Certainly is, it’ll be interesting what gets voted through especially in regard to associated party rules which i believe a few clubs hope will be relaxed.

Abacus Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Anchoring would have been ok for us in the short term - it would have held down the richer clubs a bit allowing us more time to catch up while we're constrained by the revenue rules. Saying that, I did read an article that said the anchoring limit would actually make no difference to Man City's current spend, so I'm not sure how much it would have held them back in reality. But yes, in the wider scheme of things it's a bad idea as we're competing against other European leagues too, so it's not just internal competition. Just as the current PSR rules are a bad idea for clubs like us, and consequently for the whole league. One small example - give us the money to have invested last summer to compete in the CL, and there's every chance we at least hold on against PSG, qualify for the next round and from there who knows. Would have given the English leagues European coefficient a boost anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mase Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Rules brought in to stop teams like you from developing and keeping the teams in red “at the top”. I can’t pretend to understand it all, but if it’s against the Premier League and benefits us as well as yous then I’m all for it. Bear in mind we wouldn’t bring legal action against the PL if we weren’t confident of winning, it’s not really something our boys do. So I’m guessing we’ve been given the nod by the lawyers to say it’s worth pushing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It stinks. On par with Man United and Liverpool vetting Masters before he was given the job at the PL. Speaking of which, I wonder when he’ll resign… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
