João Pedro - Chelsea Agree Deal With Brighton (Ornstein)

[Joe_F]

Well fuck him then

[soyt]

Been trying to stay away from the transfer topics, but i have to ask one thing. If there is strong rumors that Brighton want 60 mil for Pedro, and we really really want him, then why don't we just pay them the 60 mil and get it done? Or is the PSR thing so tight that 10 mil makes all the difference and we have low ball?

 

(Well, if he does not want to come here anyways, then ok, move on)

As much as the pundits want to reiterate the message that ‘football is a business’ to stop fans asking questions - it isn’t.  Businesses don’t run up these type of losses with no scrutiny nor questions.   They aren’t valued at more than ten times their annual income.

 

Football clubs are community assets, ultimately, and fans aren’t customers. 

 

Said like a true fan and thats how it should be. But at best we are patrons to those within the game. People think because they go to a game they deserve a say, sadly we dont. if we want that privilege we needed 200,000 fans to put in £1,500 but the numbers fell well short, so we remain as we are

[Turnbull2000]

Probably an extra £50,000 salary per week at least, plus London living. Also a free hit for Chelsea with £50m+ from the Club World Cup (never mind £300m from selling their own assets to themselves). The fuckers can probably afford to do this just to spite us. Can't compete with that. Move on.

It’s in the rules that we can buy non footballing assets - doesn’t impact PSR - and then sell it.  Does impact PSR positively.  
 

Car parks, hotels, absolutely anything. We can sell it. We can even buy it - to sell it.  
 

I ask you - what is stopping the club from doing that?

 

Youre talking about one particular asset. A bit of imagination would lead you to other alternatives. 
 

Even in your example. We could sell it -  then buy it back (no impact to PSR). Re-sell it.  It’s just moving assets around.  

 

 

 

Do we own car parks in central London,  do we own hotels in central london?  we dont own our stadium and our womens team value is low.  What else can we sell for a price that will impact positively on our PSR?  The most valuable things I.e womens team is not that valuable at the moment. 

What other options do you know?  You might not want to admit it, but our Club at the moment is in transition, and the value of our assests are not at the level of Chelsea.

 

To be honest. You come across as an ultracrepidarian. I think thats why you vary and broaden your argument to a point where it doesn't make sense, ie you begin to waffle.

 

Like I said, the club should wait to see what everyone else does and how UEFA handles Chelsea and Villa while figuring out their next move. It's not like things haven't been going well on the pitch.

 

And yeah, like @STM said, morals are important. We wanna win the right way.

“Only wanted Chelsea…” The End

[gdm]

The inevitable implosion of Chelsea when they run out of loopholes is going to hit like crack 

[nemtizz]

'Only wanted Chelsea' reeks of Boehly offering him a couple 14 year olds.

[HayDen Traces]

I thought 7 year contracts were binned?

[Guybrush]

I've said it before and I'll say it again. To compete with Chelsea, we just need to organise that the winner of the Sela cup gets a prize of a hundred billion pounds. Once that's sorted, invite a few non league teams, and maybe Man U, win the cup and we're sorted.

 

It's full proof. Full. Proof.

Amortisation limited to being spread over 5 years max but you can give as long a contract as you like

You can give as long a contract as you like, but the amortisation for PSR purposes will be to a maximum of 5 years.

Only their amortisation function has been blocked. The deals are amortised across a max of five years regardless of contract length.

Fuck this cunt, man. Enjoy the fucking bench.

[JT24]

I’m fine, thanks for asking. 

[SUPERTOON]

Didn’t pay the asking price in the end either.

I need to know, do you legitimately think the phrase is full proof and not foolproof, or am I just missing the joke?
