I'd wager FFP is restructured in PL this summer, to give more wiggle room. As a product the PL can't have 6 or 7 teams unable to spend due to FFP or deducted points. 1
FOXSE Posted 6 March 2024 Posted 6 March 2024 I can see a scenario where all premier league clubs are deducted 15 points at the start of each season, except the big six..... 😄 3

There will be a DLA in place like most businesses, as much as he’s not very good at his job to just say he’s responsible is daft and ignorant. 1

I know for a fact SW has nothing to do with the football anymore.

Cheers Tommy G. They're thick as thieves those two so yes probably Top, but Rudkin has his fingerprints all over it. But yes I'm the WUM.
Tielemans63 Posted 6 March 2024 Posted 6 March 2024 Whoever is responsible, Vichai would be turning in his grave if he could see how the club has been run since his death. 2

Be aligned to the UEFA FFP rule It's a high end product which is going to be devalued by half the clubs failing FFP. You can't call it the best league in the world if half the clubs can't sign players. 5

MadsEmil Posted 6 March 2024 Posted 6 March 2024 Rudkin needs to be sacked pronto How someone in charge can bring the club to the brink of existence and not see consequences is beyond me. 1

Villa are seemingly trying to speed run what we have done as well Latest set of accounts had their wages at £194m which is above what even we managed, and I am not sure that will even include some of their big buys last summer who will be on massive money 1
Corky Posted 6 March 2024 Posted 6 March 2024 According to a finance expert on TalkSport a week or so ago, Chelsea need to sell £100 million of pure profit on players before the end of June to comply. 3
fazzyfox Posted 6 March 2024 Posted 6 March 2024 Regarding our general finances I was thinking about the Fofana situation, apparently there could eventually be 5 Million in add ons due, some based on appearances some on achievements. Whilst we’ve had some fun with the “grass isn’t greener” progress of his career we could have done with him staying fit and Chelsea not being so s**t! If it’s as touch and go as it sounds for us every Million helps
ARM1968 Posted 6 March 2024 Posted 6 March 2024 Fuch it, just deduct every premier League club and whoever gets promoted with us 15pts from the off, apart from us. Let’s see how quickly we could blow that lead. I reckon 8 matches in.

The silence of Top is quite concerning, to be honest. Might be just me, but found it quite strange that he proposed at the King Power Stadium the other week.

He'd probably be turning in his grave at what a corrupt wankfest football has become. No place now for people like Vichai to have a dream of building a football team, else the corrupt authorities will slap you down for daring to believe.
irishfoxkev Posted 6 March 2024 Posted 6 March 2024 Getting bleary eyed reading this and similar thread on EFL announcement and a couple of things puzzle me that I haven’t seen discussed . As I understand it this issue has come about as a result of relegation last season and moving from one set of financial rules to another. I accept if we had stayed in Premier League we would probably be in trouble with them anyway However we are one of 3 teams that were relegated so what’s the situation with Leeds and Southampton? Too tired to go looking at their financials for the same period but surely both also have Premier League expenses somewhat trimmed but a massive drop in revenue due to TV money etc ...
hejammy Posted 7 March 2024 Posted 7 March 2024 Also if we do need to sell "assets" to comply, other clubs will be aware we are desperate and the likes of KDH/Ricky P and Ndidi could go for very little money comparatively.
