Last updated : 16 August 2013 By Covsupport News Service

Accordiing to the Coventry Telegraph's Les Reid, the Football League have admitted getting it wrong over Coventry City player registrations.

Mr Reid, who quizzed the Football League has written: "the League has confirmed publicly for the first time that it made an “administrative oversight” in registering Sky Blues players to Coventry City Football Club (Holdings) Ltd.

"The League admitted the players’ contracts ought to have been registered with another company - Coventry City Football Club Limited - because it held the League’s “golden share” which allowed it to play in the league as the club.

"The League claims the errors did not breach its rules and regulations, claiming assets can straddle two companies - but it accepts it was not “ideal” and “should not have happened”
