While I agree to a decent extent that we are controlling some flow of information, when it comes to the transfers and PSR stuff then there would have been far more people involved both internally and externally who would have been able to tell if we were in trouble. A leak could have come from many places. In terms of Mitchell, the leak could only have come from within or from Mitchell so it’s a much smaller pool. I think we have overplayed our PSR mess but I also think some of it has probably been shared by people outside of our circles 

 

Aye, completely agree with this, for example the Kilman stuff came from the Wolves end.

 

...but the club were briefing anyone who would listen.

Did we not need to raise my money than we got for the Minteh sale? You don't think we can surmise that at least?

We had to raise some, no idea if the Minteh sale was enough or if we needed more.

Do you not think it's likely that we needed more? Considering we made another sale + agreed comp for Ashworth by the deadline?

 

Like.. if this was Man Utd - wouldn't you assume safely that's what they needed to do?

Aight man. You got it. I'm out.

 

It's possible but far too much missing for anything conclusive.

Leicester's appeal against the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability charge has been rejected by an independent commission. 
 

The commission has ruled the top flight can punish the Foxes for an alleged breach for the three seasons leading up to 2022-23 after they were charged in March. 

 

Leicester appealed against the charge as they were in the English Football League (EFL) at the time it was issued and felt the Premier League had no jurisdiction, having been relegated in 2023, but the commission has ruled English football's top flight can continue pursuing them.

 

Leicester are appealing against the latest ruling. A statement said: “LCFC notes the publication today of the decision of the Premier League Commission. The Club is disappointed with the decision, which does not appear to reflect the wording of the Premier League’s Rules, and has lodged an appeal.”

 

The Premier League confirmed the appeal had been dismissed.

 

"An independent Commission has dismissed a challenge by Leicester City FC that it has no jurisdiction to consider an alleged breach of Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSRs)," a statement read.

Punishing a club that has no financial difficulty as we've known it for a century and a half for not having their finances in order as relates new rules by pushing them towards a situation (relegations) that effects their actual finances in old school terms and with regards the new rules.

If we didn’t need the money then the agreements were beyond stupid.  Why rush them through before the 1st July when doing so afterwards would be far more beneficial to PSR this season?

Was 35mill for Anderson stupid ? Most are thinking it was a massively inflated price.

It is an insane amount for him - but it would be the stupidest thing imaginable to agree to sell him before that deadline unless it was needed because we were fucked under PSR.  Wait a couple of days and suddenly that 35m in this season's PSR calcs.

 

Which provides the substantiation that NUFC were a long, long way short on PSR - and Minteh's sale wasn't close to enough

It doesn’t make much difference for this year, we had to make a net loss of £35m (ish) over 2023/2024 and 2024/2025 with the only provision being that a gain of at least £35m had to be in 2023/2024.

 

so if we made an opportunistic sale

In 2023/2024 of say £30m on top of achieving the £35m profit the. We’ve simply got a position where we can make a bigger loss this year.

 

Its only year 3 where you have difference as the profit in year 0 drops out where you could have delayed this by a year by selling 01.07

This interview says we found ourselves needing £50-60M by the deadline.  We sold Anderson for £35M and Minteh for £30 to cover that and we sold Ashworth for at least £10 so we are starting out with some money for the next year I would think.

It’s possible we only needed a portion of Anderson’s fee on top of Minteh. 
 

If we needed all or most of it I’m honestly scared what our cost base has risen to.


They overpaid for sure. I’m guessing there’s an agreement there, they’ll get 15m over the odds for Elanga or MGW.. and balance shall be restored

Does it not change to squad ratio costs against turnover now ?

 

In line with UEFA model ?

They’ll be counting on City winning that related transaction thing and then it being thrown out. It will leave the door open then for increasing our revenue in that manner which will see the UEFA constrictions nullified.
