Fifa say third party ownership banned from May 1 2015. Existing contracts valid until expiry & new deals signed 1 Jan-30 Apr '15 subject 1yr max. How will this impact us and our rivals in relation to FFP ?

I can see it dramatically changing how South American stars come over.

The main problem still remains however which is that countries like Portugal have no issues in getting work permits and even passports arranged.
That said of course they now can't afford to buy them anyway.
It will have serious consequences for countries like Portugal and all of South America in general I'd have thought.

Opens the door for someone like say, CFG, to buy a Portuguese club and take the FFPR hit but have the cash in the club to buy the South American stars,

Not a chance of us doing that, the negative press would be horrendous.

well, that's before thinking about group sponsorship deals that a CFG takeover bid could provide for said club, thus providing immediate "UEFA approved" income.

Or how they don't come over?
I wonder how many contracts are hurriedly getting renegotiated to be a 10 or 15 year deal for all the "next Neymar's"?

Give over. The press wouldn't do that to us, would they? There would definitely be an agenda against us if that happened.

Not read all 1300 pages but the ones I have read have some contributions from some clever folk, could one of you enlighten me cos I think it is "You Cant get enough revenue cos you are not in the champions league, so the only way to move forward is to pay over the odds on transfer fees and wages cos good players don't really want to come to a club that's not in the champions league. Then when you do that they fine and sanction you." Where am I going wrong with this?

You're not going wrong, that's about the size of it.

I cannot wait until the inter global cfg cup with special invites to the clubs who are on board with us.. not just the ones in the cfg Group but rm.psg, Valencia etc etc.. with prize Money that will not only blow them out of the water...but create a monster that eats Uefa for a snack.

Hope if Qatar are to buy a club its west ham.. that would be so funny..

Atletico Madrid only have half a dozen players that arent on 3rd party contracts iirc.

I can see it making CFG opting for buying or taking a minority share in a south-American club..
