a lot of duck eggs there
 
I think we've seen that FFP can be negotiated via numerous loop holes and creative accounting practices. There are a lot of ifs and buts and i doubt very much that they're all water tight. I don't want to allow these clubs any room to maneuver or weasel out of sanctions. There needs to be a simple solution in my view.
there isn't a simple solution. That's why they felt they could do this.
 
I'll hold my hands up partly, Warnock does seem to have came out against the idea slightly in the written press, whilst still saying he doesn't know anything about it, but judging from the leading questions in the interview segment that the club has already released, I expect it was a question that was hard to sanely disagree with.

It should front and centre on the club's website, not hidden away in the Gazette.
 
Jordan Henderson has called for a meeting with all premier league captains. Wow.

Maybe I'm being presumptuous about Hendersons character but he comes across as a passionate football fan, a hard worker who has made the most of his ability, an honest pro, who wants to win in an honest manner.

He also isn't shy, and has clearly talked to all the other Liverpool players and probably plenty of England players to get the general mood. The players future is being evolved by people that take money out of the game, their opportunities limited by billionaires.

I would expect this to be followed by a joint statement from Jordan and all the premier league captains on behalf of all players about the need to bin this greedy anti-competitive idea.

Like I said yesterday Jordan started and I’d assume still supports sunlun so he knows about the pyramid and life in the real football world.

When people do lists like this they should include all the games. Forgetting Man Utd 1 Tottenham 6 for a start, Tottenham 1 Man Utd 3, Man City 0 Man Utd 2. Just makes it look like people are trying to present a false view when even including those games the majority of games have been dull.

Yes but I think under the rules of the new super league, no games can see a team win by more the one goal in the interest of making it a fair competition
 
interesting that the idea of work permits for big 6 foreign players could be withdrawn. If that threat is formalised this whole thing is dead in the water.

Wow, I'm surprised they'd go that far to be honest! What's the legal basis for that decision and doesn't it set a pretty terrifying precedent for those of who aren't millionaire footballers?

It's nothing new; it's a rule that has always been in place for none-EU players. With Brexit, it now applies to all "dirty foreigners"™

Possibly based on monopoly, mergers and competition legislation.
 
I get the reasons why people don’t want this to happen - I also don’t. However it’s a tad ironic that the money men who have spent the last 15 yrs ruining the game are getting upset that some bigger money men are going to ruin it further.

you can tell by the extreme reaction and threats thrown around and gvt involvement that for many this is less to do with football and all about the money!

I'm sure they can use protection of culture or whatever they like, I hate brexit, but we can make our own rules on who works in the country right now
