MANCHESTER, England: Football League chairman Rick Parry hit back at the Premier League and the UK government on Sunday after they criticised his plan, backed by Liverpool and Manchester United, for a major restructuring of the Premier League.
The plan was first reported by The Telegraph on Sunday and the Premier League responded saying"a number of the individual proposals in the plan published today could have a damaging impact on the whole game and we are disappointed to see that Rick Parry, Chair of the EFL, has given his on-the-record support"."We don't apologise for having dialogue with two of our major clubs who have come forward and suggested it," Parry told reporters.
The UK government's Department of Culture Media and Sport also came out against the plan but Parry said that wouldn't cause a rethink. Parry said the changes were needed because of"a chasm which has become unbridgeable for clubs transitioning between the EFL and the Premier League".
