Isn’t that where a rolling 3 season aggregate falls over?
Say in 3 seasons you go over the threshold, you get punished.
In the 4th season you act drastically and get rid of virtually all your debt, but the amount of the 2 preceding seasons still take you over the threshold, so you get charged, even though you have done as much as you physically can.
In my eyes that is not right.
Rumours of an American style luxury tax being proposed.When the headlines become points deductions, rather than about the football on the pitch or the big shiny new signings, I cant imagine the regulations will stay as they are.
It’s good mitigation if you do, but it wouldn’t be a defence. The counter argument is that you should’t have let your debt escalate to the extent that it stood at over double the allowed amount.Isn’t that where a rolling 3 season aggregate falls over?

It’s almost better to terminate contracts by agreement and suffer the loss in one season than it would be to carry the enormous wage bill over several.It's entirely possible that we'll have points deductions for the next five seasons. I don't know how we get under allowable losses whilst carrying the costs we do in a shorter timespan.
The rules will change, that’s what will stop that happening.It's entirely possible that we'll have points deductions for the next five seasons. I don't know how we get under allowable losses whilst carrying the costs we do in a shorter timespan.
None of this has, not ever will, diminish the instinctive feeling of joy/relief I felt when Vardy smashed in the third against Norwich and the points were secure. Not the smile that was brought to my face when Mavididi curled in the equalizer at Chelsea.Does all of this absolute bollocks not make people just want to **** it all off?
It's exhausting and not what football fans should constantly be talking about.
The game we loved is dead, this is just ****ing a corpse.
Absolutely.Does all of this absolute bollocks not make people just want to **** it all off?
I completely agree.Absolutely.
I’m all for letting club owners spend what they want provided they put the money to cover the debt in an escrow account so that the club isn’t ****ed if they go.
Spend what you want because this fair play thing stacks the deck for the ‘big 6’.
We should probably have some standardsI completely agree.
Let the next Jack Walker live the dream. Even if it’s a murderous Saudi Prince or some ****er with dodgy political ties.
KP for now I believe.Who owns Seagrave? LCFC or KP?
No, seriously, **** it. Have a free market system.We should probably have some standards
I’ve been thinking about that Blackburn side, and its subsequent history a lot recently.I completely agree.

Yep, totally. I actually feel more and more disconnected from the club. If we were to fall into oblivion I'm not sure I'd even be too bothered.Does all of this absolute bollocks not make people just want to **** it all off?

That's starting to sound very familiar.I’ve been thinking about that Blackburn side, and its subsequent history a lot recently.
Won the Premier league, owner departs, slow decline, rank incompetence, irrelevance.
