It's quiet 10, no apologies! (continued)

No its not illegal and club owners would not win in court - there are restricitions on what people can spend in many many sports wage caps in several sports Rugby being the most obvious one there was even a salary cap a long long time ago in football - there are financial restriction in Formula 1

The facts are plain to see.

And UEFA went to the European courts to make sure they are water tight.

No they didn't.

They have certainly taken steps to make sure that any challenge through the Europe courts does not derail FFP

On 21 March, the Vice-President of the European Commission, Jaoquín Almunia, and UEFA President Michel Platini issued a Joint Statement and exchanged letters concerning UEFA’s Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations. In the Joint Statement, the Commissioner, who is responsible for enforcing European competition policy, endorsed the FFP regulations and noted the convergence between the “break even” objectives of the FFP regulations and the European Union’s State aid rules. This endorsement has been described by UEFA as a “milestone” and provides a large degree of legal certainty for the application of the FFP regulations under European law.

Anyone think we may have a case for Restriction of trade, Cartel rigging, illegal support of a cartel, raketeering, feeding the interests of potentially bankrupt organisations ala many top football clubs in europe the list goes onto Platini's victimisation of new commers affecting an illegal cartel and his anti european union agenda. FFS uefa have hardly enforced the law in the betting scandal of the cheats in Italy have they. Restriction of trade would be the avenue i would pursue, anti european and undemocratic, especially as it was voted in by the cartel in the first place.

Posted a question and oddly got a response from him, usually they get moderated away...

wages is the issue - and that is why most opinion including mine is that hes more likely to go to city than utd.

Re RvP to Utd, do you think utd can carry another player on 200+k per week ala rooney who is the highest paid player in the league well publicised i know! Especially after they smashed their wage structure to keep him? Surely RvP will want parity?

 

[argyle]

Some people have posted here the past few weeks believing that our squad as it is will run away with the premiership.

I don't think it will be that easy. Last season we didn't get out of the group stage of the CL and we won the league on goal difference.

I hope the policy of selling before spending doesn't come back to bite us - which besides Hazard is the approach we seem to be doing - .
