Dr Gloom 23536 Posted January 16, 2024 Share Posted January 16, 2024 The other 14 should join forces against the “big 6” and vote down the P&S rules. And they’re not happy, let them go and create a breakaway European league if they’re threatened by rich owners who want to invest in their club. Let their fans travel around Europe every season and the rest of us can focus on domestic/uefa competitions. They can take sky with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which big 6 are you talking about? of the current top 6 City and Villa both voted against the introduction of FFP and presumeably still would even though it probably benefits us now. We were the last to join the superleague and the first to actually withdraw (chelsea said they would first, meanwhile we acted). Supposedly we didn't want to but joined out of FOMO. I suspect we'd be allies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ESL 6 were of course the 2 manchester clubs, liverpool, chelsea, arsenal and for some unknown reason spurs. The 6 clubs who voted against FFP were Fulham, West Brom, Manchester City, Aston Villa, Swansea and Southampton. In a darkly funny twist, everton voted for FFP. I'm unsure if forest were in the PL at the time. Everton were also amongst the 5 original clubs to breakaway from the league and form the premier league along with spurs, man u, liverpool and arsenal.

I doubt they’re going to loan him to us If this is real then we've either decided to act against FFP and have what we need to challenge the PL (or expect to be more than 10 points clear at the top of the table by the time we get pulled about it) or our CEO has been talking absolute shite about our financial situation following the latest set of accounts - or we finally found Mike Ashley's secret bank accounts that he used for Dhillon's chippy whenever he was up north.

So we send Ritchie, Dummett, Hayden and Fraser that way and we get the fee down to €74m. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
