All of these reporters have been talking about June 30th as a deadline, now he's saying 'well they can declare a near miss deal', which there isn't any provision for in the rules (although I don't lnow if it the income could be put into the previous year in accounting terms?)

 

Seem like he's setting it up so if sales don't happen by Sunday he's not shown to be wrong.

 

 

 

True. We don't know what will happen. But if Teams make sales in early July to become compliant, will they still be hit with points deductions?

 

Forest played Johnson 3 times when they sold him and it was months after the deadline passed which I think is a big difference.

 

Who knows.

 

If we need to sell. We are cutting it fine.

 

Everything about FFP has seemed arbitrary. Clubs are shuffling because now we know points deductions will follow.

And we won't actually know anything until at least March, which is when this year's accounts are submitted to the PL. Any punishment probably wont come until 25/26.

If we’ve left it this late then it’s gross mismanagement unless our intent is to start challenging the rules (which we’ve shown no interest in doing directly).

 

Given that we’ve displayed no sign of being mismanaged thus far then I can only assume we have no problem. It’s not hard to fathom that our revenue is higher than most are projecting. You can comfortably estimate around £330m. Not insane to think it’s actually £340-350.

Didn't they change that this season to make sure any punishment was dished out the season after the breach? That's why Everton ended up with two deductions in one season.

Begs the question - why weren't these deals in the pipeline sooner than 48 hours before breach?

 

Probably wanted them to count towards next year not this. This is probably pur safety net....Oz and a couple of small sponsor deals.

25/26 would be the next season, the PSR caculation isn't submitted until 31st March.

Hopefully we're looking at doing all the smartarse shit we can.

 

Not sure if there's any precedent, but we could try argue Tonali's fee shouldn't be amortised whilst he's under a ban as he's not a useable asset, which could save us close to £10m this year.

 

Also, when selling, as cash isn't an issue, could we sell the player but have the entire payment due after 5 years?  Assuming 3% inflation - a £40m sale at the start of year 1, which could be banked as profit, would only be an equivalent £34.5m payment by the end of year 5 after adjusting for inflation.  Helps us on FFP and also helps the buying club with cash.

I believe Everton's second points deduction (2pts) was relating to the period ending June 2023 (22/23 season) and was applied in the 23/24 season. That would suggest that if we were over the limit this season (23/24), it'd be applied in the coming season (24/25)

 

Edit - This is the article I'm using as a source

 

Quote

Everton have been deducted two points for a second breach of Premier League financial rules.

 

Profit and sustainability rules (PSR) permit clubs to lose £105m over three years and an independent commission found Everton breached that by £16.6m for the three-year period to 2022-23.

The most recent from today was from Ben Jacobs, 30 million by Sunday.

I still think it was only £6m, and we've covered that now. 

Don’t think we would be trying to sell Minteh this soon if that was the case.

In installments. So does add up when you think of the fee we paid, any sell to his old club.

Comes back to the exploitation of the loopholes to the maximum imo. If Chelsea can get away with (legally) selling themselves a hotel for £80m to dodge a breach of PSR then why can't we (legally) sign 50 1-year sponsorship deals for all manner of shite for £999,999 each? Each one is below a million so exempt from PL validation and there's nothing that I'm aware of that could be done to block it. They'd probably have to look at the rules again to stop others doing it but the first club to do it should get away with it. This is a completely rigged situation, this is not normal for clubs to be flat-out prevented from investing it's own cash. 

 

I was all for playing nice and doing things the 'right' way but that's not working. Fuck it. Take the piss. The more ridiculous the better. Sponsor fucking everything that's not nailed down

Why do you think our top youngster is linked to so many clubs?

Or just sponsor the obvious, training kit/ground. Quite frustrating we haven’t done that already.

So in a discussion on when a transfer becomes final you've brought in a piece of text that relates to a different matter altogether.

 

What a player agrees for the end of their contract is irrelevant here, a transfer will be completed once all obligations are completed including passing a medical. It is at that point all of the conditions have been met and transfer of the players registration takes place.

Here’s how this all started

But thats not a legally binding sale until the medical concludes

 

terraloon said:

 

Interesting enough it’s one of the reasons why pre contracts aren’t all they seem in that if a pre contract is agreed then even if there  is a subsequent medical issue that issue can not usurp the pre contract.

Also there actually isn’t any obligation for a buying club to have the player conduct a medical it is just that it makes good business sense to do one

 

 I can’t be arsed to discuss this topic further save saying   that yes most registrations are concluded at the same time as a transfer but many transfers don’t result in players being registered with their parent club.

Agreed, but why can't it be nailed down?
