So we haven't bought anyone of note for nearly 2 years and are still at risk of failing PSR according to Stefan. These rules really are insufferable 

It’s completely ruined the transfer side of football which I used to love. I enjoyed following all the rumours, back pages and deadline days. Don’t pay any attention to it now as it’s overly complicated, seems inherently unfair and seems to lead nowhere.

It doesn’t - but back-of-a-fag packet calcs can be done; the picture is clearer once we know which competitions we’re in.  The issue is that our income for this season won’t have grown much in relation to last season, and the wages and amortisation won’t have changed by much at all this year

Most of these pundits are too lazy to put any time into researching things like

this. Only when it’s the footballing zeitgeist will they bother to bring it up. And only then as sensationalised phone in for thick cunts.

 

Stopped listening to football phone-ins years ago. It's like reading the Star to get political insights.

You know your stuff better than me here but miggy sale, losses from the spend from 3 seasons ago and going deeper into the league cup competition,stack money, Gordon contract extension pushing his amortisation spend to 5 years again must have helped alleviate most issues. Might prevent that June grey area spend but come the summer we must be OK.

 

Edit just clutching at straws here and just realised this whole losses from past windows wouldn't kick in until next financial year not in June.

Stories are starting to emerge about teams struggling to hit the 30th June limit. West Ham and Spurs have been mentioned so far.

Jarrod Bowen for £40m please.

Without even looking back at the numbers I don't see how Spurs could possibly have any sort of problem. What's the source on that?

People haven't really caught on to the gap that has grown. I said recently to a group of people that the clubs trying to create a mid-table moat around them like Fulham, Brighton, Brentford, Palace, etc. are arguably as big a problem as the ones at the top and they all thought I was crazy. The fact they are all southern clubs makes it worse too. Pulling the drawbridge up on clubs with long histories like Leeds, Sunderland, the Sheffield clubs, West Brom, etc. feels especially wrong. 

The clubs you mentioned + any pursuing innovative models are the only ones capable of breaking that southern belt. 
 

There’s also a semi permanent underclass of yo-yo teams.  They have the greatest chance of breaking into that mid pack eventually. Burnley, Southampton, Leeds, previously Fulham and Norwich.  Most of these are southern too.

They've earned £530m, £550m and £450m and they haven't spent crazy money (compared to the other big earners) so I'd be very surprised. 

 

Their problem is more cash on hand isn't it? Rather than falling foul of FFP

Yeah, I hope at least one of Leeds, Burnley, Sheffield United / mackems stay up next season. I think Leeds with their new owners, planned stadium expansion, etc. have the best chance.

We sign him for £60m, they sign Longstaff from us for £30m.

Tony Bloom one of the mouth pieces who objected to Villa’s request to raise the limit on losses, yet is having to loan his club 400 million.

 

In what world would we want to raise the amount clubs can lose he claimed, and it’s imperative we keep a level playing field.

 

What a smarmy cartel cuck this cunt is.
