Finally some sense.  Although nothing suggesting it will replace PSR, but its a step towards same limit for all clubs.

 

 

This could get proper weird. Loans galore for bigger championship clubs. And won’t this be a moving target every year anyway?

Happy to also confirm this that they've even made some hirings over the past week. Friend of mine has got a job as a receptionist in the past few weeks.

Time for the other 14 to call the bluff of the big six, vote it in or some other system that will level the playing field and when the greedy six threaten to leave say fine “**** off”, after all they've never been concerned about putting the rest of the league at a disadvantage with their greed.

Whatever is voted through has to fit with uefa’s rules for those who want to play European football 

 

Tbh, it’s a mess whatever way you try and deal with it

The hearing for Man City's 115 charges could be held in the 'near future' (whatever that means):

Great to hear, always happy to be wrong over people losing work.

"Hearing" is interesting. They surely can't cover all 115 rule breaks in one "hearing" can they?

Is that really going to work?

The commercial difference between say Leeds and Luton could be huge. Spending caps could differ a fair bit from season to season.

Yeah, would be completely unmanageable or to reliably forecast.

[Corky]

Shows how difficult it is to get controls in that retain some level of competitive closeness. We have made serious errors recently but we are also paying the price for the timing of it, six/ seven years ago this gets brushed off I reckon.

Just a legal term. 

 

Hearings can last days or months. Basically when the case will be heard. 

 

They could cover all 115 charges as a collective, in the sense that they've breached a term or rule by another party.

Even if we go up and straight back down, the finance from the year in the Prem will more than help sort the books

It doesn’t mean the team at the bottom of the league though 

it’s the team with the lowest income 

clubs will have to estimate 

the assumption this season would be that Luton would have the lowest numbers 

It wouldn’t be an exact science for sure 

 

based on where teams are by January, you might decide that you have more wriggle room to spend a bit more in that window or to increase a players current contract. 

[Spudulike]

So where does this now leave us? EFL can't touch us but PL can chuck the kitchen sink?

What we reckon now then, -6?

With the same irresponsible lot overseeing it.

[Noahfence]

Obviously I’d prefer we didn’t have one but I will enjoy watching us as underdogs again. 

[urban.spaceman]

Gav's still up.

 

 

 

[Royston.]

I'd be happy with -6. We're gonna suffer next season so what's 2 more losses.....

It's going to be interesting. They'll try the hardest to throw the book at us but we now have 2 independent judgements saying they tried to break their own rules to punish us, AND in the public realm, in Everton's second judgement, publicly documented that they were behaving irrationally and with hostility. I say we challenge every single letter in every single legal document between the two.

[Walshy5]

They'll look for all the excuses to throw the book at us and punish us as much as is legally possible because let's face it, everyone hates us! I reckon -10 at the very least!
