Financial input from owners is restricted to a maximum per season - also ref the rolling three year loss limit (we are now at 83 allowed ) That £105m is caveated by the fact that £90m must be covered by "secure funding" from a club's owners. Secure funding is a fancy way of saying "buying up more shares", rather than an owner simply lending their club money. That means a club can only lose £15m of its "own" money every three years. In other words - any loss above £15m but below £105m has to be guaranteed by club owners. If it isn't, or you go above that £105m limit, you are in breach of the rules.

That wouldn’t help out psr situation unless they were going to pay a fortune for either player

Impossible decision to make given that the on field call was offside I’m ok with it being stuck with probably needed making faster though in general, if a goal goes ‘through’ a player in an offside position it usually gets chalked off. Whether the keeper is going to save it or not doesn’t usually matter in law

Clearly issues with maresca go back some time and we had covered our bases by sounding out potential replacements

Associated club deals are now subject to strict uefa checks

I assume we’ll also be struggling for 24/25 on the three year rolling basis (has to be below around £85m ) perhaps we have decided to go all in on the efl breach 23/24 because if we manage to stay up then the EFL sanction will be financial - they could actually opt to place a deferred points deduction in conjunction with a lower fine if we’re struggling. kicking the can down the road may be seen as being a better policy as the rules might change.

Better second 10 for sure

This will knock back our average run rate

Meanwhile, back in the Joe Rodon transfer thread …….

how long can you hang on

was close not quite as obvious though

are you new here ?

Spaniards have managed to waste around 2 mins in the last five minutes that won’t be added on

Have we ever seen a player announce his transfer before the club ?

Very confused by this thread similarities are that there were eleven players on the pitch for England and enzo also had eleven players if you’re making the point that Southgate didn’t change things enough when they weren’t working then I’m not sure that even works cos he did - just got it wrong again pickford can’t play enzo ball - not good enough with his feet and panics when under any kind of pressure. If the keeper can’t do it then enzo ball doesn’t exist

glass half full We’re not going to win this (or any tournament ) with this coach at least performances like this mean even if we struggle through to the semis, Gareth is done

Is Jude carrying a knock?

Never coming home with this coach

Yeah - just the 999,999

He rocked up at forest with a group of players stuck in the relegation zone playing hughton ball he didn’t have any time to play any way other than being pragmatic and getting the most out of what he had in the summer, the club recruited way too many players - I can’t really imagine the difficulty coaching and managing that squad. In that scenario again he is unlikely to be able to do what he wanted I’d be looking at last season - he had a summer with the squad but did they play any differently in that august to December period ? did they seem to have any particular playing identity?

Of course - i was just thinking in respect of here as a forum. whilst i could conceive of people supporting hamas attacking israel as a 'freedom fighting entity', i couldn't in respect of hezbollah.

Marseille? not sure he is gonna fit de zerbi on a technical level. I doubt they’ll want him as an 8.

Why would anyone have any sympathy for Hezbollah ? (Unless you believe Israel has no right to exist and it’s ok to just attack without any care for what gets hit ).

Apparently it wasn’t her jet

The current situation with 60k residents evacuated from n Israel (and likely as many from s Lebanon) is unsustainable though. We know that netenyahu would probably want to continue the aggro for political reasons or at the very least get a capitulation from Hezbollah (which I can’t see happening either). my point is that it’s tough to see how this resolves without escalating further.
