FFP Meeting

[toonviking]

The PL are meeting today and likely to add agree to align their FFP rules with those of UEFA i.e. clubs will be allowed to spend a maximum of 70% of their revenue on player costs (wages, transfer fees and agent fees).

So, basically no change, as the clubs with the largest revenues (the usual suspects) will be allowed to spend more than the rest and outbid the others for the best players.

There’s some crackpot suggestion to include infrastructure investment in this value too which surely won’t be approved (it would be illegal anyway).

It’s all bolox. My view: scrap all FFP rules and then cap wages and transfer fees. This would control the immoral amounts of money being paid, clip the wings of the agents and help reduce the big club bias. Players are still going to want to join Liverpool rather than Wolves but, at least on paper, both clubs would (financially) have the same chance of signing a player.

Pointless meeting. Its only to protect the top 6 REVENUE clubs.

Its riddicouls that owners cant put as much money as they like into their business.

The way it should be: if a club have debt or any sort of business loans, they should be restricted up against their revenue. Because that whats REALLY dangerous for a club existance.

No debt, spend as much as you like as long as its not a loan from to owners to the club, so the owners can demand a payback. It must be money put into the club.

Corrupt rules designed to protect top 6 (in revenue), so they get the advantage. These rules will only stop smaller clubs to evolve into something bigger.

Finacial Unfair Play, thats what it is.
