Unfortunately FFP rules have created a closed shop designed to protect the big clubs.
How do wealthy owners inject cash without breaking the rules?
Derby and Sheffield Wednesday both sold their ground to their wealthy owner although that loop hole will now be closed.
The way the game distributes money creates a cartel. To break into the Cartel Man City were bought by Abu Dhabi's sovereign wealth fund and they spent the better part £1bn on the City Group. The simple truth there are virtually no other ownerships that could do that and even if they were they would have to be motivated by something other than normal commercial considerations because the investment has generated no returns in nearly a decade.
Many clubs went bust with benefactor owners trying to mimic the Man City model i.e bankroll the club beyond it's means to the point that it's sucess on the pitch generates revenue to be self sustaining. This model is still prelevent in the Championship because teams are just one short step away from the riches of the Premier League.
FFP was put in place to try to stop this. It failed clubs still go broke and owners still behave like gamblers desperately trying to get unstuck after a particualrly bad session at the casino.
The latest ruse of selling the ground to the ownership should not be allowed because it is selling a community assest to an entity that is not the football club. You can only do it once and when the money from the sale runs out and you are still in the Championship and renting the ground which gives them even less revenue to spend on players.
Yet none of this is FFP's fault. Or rather it is a reluctance to on the part of the authorities to tackle the real problem which is the horribly skewed way in which the game's income is distributed.
