I'm not sure many have missed them, just ignored them as irrelevant, personally I find the whole thing purely laughable.

ADUG had it covered before UEFA announced it.

As I said above, imagine if we won the CL this year, or were runners up (even semi finalists), while we won the PL. and they tried to ban us, firstly they be laughed around Europe, and when we took them to legal proceedings (and mentioned PSG or Monaco) they'd look incredibly f**king stupid.

My main annoyance about FFP is it is so obviously aimed at us but you can't prove it. When Chelsea got taken over and spunked the cash and won the league x number of times nothing was said. The minute we did it's suddenly a disgrace that must be stopped by bringing in new laws which not only stop us but any other small club from being bought and invested in. I can't wait for it to fail to shut every single person who says we "ruined football" when they'd been at it for years themselves.

.... its cos Abramovich only had £10bn, Mansour had £55bn. UEFA had £11bn and couldn't see how they'd make the other £44bn from corruption and bribery alone .....

FFP actually started development in 2003, the same year as the Chelsea takeover

I think Chelsea were definitely the thing that got them planning FFP, but obviously it was too late to do anything about Chelsea. Unfortunately for them, it's also come a bit late to stop us too, but long term, it definitely stops future threats to their dominance.

As for Chelsea, well it's not a massive surprise that this comes out the day before we play them, even though they've never (for obvious reasons) gone on the offensive about other teams' finances in thee past. It seems that some at Chelsea didn't want to be seen to be a hypocrite. But we all know Mourinho has no problem being a hypocrite.

spot on. It's a team sport that involves a great amount of skill. It can never be fair as skills come at a price. Always have always will. If I wanted to watch a sport that was based on pure commitment and no skill then I would watch a marathon every week. I have great respect for athletes but that would bore the shit out of me. Ffp can't work.
