r0cafella Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 1 minute ago, NE27 said: So who determines what is a fair amount for sponsorship? What if we just started low with a related party, and every season bumped it up and quoted worldwide interest in the club alongside (fingers crossed) slow progression up the league means it's worth more? Whilst the general idea is fine, because going from 4m per season to 100m seems bonkers. But commercially we have been stunted by Ashley and became a toxic brand. Under new ownership, we could essentially get a larger deal by the very fact he's not associated anymore. Just feels flakey at best and reactionary. It is, the sole goal is to knee cap us and prevent us from challenging. The pathetic fucks are shitting themselves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormy Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 As others have said, none of our competitors gave a shit about a fair playing field when the club was being paid well under market value to plaster tat over every available surface. Consider any future astronomical deals delayed recompense, you corrupt fucks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelphish Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 It feels so completely alien that I can actually look forward to match days again, after so many years. Absolutely incredible feeling. Honestly enough to make you emotional. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 What happens if we break FFP rules anyway? Banned from European competition for a season (which we are unlikely to be in next season)? Transfer embargo for a season like Chelsea? Or a paltry fine? Really nothing painful enough to stop us from breaking the bank for one season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm very surprised, but they've worded the statement very well, and I think it's a fair enough request by the club so as not to attract any unnecessary attention, even though it shouldn't really, but it's good the leadership at the club are sensitive to the situation.
