Football League to play "active" part in FA commission's process

Football League chief executive Shaun Harvey insists that they will work alongside the FA's commission following the latter's report on how to improve English football.

Football League chief executive Shaun Harvey has insisted that they will work with the Football Association's commission after they released a report detailing proposals to improve English football.

FA chairman Greg Dyke today confirmed plans to introduce a new division below League Two consisting of Premier League 'B teams'.

The report has also put forward proposals to reduce the number of non-homegrown players in Premier League squads from 17 to 12 over five years, as well as calls for no non-EU players to join clubs outside of the Premier League.

Football League chief executive Shaun Harvey said in a statement: "It is our view that the objective of increasing the number of quality English players is laudable and while the report may not contain a solution that is acceptable at the current time, we should continue to engage with the Commission to establish whether there is a solution that meets its stated objective but does not leave The Football League carrying a disproportionate or unreasonable burden.

"The commission's report signals the beginning of a consultation process in which we will play a full and active part. This will include discussing all the relevant matters with our clubs, who will determine our ultimate position on these issues."

Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand, who is part of the commission, has called on fans to "join the debate" following the release of the report.
