We are 4 points off it with 18 games to go. We certainly aren’t anywhere near the top 6.
But the point stands - the rules in place do not permit club owners to sponser themselves hence why Usmanov lurks in the background.
Man City / PSG get away with it to an extent because they are state backed essentially being owned by their countries rulers - Newcastle will likely also go down this path.
So unless we get bought out by a Shiekh Ruler or another billionaire with a multi billionaire best mate happy to sponser we'll likely be looking at a loss of revenue if Moshiri was to go.
If we were to chase Moshiri and be taken over by a standard billionaire with no shady tactics of avoiding the rules - we'll be limited to spend so even if they put a good structure in place we'll have little to no hope long term of competing with the clubs with vastly bigger revenues who use FFP to their advantage - therefore we become just a stagnant mid table club as we are now.
Its a vicious cycle hence why our best bet is to back Moshiri whilst letting him know we want him to sort out the governance of the club.
