I see an awful LOT of opposition fans, football fans in general, harping on about how the PL is fixed, full of cheats, corrupt etc...
The PL really are shooting themselves in the foot.
Or even better- teams are failing and being put at risk for point deductions while Man United breach and suffer only a $250K fine.Feels like ffp is unravelling but only because the clubs that voted for it are now being screwed by it.
The more clubs that fail ffp while the red tops avoid it the more the anger towards ffp and red tops will grow

I’m hopeful that clubs are waking up to understand their interests have never been aligned with the redtops.

Especially those that pushed for this in the first place..a nice bit of karma ..Yes. We pleaded with them. We warned them. We knew FFP was bad for football. We did not want it. They didn't listen. The club's voted it in and their fans offered no resistance. Now it benefits us. Now they are crying. Well I say "fuck em". You're not getting any sympathy from me. I hope FFP screws every club that voted for it.
Pretty impossible with the introduction of the regulator and the new rulesThey're not included. The top clubs will either join a superleague or start a new version of the premier league.
i do think the penny is starting to drop with some opposition fans. I met Geordies before and after the game on Saturday in the pub and on the train and they were all great. They have seen the FFP farce in all its true colours. They all appeared to have a deep hatred of Arsenal (because of diving and time-wasting); United (because they lead the cartel); and Liverpool (because the scouse fanbase causes trouble everytime they play Newcastle apparently).Exactly. The reputational damage is more than enough. If certain charges are deemed time-barred & we're found guilty of non-compliance, it's job done.
Our reputation will have been besmirched, with our opposition claiming we got away with the bulk of the breaches on statute of limitations technicalities.
Bastards!
It also entirely misunderstands what the super league proposal was. There ain't no English club walking away from the PL money to take a punt on a new start-up.Pretty impossible with the introduction of the regulator and the new rules
