Keegans Export Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 The problem is that clubs' accounts are (often) public record, but the PSR calculations submitted to the PL aren't. It opens the League up to claims of cronyism when they tell us teams are compliant with PSR and their evidence is essentially "Trust me bro". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 We'll see proof of the Premier Leagues desire to protect the six clubs now. Wait and see how Man Utd get away with it, same way Chelsea and City are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfcastle Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 (edited) Just fully expect nothing to happen and preferential treatment, even redrafting of rules to allow for it at this point. Football has normalised and legalised corruption in plain sight that would have looked an absolute elite insulating stich up even a decade ago and its now greeted like a virtue in many quarters. That's it good to have the same teams at the top indefinitely all of a sudden. Having ambition and the funds to pay for it when it comes from outside the elite is now seen being seen and absorbed as 'cheating' and something akin to a regimen of doping or multiple charges of match fixing.

All it takes to prevent any redraft of the rules is seven clubs, us, city, EFC, NFFC, Villa and LCFC, thats six and I’m sure that group of clubs are capable of lobbying one or two others. It is possible, they tried at the AGM to change the rules re CFC and the sale of hotels to themselves and it was voted down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bitter pill to swallow, but I really think that those who run the PL believe they are looking after national interests by protecting the cartel clubs from penalties. They see them as national assets which sell the PL across the globe - and I suppose they might have a point. It's not that surprising that they bend over backwards to try to accomodate them as much as they can. Financial Fair Play is a bit of a piss take description of what this process is really about.

Is City a cartel club? They are literally taking them to court. How is that protecting them? What evidence is there they are "bending over backwards" to protect them?

To a lesser extent Spurs and Chelsea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
