PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Coatigan said:
Just so I understand this. You are saying the PL is all fair and a lovely set of rules voted by all for all to help everyone equally, has been ruined by City coming in and systematically cheating and breaking the rules for over a decade, while depriving United Liverpool and Arsenal of 7 titles between them. And your proof is, they have only won the one, so all of the above must be true?

Nope, I never said a word of that.

I said the Premier League is a collective of 20 companies each looking out for their own interests and doing so incredibly successfully, and that anyone who thinks 1 club is being singled out by the other 19 (or a subdivision therein) and is using the proposal of rules that woud benefit City and do net harm to the "cartel" to convince themselves of that is a conspiracy wack job.

I know you didn't.

I was just doing what you were doing over the last dozen of pages i.e straw manning. It is annoying as fuck, isn't it?

No, you can't be good at stopping someone and also be always too late to stop them.

You can't have it both ways. If they're always too late then they're not very good at coming up with rules to stop us, just like @citizen_maine said.

Ah, there you go again, the irony.

If you read his post back, you might see why your attempt at shithousing is off.

The annoying thing for me is I actually agree or can agree with your underlying point to all this, which had long been lost now. But fuck me does your out for blood attitude of twisting everything till it is absurd distract from that, and just draw everything into basic online out-twatting everyone conflict.

The NBA salary cap is like the NFL's - it's based a percentage of the league's total revenue about 50%, I think the NFL's is ~60%.

The salary floor (minium spend) is 90% of the salary cap.





No one is suggesting using a salary cap in the Premier league, they're suggesting borrowing the idea of what happens when you break the salary cap and applying that to breaking the spending limit in the PL.

So just like now in the Premier League, Burnely get to spend 70% of Burnley's revenue, Villa get to spend 70% of Villa's revenue.

Fair enough. That's interesting. I will look some more if this actually happens.

So you think it will be based a percentage of a club's revenues? Isn't that how the "cartel" maintains its advantage? The investment to move into the elite must be prohibitive?

And why would you do all this? Why not just stick to UEFA rules and fine for anything over 70% of revenue based on defined financial sanctions? Seems unneccesarily complicated to me at first glance.
