Nationwide League: League press for full disclosure

The true extent of ITV Digital’s shaky finances could be revealed today when the Football League ask the High Court to release confidential documents withheld when the debt-laden broadcaster went into administration.

The League have threatened a £500m (€816m) lawsuit unless ITV Digital fulfil their contract to screen Nationwide matches and pay the £89.25m (€145m) due in August - and agree to enter discussions over the final instalment of £89.25m (€145m), a payment scheduled in a further 12 months.
