PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[I'm Blue]

The excuses from Everton and Forest are laughable.

Everton - “the war in Ukraine has cost us £200m in naming rights on our new stadium”
Would that be the new stadium that’s not even been built yet?
“If we had sold a player we would not have failed P&S rules”
But you didn’t sell a player.

Forest - “If we’d sold a player sooner we wouldn’t have failed P&S rules”
Again, you didn’t sell a player.

Accountability you cunts.

That’s just football fans, shoe on the other foot I would want them closed down, disbanded forever and their ground bulldozed to make way for a massive illegal economic migrant processing Centre

I don’t know, back in the days we were taken over I think I would have got behind any club that was challenging United.

Imo it’s not.

You don’t throw 115 charges at a club and essentially say “you were pieing our rules for 12 years”. That basically proves you don’t have a fucking clue what you’re doing.

You don’t then go and charge another club for pieing your rules.

You definitely don’t then go and charge that same club again.

Then to top it all off you go go and charge another?

The more they dig a hole the more it looks like they do need an independent regulator.

These charges will speed up the independent regulator imo. I think the bill is due in parliament within the next fortnight.

So Everton and Forest are charged and the BBC report from our stadium? Why not report from Owe Trafford, they got fined for breaching FFP a few months ago.

I knew it

Another absolutely clueless report from Dan Roan so called leading bbc football pundit on the news just now. No explanation of the charges City face, no explanation of the difference between City's charges and the situation with Everton and Forrest. And no explanation of why FFP is loathed by a large % of football fans and the restrictions it wrongly places on clubs and the unfair benefit it gives to others. What on earth has this fella ever done to get into the position that he is. An utterly useless reporter.

DRIAFC.

i can see forest point allegedly sell for 35 million early or hang on and get 47 million from spurs which ment failing PSR

but why should clubs have to sell their own youth player to stay within rules wasnt long back bring through talant was way forward
city to blame i guess

 

[BerkshireBlue]

Forest have only been in the pl for 5 minutes ! How have they had time to break ffp

this is an interesting line of argument, I reckon great lawyers could argue the time period only starts when they are promoted to the premier league and probably win it as well

I don't know, I think Forest have a point on this.

They rejected £30m for Johnson from Brentford that would have seen them pass the PSR as they knew they would sell him for more.
A month later they sell him to Spurs for £47.5m but outside of the PSR window.

They're essentially charged for selling their star player for more.

The rules also forced them into selling a home grown player as its pure profit, another flaw. Plus they only get £60m in losses as a newly promoted team but everyone else gets £105m losses over 3 seasons.

All comes back to what these rules are really for and it's quite obvious that it's to stifle the development of ambitious clubs.
