are paul elliot and gordon milne still on the panel ?
The 8 members of the panel are made up of the 4 representatives of the National Game and 4 Representatives of the Professional Game. There are 4 other Non Council Members who are selected by the 8 panel members.
The National Game Representatives are; Mr Barry Bright,(Kent County FA) Mr David Edmunds (Chesire County FA), Mr David Elleray (Independant Schools), Mr Richard Tur (Oxford University).
The Professional Games Representatives are; Mr Robert Coar (Blackburn Rovers),Mr David Barnard (Chelsea FC), Mr Maurice Lindsey (Preston North End), Mr Anthony Kleanthous.(Barnet FC)
I have no idea who the 4 non members are but the FA Consitution requires they should have Legal, Financial or Sporting expertise to be considered competent to be members of the regulatory panel.
Each panel should consist of a Chairman normally a QC appointed by the FA plus one member from the National Game Panel, one member from the Professional Game Panel and one member from the 4 non council members. Looking at the names I would have thought Mr Maurice Lindsey would be excused because of his links to Preston North End but thats just my opinion.
Other than that it would appear impossible to pass the test Carl has placed before us because it would not be possible for Mr David Dean, Mr John Ryan and Alan Shearer to all be on the panel, that would be against the consitution of the FA Council
