Is this financial fair play thing a load of old ****** ??????

i was thinking the same thing!!

 

Lester City >>..... Now have the owners company plastered all over the KIT & GROUND so the owner can pump as much money into the club as he likes each year

Man City >>....same as above

Newcastle >>..... same as above

Liverpool >>>.... now have a new kit maker called warrior sports, Now ive not looked into it but do any of you lot want to bet me that Liverpool fc and Warrior Sports is not owned by the same person because i'll gladly take your money


SO WHATS THE POINT IN THIS FAIR PLAY BULLSHYTE

 

It probably is. In my opinion the bigger clubs (Wendies, Portsmouth, and most likely Leicester) will inevitably get protected while the smaller clubs (Darlo, Plymouth, Exeter) will have the book thrown at them. The current FA haven't got the balls to do all this work for lower league clubs. Fergie and co will get round the rules somehow anyway as usual. They could surprise me though.

Thanks for that

 

It will make no difference to us really. We will still be skint while other clubs in the division spend more through higher revenues and taking advantage of the £5m loss they are allowed. While we get by on sub 10k crowds, that is what needs to change, we need to earn more money, can't see it happening. Even if these rules come in the difference in budget between us and Leicester could still be £10m in 2017.

 

These conferences etc don't go far
enough because most clubs have mercenary chairmen who want to be in the pl regardless of what club they happen to be in charge of at the time. If they don't achieve that they're off to something else or another club. Often leaving a mess behind them.
Whats needed is solid representation from each club with board,supporter repressentation.imo

 

Given Bolton have more debt than the entire bundasliga some country's do manage it.

Mindsets are everything though.

 

Leicester are one of the worst culprits

their dodgy dealings lead to the league introducing the points deduction rule, while they got off scot-free and got a new ground into the bargain. Scummy club.

 

Re: Leicester are one of the worst culprits

"The proposal would require clubs to reduce their losses next season to £12m a year, and by 2017 reduce the permitted loss to £5m a year. Of that, £3m would have to be covered by a capital injection from an owner or investor, leaving £2m as the loss clubs are allowed to make."

so either way, a club with a rich owner can still foot a good percentage of a £12m bill next year onwards until 2017. scandalous.
