Chelsea Thread - 2023/24

Surely there is severe punishment for a big breach in FFP? Even allowing for new owner spending rules there is no way they can stay within the limits.
Having gone back over some old articles and extrapolated the numbers I think Chelsea will fail 22/23 PL P&S and 23/24. Can’t see how they can’t fail 22/23. I reckon they left Mason Mount to 2023/24 to at least give them a chance of hitting 23/24

Just seems a pisstake that they just proceed with doing it though and face a fine which the is nothing in reality?
 
It's about the ridiculous amounts of money changing hands and was it actually paid.
Or just a circumnavigation navigation of FFP

But no-one accuses Real Madrid of circumventing FFP when they received 70 million from us for Morata. Or Inter receiving 97 million from us for Lukaku. That's just bad spending on our part but god forbid we get a decent fee for a player and it's tin foil hats everywhere :)
 
Tbf, we don't know what they did and probably never will. But I doubt very much it was one or two minor transactions in the 8 years. It sounds systematic to me, and significant enough to warrant a 10 million fine. I would really like to know more.
£1.5 Billion owner investment since 2003. Written off, forgotten and not investigated or sanctioned.
I know that FFP started after 2003, but for the purpose of simplicity and to see it in a different way that is equal to £80m per year.
Without £80m per year you would have failed FFP every year and probably not won as many trophies as you have.
*Perennial, *hypocrital *cheats. *Asterix everywhere.

City have won the hard way by having to be better on and off the field whilst often fighting again 12 men.
Our titles feel sweeter for it.
Only a City fan gets it.
"Edit" and Pep, which is why he has stayed so long because he wanted to beat the "system".

If someone was going to mount a legal challenge against FFP, I can imagine it being Todd Boehly's Chelsea.

My understanding is that large parts of the debt were entered into before Premier League or UEFA rules existed.
 
Thought that debt was going to the Ukraine
I don't think that was ever the plan. Proceeds from the sale are going to Ukraine, which I believe is still the case. RA's historical loans are a separate issue as I understand it.
