UEFA FFP investigation - CAS decision to be announced Monday, 13th July 9.30am BST

If FFP didn't exist maybe Bury would have gotten an owner that was actually willing to invest

A certain City legend is not going to be happy upon receiving this news.

Well, I could have been more specific, or concrete hehe, yaya is used for balls, as in having balls, not so much for bollocks.

He's saying FFP is needed because the owner might run out of money and then the team will be in trouble. Nothing to do with the fact that debt is what put Bury in trouble.

Debt - exactly
I wonder who pressured UEFA to drop debt from its FFP calculations pretty much from day 1
Isn’t it assured that an owner is prevented from putting £100m of his own cash into a business but is effectively rewarded for borrowing £100m

I thought there wasn't FFP at League 1/League 2 levels.

This is why it is stupid, the Glazers ultimately financed United through borrowed money although obviously United make a profit.

FFP would not protect them though had it backfired and gone tits up as it did at Leeds and many others.

If FFP was there to protect clubs then also why would you punish them with a £30m fine and chuck them out of their main earner, the CL?

Imagine if Bury had been hit with a £30m fine for going insolvent, hardly helps does it!

Poor Villa could fail the PL FFP criteria if they don’t offset those losses in the next couple of seasons.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer set of fans.

Delany says our statement of denial is wrong because we are not accused of breaking FFP but of misleading investigators but our statement talk of financial irregularities the irregularities are how we are alleged to have mislead investigators and also we are accused of breaking FFP once you take out the irregularities. Can anyone make sense of what he says ?

Avocado also means testicle. Just sayin.

In Spanish?

My bet is if you type “huevos” in to Google Translate, it won’t come out with “bollocks” ;-)

Whatever you type into google translate it comes out as bollocks

Shame, relegation should hit them even harder.
