    Whatever the tweet was, it looks like it's been deleted.

    It was basically a letter accusing the EFL of being Allam brown nosers.

    They already sent an apology, saying they should check for auto-spell corrections which were obviously wrong.

    It was to do with Blackpool, the Oystons and the EFL supposedly being complicit. There were some real home truths.

    There was an interesting bit where it mentioned Belokon was convicted of money laundering in Kazakhstan or some dodgy arsehole of a country, but only there and the conviction wasn't recognised internationally. In fact apparently Belokon was eventually awarded £14m or something because of it all. Anyway I digress, apparently the EFL sided with the Oystons and accepted the dodgy ruling and made Belokon step down from the board at Oystons demands, despite the conviction being an absolute farce.

    Not sure if that was true, never heard nowt about that before.

    There was a couple of errors in the writing, I suspect they have taking it down to amend it. The reason I posted it, was that it stated the league should have more responsibility and take action against owners who trouser parachute payments and the like and milk clubs for all they are worth.

    Like it and very very true. The authorities are useless in taking care of the game.

    Someone has gone and looked up the spelling of Kyrgyzstan. Still need to work on their use of apostrophes (but I'd rather focus on the core message).

    Yes, the EFL could do better. As could the Premier league, as could the FA, as could FIFA.
