Big Championship clubs want EFL board change in line with Premier League - News Summed Up

Big Championship clubs want EFL board change in line with Premier League


Some of the Championship's biggest clubs are demanding radical reform of the EFL board in the wake of Shaun Harvey's resignation, Sky Sports News understands. Now the big Championship clubs want more of a say in the appointment of Harvey's successor and a re-structuring of the EFL board so that it no longer has ultimate power in making future decisions. Currently, the 72 EFL clubs do not each get a vote on big decisions - instead they are made by the nine members of the EFL board of directors, which is made up of three appointed by the EFL, three representatives of the Championship clubs, two from League One and one from League Two. Sky Sports News has been told the board has immediately begun to look for appropriate candidates, but the process of appointing the new CEO will not be discussed in detail until the next EFL board meeting on March 6. Unless the structure is changed, the EFL board will decide on who will be the new CEO, and those directors have the power to appoint the new boss without any consultation with the clubs.
