pkonline Posted 6 March Share Posted 6 March With the extremes of revenue Premiership -> Championship, it's hard to imagine many teams not sticking the rules. The rules are silly and I do have some sympathy for the club - I am sure last season was something they did not anticipate because we had been a European challenging team and needed to spent to maintain that. Leicester isn't the first, or will be the last team, to be stung by financial rules. The bigger problem in football is the differences between the haves and have nots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have money and FFP doesn't include capital investment like ground expansion, training and academy spending. It's pretty much all about the player spend.

MancFox24 Posted 6 March Share Posted 6 March While this does seem to be a technicality, the important part for me from the ruling was where the EFL argued that we have not disputed that we will be in breach of the upper loss threshold for 23/24. I'm slightly confused about why we would be looking to make enemies of the EFL on a technicality while also trying to get them to be lenient on the substantive point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post UniFox21 Posted 6 March Popular Post Share Posted 6 March (edited) Dorsett explains this pretty well here. To summarise; EFL projections say we'll maybe fall outside regs, so wanted us to prove how we'll stay in. We said no, went to an independent panel and they agreed with us Edited 6 March by UniFox21 8 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pkonline Posted 6 March Share Posted 6 March It's silly that the rules in the EFL aren't harmonised with the Premier League. That needs changing ASAP. If 6 clubs move into and out of each every season, this needs clearing up!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but peddling the "we'll be fine" line militantly, when there's a real possibility that we very much WON'T be fine, is more damaging imo.

Fans peddling any line doesn't damage the club whatsoever - I think perhaps you and I disagree on this, we have far less influence on the goings on in the club than we might like to believe. On the other hand, if you're promoting the idea of fans being more vociferous in seeking positive change, then that's a different matter. Fine lines, maybe it's a matter of semantics. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
