timeEd32 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Worth noting that, just like last time there was a vote that led to pages upon pages of speculation, this was another vote to pursue / develop something. Nothing became a rule today. The real vote(s) happen in June. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucasol Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 1 hour ago, Mazzy said: Interesting that Chelsea abstained and also interesting Villa voted against it. Obviously understandable why both Manchester clubs did though. Must seemingly be positive for ourselves else you'd hope we'd have voted against it. Suprising that it will be ratified this summer, I thought it would take longer than that. Surprised with the Man Utd lot as I thought US owners were up for this.

Marquee Moon Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Seems good for us if im understanding right. Maybe no immediate benefit, but as long as the club continues to go all in on increasing revenue we'll one day be able to spend with the 'big boys'. Unlike now where they just accelerate away faster than we're allowed to catch up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 I’d imagine Man U are planning to spend a shed load this summer and this may temper their spending. I’m hoping we’ve got a means to increase our income and that rules on related party deals are relaxed. Anyone know how much money you can generate from the UEFA Conference League? Surely finishing 7th and being limited to spending 70% has to turn out better than finishing 8th and have 85% to play with? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazzy Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Would've been hilarious if this was started last season. All the big clubs expecting the "bottom" club to be Burnley or Sheffield Utd and it ends up being far far worse and it's Luton instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonBez comesock Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 (edited) Long term it’s not going to help us either …… if we do massively boost turnover in the next 5 years it means Man City / Man United / Arsenal / Chelsea / spurs / Villa , Liverpool …Etc ….can match our spending and offer the same contracts , transfer fees As it stands today it helps us marginally as it stops them getting further ahead ……other than that it doesn’t help us at all Unless!!!

gbandit Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Struggling to get excited even if it does benefit us. Find the political stuff off the pitch saps my love of the game.

Optimistic Nut Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 2 hours ago, et tu brute said: UEFA rules I imagine will fall in line. It's all down to increased sponsorship/commercial deals anyway. There is fundamentally a requirement to increase revenue. Yeah, will hit UEFA commercially if the top English clubs are failing and the likes of Brighton and Palace are playing in the CL.

I know that’s a fantasy but the more this shit filters through the more it makes me want to switch off The problem I have with the rules is they don't do anything at all to help make the league more competitive, even though they keep telling us they do. Any rules that are tied to income keep the top clubs at the top and promoted clubs fighting relegation, every single season. The whole thing needs to be scrapped and if they insist on implementing rules then do it with genuine fairness so everyone can compete if they want. I'm not saying all 20 clubs have a shot at winning the title but if teams like us and Villa have ambitions to do it then the path should be clear without the Premier League putting obstacles in our way.
