And I'm sure there are plenty of things happening behind the scene waiting for the approval tick. Farke would have already done his homework on who he wants to keep no doubt.
Like I said in post #24, until the last week or so, there hasn't been any suggestion from anyone (apart from yours truly), that the EFL process might take as long as it has, quite the opposite. I pointed out simply that the EFL don't owe LUFC any favours, past history would suggest quite the opposite, and that the consequence of not having an EFL approval was that no significant ins or outs would happen as regards the playing staff.

Everyone else has been, understandably, commenting on how little is happening, how much needs to happen and how the time to do any of it is rapidly diminishing, all of which I agree with.

I've no doubt you are correct that behind the scenes "stuff" has been happening, the issue being that no matter how much work has gone in to identifying the potential/preferred outs and ins, no actual signings will take place until the EFL approval comes in, having the effect of tying Farkes hands to current players (many of who want away and have stated so publicly, and others that aren't "up to scratch" as Championship players), not an easy circle to square.
