If this happens does that mean Man City don't get to face their sanctions or any of the other bigger clubs?

Because if this is the case then all Everton and forest should have their points reinstated.
Something is starting to stink worse than a skunks underpants.

FFP/PSR were invented to protect the cartel.

I'm suspicious of anything they come up with as, one thing's for sure, it'll be designed, first and foremost, to aid the cartel.

However, if it frees up our ability to spend then it's got to be a good thing. Are these all just rumours at the minute?

It has to be scrapped or changed very soon otherwise the premier league could collapse to a European super league.

The fans made an uproar the last time the the SL was touted, it came out of no where there’s more clubs now effected by spending restrictions and there’s no way clubs can match the top 6 clubs commercially without serious investment first. I wonder would there be such an uproar now over a super league?

Also SKY the main source of money can’t be happy, reporting on big transfers is a big revenue earner for them.

It’s a real mess and it needs sorting quick.

They’d still be up for punishment as they broke the rules of the time

Luxury tax rather than points deductions for clubs that go over the PSR limits.

Sounds fishy AF to me. This is just a way for the fraud 6 to placate the likes of villa & Us who have wealthy owners but doesn't get to the root of the competitive issues regarding spending.

This doesn't resolve the associated sponsorship issues. It still hamstrings the club in terms of commercial revenue. They can only spend what they earn or be fined an unknown amount in penalties that will be distributed to our mid & lower table competitors, meaning they will be able to use our own money against us.

Say we go ahead and spend £400m on players and grow our wage bill to 90% of our revenue. Get huge fines, that money goes to the likes of Brentford, Fulham etc. Those teams can then spend more to strengthen their squads with money they didn't earn and their PSG limits grow whilst ours remain restricted.

It's utterly stupid on that score.

Not to mention that this is not aligned with UEFA's rules. Uefa only allows clubs who's wage bills are 70% or less of their total commercial revenue.

Which means we could finish 2nd and Uefa will block us from competing in the Champions League whilst a 6th place finish for Man U who's revenue streams are vastly larger than ours will be given the usual red carpet treatment.

It's like paying for an enemy's army in a direct battle against us.

Until the whole of European football can agree on what the hell is going on, I would be very skeptical that this 'Luxury tax' is anything other than another sneaky plan to suck more money out of our wealthy owners whilst not allowing us to become established as a top side.

There was talk about Sky getting mad about the last transfer window,

The transfer window coverage, the whole Sky crew clutching at straws. It was hilariously bad and showed them for the no nothing hacks they really are.

That Colon Sodacough fella's ridiculous pretentious all knowing tone of voice, like he's an insider with secret information only for none of his said would happen happened. haha

If it turns out they are guilty they will still get points deductions. The other clubs have received those punishments during that period.

City can't avoid that precedent that the EPL set by docking Everton & Forest.

The mess just gets worse and worse.

Masters et al is a complete muppet show.

Whatever the EPL does with these rules. English clubs will still have to adhere to the 70% revenue/wage rule to compete in Europe.

So it really doesn't matter that Sky want an exciting Transfer window/final day. Clubs with European Ambitions will have to still be comply to the EUFA rule.

Whilst NUFC's commercial revenues remain exponentially smaller than that of the Fraudies (thanks again to Fatso's dereliction of duty as owner) we're gonna face challenges to compete financially.
