Why do you think FFPR came in?
To stop equity investment and to stop clubs moving into negative equity.
That's the result. The reason it came in was that the etablished elite were worried that their cartel of success would be damaged by "new money" and a desire to preserve their current lofty status and money making ability forever. That's why it isn't about debt. So if we don't watch our spending we can be in a difficult situation with UEFA hence a reduction in the transfer activity.
If there was no FFP we would have got Hazard for £45 million probably.
That's what I was trying to get over to CityRaider...who I think shouldn't be too amazed.
