Sorry if I have missed it 

 

With the FFP rules changing in August 

 

Is the uefa option better or worse for us ? 
 

 

 

Looks to be worse on first glance.

Isn’t the UEFA model more about wages to turnover though?

 

so in theory would be no limit on transfer fees?

 

I might be wrong I don’t know too much about it

We are already at 95% 

 

So technically couldn’t sign anyone though - if it has to be 70% of wages / turnover 

 

Obviously

Sela / Adidas / Champions league money to add on will bring us closer to 70

It’s far worse, with UEFAs model, You’re able to spend 90% of your turnover on wages and amortisation(transfer fees) but that will drop from 90% to 70% over a number of years. It will mean those at the top will never be troubled by the likes of us or Villa as they will always be able to spend more on wages and transfers.

Surely all premier league clubs won’t vote for this ?

 

As even the alleged big six (man United / Chelsea) no close to the limits too ?

 

Would like to think 14 club vote against it ?

 

if it goes to a vote ? 
 

Why would majority want even tighter restrictions?

You’d think voting against that rule change on loans would see us do some sort of business there this month. Really odd that we haven’t.

Not odd at all when we never wanted to do them

Why would they vote against it, you have the sly6 who would vote for it, then you have at least 8-10 teams that are happy just to stay on the PL gravy train, with no intention of trying to compete with the sly6 so they would vote for it, you only have Us, Villa, Forest, Everton(new owners might be happy with the gravy train now) and Wolves that have the money and want to compete

Sure Arsenal and Man United currently up against FFP now 

 

Threshold is to low for some of the corrupt 6

Most clubs in this division want the PL to become a shop with revolving doors.

 

They don't want us (or Villa or Everton or whoever) to succeed because they want 14 other clubs that could be relegated, not 13. They also want it to be as difficult as possible for clubs coming up for the first-time in awhile to stay in the division. Forest's approach was mental but they wanted to stay up and spent to ensure. The other PL clubs don't want newcomers doing a Forest and staying up. They want yo-yo teams only.

Think that whole situation was a deliberate bait and switch, to build evidence around rules specifically being introduced to hamper us. Rather than any actual desire to loan players from Saudi

status quo, thats all FFP about. it is just painted as a "fair play" fake ethos, but nothing fair about it. there are many things can be done to prevent clubs go to administration but under FFP you can easily get into administration due to dodgy owners without actually overspending. but thats ok under FFP. what is not OK to have ambition to take on the red tops and Spurs and take away important CL places from them.

 

Leicester won the league within two years most of their best players ended up at top6 clubs. Mahrez, Kante, Drinkwater, Maguire etc. at least they saw good incomes for them. thats what top clubs wants if someone challenges them from the outside at least they quickly rip them apart. thats the plan with Brighton as well who are punching above their weight but will face constantly poached their talent they built up from peanuts spending s simply they cant match salaries and offer same trophy chances as top6 clubs.

 

they are shitscared of Newcastle who already took a CL place front of Liverpool last season, no wonder all the delay and blocking the takeover not long ago. and we can see through FFP limits that we may need to wait years before being back in CL which is may not be what our players want especially the ones we want to sign to really improve us. will Isak, Bruno, Botman, Tonali etc stick around if we have no CL for next 2 seasons if they have offers from CL clubs for even higher salaries?

thats the whole point of status quo.

 

it is brutally hard under FPP to grow both commercially and sporting wise we would almost would need constant top class transfer windows with all signings to be a hit, never a flop, certainly not an injury nightmare like this season and still hoping 2-3 rivals for CL places will heavily underperform at the same time with their much stronger/expensive squad while we overperform.

Wages/Turnover (22/3) ratio is down to 75% from last years 95%

Yasir Al-Rumayyan, the chairman of Newcastle United and LIV Golf, faces being sued for allegedly “having carried out the instructions” of the Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman (MBS), with “the malicious intent” of “harming, silencing and ultimately destroying” the family of the country’s former intelligence chief, Dr Saad Aljabri.

The claims are made in legal papers that were dispatched to Al-Rumayyan at multiple high-profile locations — including St James’ Park, Newcastle United’s home stadium, during the second week of January.

Typically grim stuff unfortunately. Fuck knows where the truth lies in it all but I can’t imagine there are many people in positions of power in KSA whose hands are clean

UEFA limit is 70% 

So still not ideal 

 

Same situation 

 

Need more sponsors / income/ turnover in order to spend / pay decent wages

Put this entire season in the bin. Can’t be arsed with it anymore. Fully expecting to lose half the playing squad, the entire backroom staff and 3/4’s of SJP in a fucking gas explosion next.
