Maybe someone can correct me here? Yes, it looks like that's the case. Honestly, looks like a bad deal since La liga will generate more than the fronted amount in the coming 50 years.

A deal designed to divide the teams though so it may work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 (edited) FFP is stupid anyway. If a club can afford to buy someone they should be able to whether it seems unfair or not. If a club spends beyond their means and are skint/in debt, they should have to sell players, etc. Edited August 9, 2021 by Optimistic Nut Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 UEFA/FIFA/the FAs allow these owners in, so if they deem them ‘fit and proper’ and they can use their wealth to buy who they want with whatever money they’ve got, it should be fair game imo.

Aye, I can't see why they can't put their own money in, it's the leverage buy outs that should be stopped but those are the ones that go through the quickest.

SEMTEX Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I don't think it should just be wild west but FFP is clearly utter wank. Hard salary cap. Job done. You can even make it an astronomical number. Just not as astronomical as the top 10 wage bills in Europe or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a career where you're making loads of cash and move around cities a bit, buy a house in every city you're traded to, keep 'em for a decade or so after while renting them to other footballers who pass through during their career, sell for profit.

tgarve Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Colo had a nice house in Jesmond Park West as far as I remember- pretty disgusting that a player as shit as Hendrick can be in that same price bracket to rent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE27 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Listened to the last free true faith podcast. I'm gobsmacked they are still pretty excited about returning to the match. Using the excuse of "seeing the lads" and "having a few pints in the boozer" just seem moronic. They could do that without attending the game itself, but if one of their mates is going then they don't want to miss out. This is why no actual worthwhile action will be levelled at Ashley/PL as fans are led by their heart and an almost bound by duty notion. Don't want to go at fans, just my thoughts from and apathetic tired fan point of view. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
