PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Didsbury Dave]

The vote the other day was only on the principle of anchoring. It still has to be finalised and one key area is can profits on player sales be in addition to the turnover cap.

I certainly hope it is. The Academy would be really important then,

Yes but, don’t forget which club has been doing well from the Academy, it’ll be on the table that player profits won’t be included in the criteria, I’m pretty sure of that.

Then that defeats the object of selling established players like Gallagher and James in Chelsea’s situation

As I understand it, and someone will possibly have more knowledge on this, as an example a team like say Newcastle who’s turnover was about 250m it helps them as if the TV revenues of the bottom club is 100m and it’s x 5 that means potentially Newcastle have up to 250m whereby sale of players would be an advantage.

In our case our turnover is 700m plus but we’re restricted to 500m so any player profits are irrelevant.

Chelsea will need to sell to balance this years PSR rules, the changes won’t affect the end of season sales.

Surely player sales will reduce the wage bill. If rumours of City being after both Guimaraes and Paqueta then they’ll have to reduce that bill

It’s such a stupid rule, all it does is push the price up for average players, does nothing to stop clubs getting in silly debt and stops any competition in the championship.

That’s probably the bit they haven’t thought about is what the players and PFA will make of it as this will result in wages reducing if so. There will be a legal challenge from that aspect, it’s another shit idea from the Premier league with a lot of holes in it that will unravel like the current rules are when it’s worked in real world scenarios they haven’t accounted for.

Yes of course, it reduces the wage bill but generally each team has a squad of 25 senior players so if Newcastle sold those two they’d have to replace them or operate with a weakened numerical squad.

Wages taken into account?

Great if like 95% of teams you can plan a year ahead with no worries about trophy bonus payments but....well you all know the rest.

Imagine teams having to throw cup finals to adhere to PSR!
