Clubs effectively lose points following these rules as well as not following them. Could probably calculate the risk if they ever get down what deduction you'd get for what "over spend" you commit which is why it'll remain random.

The main issue is the whole process is so opaque. A club could do something they anticipate will be a four point deduction and it could end up being eight. You'd have to know you're signing up for a legal battle and, fair or not, it'd be much higher profile if it was Saudi led Newcastle as opposed to Bournemouth or something.

According to Borsen it's probably Leicester and possibly Chelsea, who have to curve a gap of 150 million according to him on Talksport

 

 

So just Leicester then.

I'm surprised the football agents aren't challenging the legality of psr by now, it's must be costing them a fortune with the lack of transfer activity. Hopefully the premier league realise how damaging this is to the brand before it's too late.

Tbf, if it's just Leicester and Chelsea, they might just decide to punish Leicester twice.

PSR prevents me from spunking money up the wall.

 

PSR just needs you to take it up the arse a bit before you can let it go. Be a team player you selfish fuck.

Exactly. This is why the rules and punishment were written in such an opaque way and also why Evertons initial punishment was so severe. It was a clear message to upstarts such as ourselves to not even think about it.

Also an issue would be if you breach heavily and say only got 4 points. The likelyhood is then you would obviously keep breaching again and again until you sold a high value player to make up the deficit. So then you would get regular points deductions. And as others have said, the punishments are so unclear, who knows if each additional points deduction doesn't get more and more severe each time. 

 

It's all fucked really and I guess it could be argued we are doing it the right way in terms of trying to keep hold of our best players and build slowly. Rather than sell a top star and try to rebuild quicker. But for this method to be more effective, we have to try and flog the dead wood or surplus high earners better than we have and replace with cheaper and younger talent. Easier said than done. Also need more sponsors.
