Hoisted By Their own Petard... You know that letter that Arsenal sent out about the introduction of Premier League FFP... Well its come back to bite them. They cant spend money in the Transfer Windiw or they break the spending limit for the season. Excuse me while I laugh....
https://www.football365.com/news/emery-shock-arsenal-can-only-loan-players-this-month I don't buy it myself tbh, more likely the board just don't want to spend.
I agree. It reeks of another ruse by the Arsenal owners who never want to invest properly in their club. The stadium narrative was just spin because they made a fortune on the properties developed at Highbury. I think even the staunchest gooners (who used to blame us for their decline) can now see they have been taken for a ride by their owners. FFP is popular with those owners who are in football to line their own pockets. Joe Lewis could have paid for Spurs new stadium out of his own pocket freeing up £500m for players but the Spurs fans have also been duped.
Pleased that West Ham won today, bur relying on the Arse to keep the rags out of the top 6 is a waste of time. Fucking pathetic performance today , hopefully Spuds show some fucking backbone tomorrow .
