6 + 2 Point Deductions


It's been a great lot of signings and we've spent a fair bit, so, how are we going with PSR?

Nobody knows and anyone claiming they definitely do is fibbing.

As an educated guess, it feels like we've spent in the ball park roughly what we were hoping we'd be able to spend this summer. You'd have to assume next summer will be quieter. We've already committed 20m to Rohl, then there's the Grealish question which is way too early to answer but if it's in any way feasible, thats going to take up most of our headroom presumably.
 
I thought the sale of the womens team covered any signings for this year!

Also expect the increased revenue for the stadium along with Grealish shirt sales is going to massively help this year!

Let's also take into account Chermiti sale (8mil ish), saving on wages for all out of contract players (unless we were paying them for that month)... did Maupay sale go into this years figures?

Finally wasn't there 1-2 sales were we made a bit of money due to clauses after they left us?
 

Going to be scrapped or certainly reworked. Powers that be have realised its pretty obvious now it stiffles competition and favours a minority 9f clubs.

Because it was designed with that specific aim in mind. So in a way, it's a good system - it does exactly what they wanted.

I too hope its chucked in the bin but it has done exactly what they hoped.

Exactly. All these sponsors such as Bud, Pepsi etc must be good deals. Even little things like Everton way just of made the club a few million in profit.
 

Read in a Dibling signing article that last year we were due to pay out £95m on past transfers. This year that had dropped to £65m.
£30m on average equates to approx £150m in total transfer cost. We've spent about £120m.

Indeed,however, Its got to a point its openly damaging the EPL brand now. I suspect they will bring in exclusions that won't cost the balance sheet. Clubs like Everton Villa and Newcastle have serious people at the helm of respective clubs and can imagine there is allsorts going on in the background to liberalise anti competative regulations the sky six got EPL to bring in.
 
there needs to be a new financial rule that constrains this massive spend but allows others to invest and attempt to close the gap. Something like a restriction on spending to that of the income of the median club, so the club who finishes 10th has a gross income of £200m, that is what any club can then spend. Higher earners make profits for shareholders (like a normal company) and lesser earners can spend more without it being ridiculously more to try and catch up. It will need more safeguards but that is the core of it

it wont work of course as it will make it a fairer competition

Our net spend this window is £114m according to Sky earlier (but that includes the Rohl obligation fee, which I think would be included in next year's spend (?) so maybe about £96m in this window?)
