    Wich in proper norwegian translates to, the PL is one of the most corrupt business on the planet. Alongside norwegian salmon industry. But they are still a bounch of money grabbing *****s, so eventually, they will lock into it and let us spend OUR OWN money. Not money that some bank in the US or whatever owns.

    Its just a mess. A mess with bo sense. There is only one word for that, corrupt. All from the top to the very bottom.

    It is pathetic, like. Chelsea can already spend 4 fould more than non cartel clubs by following the rules.
    It just shows the absolute greed in the game now.

    I think this sums it up very well indeed.

    Well I'll leave the 'Price of Fish' to the Hamburg legends of happy hardcore, rave and techno music Scooter & you mad Wegies!



    When it comes to financial regulations in the game of football it's clear that the current regulations are not fit for purpose. Not that they 'need tweaked', they are wrong on a wholesale level.

    The perfect scenario is for clubs to promote players through the academy to the first team '11 first team Geordies' to quote a legend.

    The current model is diametrically opposed to that goal. Clubs have to sell their '100% profit assets' from their academy to generate revenue.

    Not only is this bad for the fans and the identity of any club but it furthers the culture of players being no more than products on a conveyer belt churned out for profit. The human element, the passion of community which is the driving force behind every team in every city is so massively important.

    Someone mentioned Chelsea. Their owner is a perfect example of how to game the system, use the rules to the full extend without a care for the value of the club, identity of the fans or the future of the game. A pure and simple money grab.

    We can't let our national heritage, our beloved sport become that irrelevant commercial enterprise that is US sporting entertainment.
