Re FFP:
As I understand it, the FFP rules are essentially about debt. A club is not allowed to have an average debt of over, I think it's £105 million over a 3 year period. If capital is not injected, this reduces to £15 million over 3 seasons. If player costs are below a £60 million nett threshold then there is no restriction on adding to them providing it doesn't go beyond £64 million nett. Most clubs have the players as assets, & the transfer fee & wages are added together & the amortised over the period of the contract. For example if we paid a transfer fee of £12 million for player A, & paid him a wage of £60k per week on a 4 year contract. The contract would be worth £24 million, amortised at £6 million per year. I we had say 15 such players, the asset value would be £90 million, providing our income streams generated at least £30 million, the we'd be ok. If our income stream fell below £30 million for a sustained period then we'd have to sell some of our assets to get back to the £60 million target. It's designed to stop clubs mortgaging their future by spending shed loads of money they haven't got,
That's why it's so unfair on the smaller clubs, clubs with huge wealth can just throw money at it .
