Why the abject EFL should be renamed the Bin Fire League - spend and they have a thousand rules to stop you; bleed a club dry and nothing will be done

The BFL. That's what they should call it. Not the EFL. The Bin Fire League. That's what it is. A blaze in an abandoned dumpster, masquerading as a football pyramid.

Sheffield Wednesday breached profit and sustainability rules chasing promotion in 2018-19: 12-point deduction from the BFL. Sheffield Wednesday defaulted on player wages last month: so far, not a dicky bird.

That's the BFL all over. Spend and they have a thousand rules to stop you; bleed a club dry, or swindle the staff, and nothing. Sheffield Wednesday's players were given a maximum of £7,000 each for November, with the promise of the balance later.
