Macclesfield Town's grim decline is proof that Football League clubs need regulatory future-proofing

The comparisons are unhelpful and hopeless, but that makes them no less ugly. This week, a list of Chelsea’s club fine system went viral on social media. Players are fined £20,000 if they are late for training, and £500 for each minute of a team meeting they miss. At the other end of the Football League ladder, Macclesfield Town are struggling to survive. Turn up eight minutes late to a Chelsea team meeting and you could cover Macclesfield’s weekly losses.
