I think pretty much anyone doing FFP math is basing it on £105m allowable losses over a three year period, so the former isn't that interesting. The latter is more interesting though as it does seem like one of the biggest FFP loopholes out there. It's quite vague and you wouldn't even really know the impact of it until accounts come out a couple years later.

If I were the club i'd be offering him a £10k per million he can find extra that they don't know about, however I reckon they know it all by now, and if not, they'd paid someone else to find it.

He's saying it's good because it's a further commitment from the owners, but it doesn't tell us anything about future spending capabilities. It doesn't really "fix" FFP unless all of that money is being used for the things you can take deductions on (which would be bold and also seems unlikely).

STM Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 I reckon we will have the funds for one... if we need it and by need, I don't mean want. Alot will come down to who is available at that particular time and which clubs need to sell etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 Jarred Bowen being link this morning. Think that would be a canny signing to be honest, as I can't think of a more suited current Premier League right winger that would fit our play style more then him.

gbandit Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 Feels like one of those players that will stay at West Ham until he’s getting on a bit and then will transfer to somewhere like Spurs but maybe I’m doing him an injustice. I think he’d be very good for us but for some reason he just feels like one of those who will stick around at his club for years to come Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 Probably a lazy link like, but I'd be really happy with Bowen albeit we'd be putting a lot of our eggs in the English basket a bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 Bowen is EXACTLY in line with our recent purchases. He's at a good age/experience, his wages won't be astronomical either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 Just now, WilliamPS said: What’s wrong with having a load of English players (or any nationality really!), makes no difference if they are good enough Just a phases thing. For a time French footballers were in vogue because of how they'd been coached from grassroots level, then Spanish, Germans, Portuguese, now English. If/when this phase ends and there's a new style of coaching and football comes in from a new area, we've gone fairly heavily all in on one so it'll be harder to back away from it if we need to.
