Spending cap at last

[Cjplennon]

I’ve just read something via TNT sport that says around 5 times the TV revenue for lowest placed club.

Would be surprised if it was anything near £100m based on that.

Yes, more like 500 million (TV revenue x 5 is what i read).....and of course you can only spend what you have or someone will loan you. So it still favours the clubs that sell lots of shirts to third world fans. I expect there will still be a rule about it having to be sustainable to stop doping. 500mil is still alot of money.

….the two Manchester clubs voted against whilst Chelsea abstained.

Villa voted against it too

This won't change a single thing.

Is this just the new UEFA FFP think i.e. you are allowed spend 85% of your income.

What a load of old TOSH.

I’m in favour of a hard cap. But it will be interesting to see how this plays out. If, for example, Bournemouth have the lowest revenue of £100m next year, and the multiples takes it to £500m spend.

Then the following season Coventry come up and their revenue is, for example, £50m and the multiples takes it to £250m

Massive extremes, granted; but will teams be expected to reduce overall spend by £250m in one year?? Is that even possible

Is it definitely the same hard figure for every club - like proper American sport-type communism?

It works off the TV revenue I think mate, so I think theres a guaranteed minimum the clubs make.

Can see a situation where the big boys try to renegotiate the tv deal so the lowest club gets a bigger portion now to pump the cap.

I think it’s based on tv revenue alone.

Think lowest club gets around £100m currently. Can’t see it going down any time soon.
