Gary Neville: Premier League acting like bully in dealings with football pyramid
Gary Neville and Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy during an English Football League and Football Supporters' Association event

THE Premier League has acted like a “bully” in its dealings over extra cash for the football pyramid, Gary Neville has said.

Talks over a “new deal” on television money between the Premier League and the EFL have been on hold since March, with no sign of any imminent resumption.

Football’s independent regulator is set to be given “backstop” powers to settle the dispute, with Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy stating today that the legislation to bring forward the regulator would be introduced to Parliament “within a matter of weeks.”
