    Financial Fair Play

    Can someone explain how Forest sell their two prized assets for £7m (?) to comply with FFP and then the next day spend c. the same amount on the Peterborough striker.

    Am I missing some obvious loophole in FFP ?

    Incidentally seemed like Darlow and Lascelles were the real deal whereas this striker (can't spell his) must be a gamble

    You have to make money to spend money that's it

    But next year... The players they then lose will not generate FFP credits as they have used those to balance this year's spending.
