About bloody time.

I wonder if this is a result of QPR pointing a few things out in their defence ?

for a representative of the FAW to sit in on any FA disciplinary panel involving a Welsh club.

All matters regarding a Welsh club to be put in this blokes pigeon hole for the same decisions.

Good point. Possibly.

The Welsh bloke on the panel will still get them off every stonewall red card!

Nope, as I think it would be voted 2 for 1 against, but if true, there was talk about Cardiff and third party ownership (companies in certain countries ?) which could be interesting going forward.

Possibly why Cardiff are keeping quiet about the result of the investigation whilst Rogers and Swansea are starting to whine about it. Possibly even moreso if they dont get into the PO final!

Still gonna have 'A representative of the FAW to sit in on any FA disciplinary panel involving a Welsh club' that sounds a conflict of interests if you ask me.
Would they allow a team from England to have a rep from their club on the board when being dealt with, NO. Because in a way isn't that what it's like?

I know people may say they are reps from the country not the club to my above comment but there are only 2 clubs ffs so there must be some bias.

That shouldn't be allowed.

It should be made clear to the clubs that if tey want to play in the English league then they are bound by the English rules. Otherwise they can go and play in the Welsh League with Bangor and TNS, rather than compete with the likes of Leeds & Reading.
