Football League investigates allegation Watford owner used 'forged banking letter' in takeover

Watford are under investigation from the English Football League following allegations they supplied false financial documents to the governing body.

The allegations, reported in the Daily Telegraph on Monday, centre on Gino Pozzo's sole takeover of the Hornets in 2014, where he assumed complete control from his father Giampaolo, and the alleged use of a forged banking letter.
