FFP combined with PSR is the issue. If FFP rules were scrapped PSR rules make sense. If an owner can pump in any amount of money then the club remains profitable and sustainable. FFP rules are the ones that protect the richer clubs from further erosion of their privileged position as it protects...

David Ginola would surely get in there. Well past his peak when he joined but a great player at his peak.

I’m not defending Moshiri, just pointing out that fans are not necessarily best placed to make the decision as they would have signed off on his takeover. Also Moshiri wanting to sell to the highest bidder is just the nature of business, him doing a deal that wasn’t best for him is the only deal...

His latest tweet in response to Alan Myers saying that “the fans should have a say” on the new owners, is flawed. The “fans” would have happily given the green light to Moshiri at the time and look how that’s turned out.

I suppose it’s feasible they could trigger the release clause as Leeds did get relegated. I am guessing this would need to be in January though as if Leeds get promoted again at the end of the season I would imagine it overrides that release clause? No way we have £20 million to spend in January

Where have you got that from? If that was the case it wouldn’t even be a topic for discussion.

He will go back to Leeds, if they get promoted they keep him if not they sell to the highest bidder and he probably ends up at Villa.

I did! He was at his best when on loan as soon as he signed permanently his game dropped right off. My main point is that he was not great before the injury, so to say the injury finished him is not entirely true.

No he did not. He got a lot of puzzling and unwarranted praise by pundits for being ‘classy’ or a ‘silky footballer’ but he never really contributed anything to the team. It always drove me mad hearing people praise his footballing ability ignoring the fact he added nothing in any aspect of team...

The ‘law’ in this case are Premier League rules and regulations. There would not be a case of a law being broken, they would likely try a civil case for damages. I suspect the court would be likely to take the stance that it is the leagues responsibility to impose sanctions and not the courts.

Maybe it does in which case that could be what Dyche referred to when he suggested they may try and renegotiate with Spurs. I.e Delle is out of contract he can go some where else on a free and Spurs don’t get a bean or they settle for a lower fee for him to stay at Everton

Also could be playing the long game. Builds a good relationship, Delle wants to stay, does not play the required games to trigger fee to Spurs and then signs on a free when out of contract.

Because they signed up to be governed by the Premier League rules. Any punishment issued under these rules is the penalty for any breach. They cannot then be punished separately. The courts would merely point them back to the League to deal with the complaint.

I reckon the best we can hope for January is offloading Keane and Gomes. In all likelihood the outcome of the FFP investigation will mean we can’t invest due to fine or probable relegation from points deduction. Best case scenario is a transfer embargo for that window. Any way you cut it we...
