The Chairman of Sheffield United has come out hitting over the Premierships stance regarding the Relegation debacle last year that saw West Ham stay up after escaping a point deduction over the “Breach of Transfer” regarding Argentinian Carlos Tevez.

While stating that he still didn’t understand why West Ham hadn’t been docked, Kevin McCabe said “Our relegation was in many ways down to the inadequacies and lack of proper governance at the Premier League.”

“They are under-managed. They hide behind setting up an independent panel to penalise a club that’s breached the rules and believe that alleviates their job to govern the game.

“We’ve got to accept the commerciality and business that’s attached to football now, but it should never overtake sport itself, and that’s where governance has got to be improved.”
