FFP embargoes for Forest and Fulham

[nwgull]

£39 million over three seasons.

That starts next season; it's a straightforward £13m for 15/16.

There's some posters both for us and Bournemouth who look pretty stupid now in the light of this news.

Doubt they care.

They are in the premier league beating the likes of Chelsea and Man Utd.

Yep, a few albion fans defending plucky BMuff, saying they were within cap

Hope they go down even more now, as it'll eat into their parachute payments.

Another who can't see how Boro are doing what they are on small crowds

Christopher O'Grady

Comments in their local rag are laughable

Still think they are going down

I thought it was £2m plus owner contribution of £11m?

 

[bn1&bn3 Albion]

Will be interesting to see how much we have/will spend this season..

How did Blackburn escape? Thought they were buggered

 

[El Presidente]

They sold Gestede to Villa for £8 million

Hasn't Steve Gibson already used the club owned hotel model? https://www.rockliffehall.com/

I guess this allows a regular income into the club which, as it is classed as earned by the club, is not counted as part of the owner's allowable investment under FFP. I presumed this is why Tony Bloom has applied for planning permission for something similar.

 

[durrington gull]

Wait a minute. Forest under embargo? How will they buy Chris O'Grady off us?!

Just give COG away for nothing

 

[SussexHoop]

Given Tony Fernandes has gone from 'We've learned our lesson, we'll invest in youth and do things the right way' to 'Promotion means everything to me' I'm wondering if things aren't going too well on the FFP front.

Saw something on Twitter recently showing an apparent write-off of most of our debts. Don't know if it was genuine.

 

[clapham_gull]

Be interested to see Boros results,they've waved a nice few quid at players with pathetic crowds.

Not one of the others apparently. Didn't they have a few good draws in the cups against Premier League opposition and Televised ?

 

[Creaky]

All the clubs signed up and agreed to FFP and likewise 3 teams promoted, three points for a win, one for a draw etc.

How can they retrospectively challenge the rules they have previously agreed to?

Bournemouth weren't in the Championship in 2012 when the FFP rules were voted on.

 

[El Presidente]

Bournemouth weren't in the Championship in 2012 when the FFP rules were voted on.

They were members of the Football League, therefore the rules apply to them.

'Boro made reported losses of £18.4 million in 2012/13 and £20.4 million in 2013/14.

 

[atomised]

I would think as well that Bournemouth accepting their place in the championship when promoted meant acceptance of the rules of that division

 

[Norman Baker suck my lozenge]

Just demote any team relegated from PL who breach FFP & start them in Div 1 - simples!!!!

Sounds like a plan,if you gain promotion through cheating then on relegation from PL You go to league 2.
Unfortunately the FL are as much use as tits on a nun.
