This is a photo shop picture and what exactly does in "principle" mean - not wishing to throw shade but I am not getting all giddy until I know he is officially signed.

 

Aww :aww:

As I understand it, that phrase is being used because the actual 'effective date' of the transfer will not be until this Friday, 1st July 2022.

 

That is because the current accountability period for FFP ends on the 30th June, and wef from 1st July the next period starts.

 

 

I love that. Got Ashworth's stamp all over it.

Leeds have accepted a bid from Chelsea apparently.

That's fine, we just need to sign whoever in their youth team that is a forrin that's plays the same position so we can be 100% sure he will become one of the best players in the world as the rest seem to.

Could we have loaned him for say £15mill until Friday and then buy him then for the balance thus splitting the fee?

What an exciting fucking signing this is, man. We've had some canny CBs through the years; Colo was mint for a couple years, Lascelles has had his moments, Yanga-Mbiwa was a Pardewed talent, Lejeune, Schar... but, fuck... I've been gasping for another Woodgate ever since the daft Smoggie shite went to Madrid. Be so class if we've picked someone up who's at that level.

Anyone else actually think they’re dreaming? Ashley gone, plans for new training facilities, Bruno, Trippier, Botman all signed?

 

I know its a cliche but at times it does almost feel like is this really happening

I blame fantasising about this really happening for so long I don't know what's legit and what's dreaming about a post Ashley world after the latest act of sabotage just to keen sane.

I don't see how that helps from a FPP point of view. FFP is calculated over three years, if anything from a FFP point of view we'd want the first chunk of his fee in the previous year because it would be gone from the calculation a year sooner.

 

 

 

 

 

Have to say this is what I thought as well....although I admittedly know fuck al. 

 

On the flip side could it help Lille from an FFP point of view?  Poasibly one of the complications of the negotiations.
