QPR hit with £40m FFP fine

Again, we keep getting told FFP is to protect clubs from being mismanaged and “doing a Portsmouth” but in reality it’s there to protect he established elite.

QPR are a great club and this could ruin them. I still don’t get the idea that an owner can’t own a club and spend his own money on it. Absolute nonsense to me.

I wouldn’t be surprised if following a vote, the proceeds of this fine were to be distributed amongst all multiple winners of the CL.

Nah, only those with Newton Heath origins!

It is to most people but this is football's answer to 'governance'!

“I’m not sure my PR department likes it,” he says of his extensive Twitter output. “But I like transparency. And I’ve had some good tips, we’ve signed players people have pointed out, I’ve had good suggestions on ticketing. It’s like when I go to the pub. After the game the other day, a couple of guys had some great ideas on catering. They said to me: ‘Tony, if you had staff who knew what they were doing pouring the beer you’d double the amount you sold’. I thought: I’ll look into that.”
