal contracts are still contracts, just hard to prove

Here's one: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-wiltshire-36110359

This particular example was to the detriment of people who work at the club. It is hard to say whether it was intentional or just utter incompetence, he was warned about it though.

Cheers that passed me by, not sure its deliberately flouting the rules or accidental but yes it seems to have happened

As for the "see charter requirements for fans forum" I have no idea what that is and why it would be considered as flouting the rules?

Not defending Power at all but wondered why if he has flouted the rules so often as has been accused that he has not been brought to task previously for this by the law let alone the footballing authorities.

A fan's forum is where the fans or representatives thereof, get an oportunity to quiz the owner/ directors or CEO of the club on matters of interest.

Lets be honest, the press and so called 'journalists' don't know if any rules have actually been breached, they probably haven't even read the EFL rules yet alone understood them. Barry is a name, there are not many other stories around at the moment so they have thrown some mud based on some words in a judges transcript in the hope that a story materialises.

Add to that our numerous fans who seem certain that many many rules have been broken.

Have you read carefully the details of the court cases.... have you read carefully the FL/FA rules about club ownership and conduct?
