PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[lust overlord]

Surprised at the latter two.

Not really,......vote for it,this time because it'll help them not being left behind while they pay off debts accrued for stadiums etc.
Then a few years down the line,lo and behold they'll be agitating to change it again.
How many times have the goal posts been shifted in the last decade?

Let’s get ticket prices reduced then.

Makes me laugh the amount of fans that want these rules.
The only thing it will achieve is it will make the PL weaker and the owners richer.
Fans won’t see any benefit.

It's an agreement in principle not an agreement a long way to go before that happens,it will get thrashed out and changed and be meaningless when it comes into force

Do I understand this this correctly that spending will be capped by what the not so wealth clubs can afford ?

 

[GSW Blue]

All in an attempt to solve a problem that doesn’t exist. Unless the problem is that the best run club in the history of English football has regularly won trophies for the last 10 years or so.

5x whatever the bottom of the league bring in. So Sheff Utd look like 100m+ for this year so City could spend 500m.

And let's not forget, the current situation isn't normal.

In the history of English football, there has never been the kind of inequality we see today.

While City are one of the only clubs affected, we shouldn't be complaining (and I realise you're not), that we're ONLY allowed to spend 5 times as much as other clubs in the same division.

Doesnt sound like a sound business plan to me.

More than likely.

The fact that they are willing to push this idea gives cause for a little concern though.
Because it'll make a European super league a bit more likely. :(

The broader question here should be;

How can the Premier League realistically hope to pin these charges on City when they are essentially admitting they aren't fit for purpose & their members are going to change them? (or is this their get out?)
