Are the proposed new owners of Bury fit and proper? EFL haven't said either way.
What do you suppose happens in a 'fit and proper' assessment? The EFL would have been presented with people who did not have relevant criminal convictions or restrictions upon their ability to act as directors and who produced documentation that showed that they had a bob or two. That’s it.

The GMC admitted Harold Shipman as a doctor as he was deemed to be a fit and proper person to be a member of that profession. Were they at fault or is it the case that they, like, the EFL, are not clairvoyant? Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
