Spoony Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 So we can’t buy jack shit because of FFP abut City can probably go ahead and splurge £50m on a back-up CM. Seems fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewiek2 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 We'll be fine. We been working with the EFL since the doc and Wyness ballesd up to get within the EFL FFP. And that would only kick in regards any implications of we go back down. Won't happen. And I'm sure the premier league will tell the EFL to do one. They aren't going to punish a side that's just come up to appease the league who they came out of. I mean Steve bleating Gibson And don't forget Sawiris was part of the panel who came up with the FFP rules, so knows a bit about how it all works. We'll be fine.

Thug Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 That Gibson bloke is a proper jealous cretin. instead of pointing the finger in every direction, how about pointing it at himself for employing an anti-football manager like Pulis? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFP still exists in the prem but from I remember it was certainly more lenient compared to the championship. its just that more money comes in from the league etc......... so the sustainability more likely and profitability more accessible. FFP is still there but doesn't raise its ugly head as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciggiesnbeer Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Promotion to the Premier League is our get out of jail free card with the awful FFP nonsense. As long as we dont misuse this windfall we will be a strong club for at least three years guaranteed. Hopefully by the end of that FFP will be abolished anyway. Fingers crossed.

Villa, who were promoted to the top flight after beating Derby County in Monday's Championship play-off final at Wembley, are among a number of clubs — Derby included — currently operating under a soft transfer embargo while the English Football League continue to assess their P and S submission. Officials at Villa Park have insisted they will be compliant with financial fair play regulations despite reports of heavy losses." Worth noting Dean Smith and Frank Lampard denied these soft embargo allegations in April of this year. I have no reason to disbelieve either of them and plenty of reasons to disbelieve the Daily Mail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I am sure the PL won't deduct us points. It would be a joke. No punishment was given to wolves so we shouldnt either. Also giving us a 9 point deduction before a ball is even kicked we might as well not turn up for the season as we will will go down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewiek2 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I think Purslew was involved in the premier league FFP rules as well. The premier league won't do a thing imo. If anything happens it would be an EFL ruling, so a fine at most. Noses got a points deduction because they blatantly tried to sign players when under an embargo, thus, in their eyes, deliberately breaching the rules.

Stephen_Evans Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 The “story” is that other clubs are worried there would be inadequate punishment IF we broke the rules, not that we actually did break the rules. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I think small time, Small Heath may be one of the clubs, if not the only club "that are worried there would be inadequate punishment". Firstly, no case has been proven. If it was a fine would be the likely punishment (ask Bournemouth). Some clubs down there may be bitter because we are back where we belong and are clutching at straws to try to bring us back down. They need to get over it and focus on their own balance sheets!

meregreen Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 The Premier League will be delighted that one of the truly big clubs is back in the fold. They will not risk losing us, only to end up with another Bournemouth, Brighton or Burnley, no offence intended to those clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
