Not a chance this version passes

It would be realistic anyways, as we all know we are at our FFP limit of not over if, I’m not sure where the extra money to pay for him comes from.

Should be a quiet June tbh.

The lowest ranked person on the committee vetoing a deal is a hilarious notion.

Absolutely it doesn’t add up at all, and I’m someone who isn’t keen at all having any hint of nepotism at the club.

If you look at the leagues regulations from a business point of view they are totally beyond in and quite astonishing.

I echo the sentiments of a few on here, I don’t want to see the financial rules blown up and removed entirely but what I do want to see is an acknowledgment of how those clubs who grew when it was the Wild West gained an advantage which is no longer possible and rectification of that fact. What mechanisms used to reach this goal are used I truly couldn’t care less about but under the current regime the baked in advantages of the so called big 6 are only reinforced.

Pardon my ignorance what kind of role does he play?

No stupid release clauses please.

And to add on, under the current rules the wealthy owner is allowed to underwrite a small amount of losses (I can’t remember the exact figure) under the Squad cost rules that goes away. If squad cost and FMV rules are implemented at the same time we will never win the premier league or the champions league.

Absolutely, it’s why it was such a genius move for the big clubs to lobby for FFP when they did. If you cast your like back FFP was all about protecting clubs from doing a Leeds, or dare I say an Everton. On your point too it isn’t strictly true, remember FMV only relates to related party transaction but in reality it makes no sense to sponsor a club with a smaller profile over one of the established elites. It’s these sleight of hands which has made these rules such a strong piece of armour for the Arsenal, spurs and Liverpools.

Looks like we will be fighting over the same position, at least Chelsea should be out now … should..

Oh shit Varane is out of contract? Apologies didn’t even realise.

It’s complicated but for you lot your amortisation will be significant because you spend big every summer. Also, you haven’t shifted Varane and Casemiro at present so you can’t just bank on the money for them.

Sounds like your in exactly the same boat as us, Athletic reported between 75-100m + player sales for us.

Have you been linked with him? What’s your budget for this summer Frogman?

Aye fair enough given your lack of legs in there. It’s not going to happen though is it?

Maybe you lot can buy him to hold mason mounts hands.

Anchoring is a hard cap as I mentioned, which is why the PFA took issue and shot it down. FMV is obviously being challenged now by city so we will see how that pans out, at this point it’s a central pillar of FFP so it being struck down would be an absolute game changer.

Eh, I thought his contract was up? We didn’t pay him off if so.

Can share your source for that? That would be very interesting if true.

I think it’s because tying to revenue results to a basically unlimited cap, where as having an anchor which would come in to effect at x amount creates a cap on salaries. TLDR. Anchoring creates a hard cap. FFP or PSR creates a soft cap as revenue can always increase which results in in higher wages.

Aye I see that, I don’t see the pathway for him though, given our funds are limited the play is to bolster the starting 11 and backfill any departures with any funds we raise from what we get from selling.

I imagine it would be more and we could probably amortise it monthly, probably not enough on its own but every little helps.

The proposal tabled was, no luxury tax included. As discussed earlier Luxury taxes have their own issues BUT the owners are greedy as fuck so it’s probably the best mechanism to get an agreement.
