If FFP was truly designed to ensure financial stability, it would stress-test clubs' finances to cope with situations like having to repay contracted loans or other debts and monitor cashflow carefully. So it might ask the question "How would you cope without any income for 3 months?"
Please, Mr taxpayer, bail us out. Pretty please.
 
I'm outraged at the cynicism shown by Bluemooners about FFP. I feel I have to remind everyone that clubs like Manchester United, Barcelona, Real Madrid et al are quite capable of servicing their increasing debts because of the huge crowds they have attracted over many,many years and the huge sponsorship deals they make, both of which keep their cash flow healthy in all circumstances. Clubs like City, on the other hand have no exit strategy should trickle down from the big clubs dry up. FFP is there for City's good.
Clarkie.
 
Under normal circumstances I would of felt pity for Burnley, harmless club serving the local community, punching above there weight.
But then they jumped into bed with the other sly self serving 7 clubs and signed that letter to uefa, that along with Dyches continuous whineing about our spending, so now fuck em, hope they go bust and suffer a slow painful demise from which they never recover.
Same here, dude. I’ve a friend who’s a Burnley fan - and closet Red - and so I’ve taken an interest in their recent history and always regarded them as a positive example of what can be achieved through honesty and hard work.

Only to see they’re now part of the “Hateful Eight”. I was surprised by their skulduggery but then again: it was naive of me to think they’d mind their own business. Anyway, time will tell what will come of the mighty Burnley but I hope they learn some manners.
 
"We all need to do our bit , together as ONE CLUB"

What an insolent fucker ! Hope they crash and burn.
Insolent. I love that word and was commonly used by Dumas in his Three Musketeers trilogy. Insolent wretch as one example.

Clubs would have to have an annual wage bill of around 30% i there income! players get a standard wage then pay them much more for games played games won games drawn trophies won to get there pay up to the going rate now.
 
Just saying a quick Hi To Rui Pinto, not sure of your user name but I am sure this is the first thread you will read when you log in.
