Thinking FFP wouldn’t really come in and then Everton and Forrest got their arses handed to them by the PL. Thus most teams in the PL have reacted in a negative way and said. Fuck this shit is real.

Colos Short and Curlies Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 1 minute ago, Isaksbigrightfoot said: Hence why we are trying to sell players. P.S you don’t know what I do for a living. I guarantee you 100% we are on the brink of FFP breach. As it stands right now. Bayern bid for Trips at an amount that would give a decent profit in the year for him. We turned it down. We won’t get a higher price for Miggy or Wilson than we would now. If we are looking to sell either one it is either to buy now or to add to the pot for the summer. again, if we needed to sell we would have by now. yes we are close to the limit but we are not past it. and I can see enough to know you don’t work in finance, have just started out or are pretty bad at it 😊 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck this shit is real. we didn’t flirt on the brink at all. they knew that between the takeover and 30th June last year they had a certain amount to spend and worked within it. they also knew they had a certain amount this year, and have worked to it. It’s called business planning and they’ve done it whilst being whiter than white with the rules (other than our shithousery on the pitch of course) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn't this really be one of those occasions where you hope you're wrong? Rather than gloating about the team you support being unable to strengthen at a crucial point in the season?

Oh and your clearly not a good auditor because I didn’t say we where past the FFP threshold yet. That we are close. And that this season we will without sales possibly breach it. No abuse backwards needed. Let’s just see how things unfold. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they may have just shit the bed. There is nothing wrong with speculating to accumulate. But I think we are closer to the wire than some might want to believe.

Away Toon Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Newcastle could sell English striker Callum Wilson, 31, for just £18m in the final week of the January transfer window, with Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United all alerted to his availability. (Standard) Newcastle United are closely monitoring Nottingham Forest's English forward Morgan Gibbs-White, 23, for a January move.

(Football Insider) I'd take that, great finisher but he's injured for over half the season, every season and he's 31. 18 mil would essentially be 54 million re FFP purposes.
