Burnley Case

Our Super Silk should be draughting the lawsuit up for Chelsea as we speak.

Put the City ones on the back burner too.

As I said the floodgates are well and truly open. Every time they have broke the rules it has cost every other club money.

Na
We'll just appeal it , get the cost down.
Say thank you and go quietly in the night.
Sadly yes can see the appeal and will be some sort of fine. Honestly hope can do a better job as is plenty of reasons to appeal on league also taking time for the first case to be done, already punished pounts deduction lost money on league position. Would say this opens the door for other cases but we kno it wont likes of chelsea city just get away with it
 
Recall during takeover there was talk to insurance/assurance over pending legal issues.

Every chance Moshiri has to pay but I figure itll still hit our ability to spend.
It really shouldn’t have a huge impact on spending. It won’t count as a squad cost for the new rules so will have no impact from a financial fair play perspective.

MAYBE it would lessen what TFG choose to spend but like you say this hasn’t come from nowhere and will have been factored into their takeover negotiations.
 
The 40mil is the headline, but I think what's way more important, more broadly, is the precedent this now sets for the rest of the league. 40mil (likely appealed lower) likely paid off by our former billionaire really isn't the story here.
Let’s be real this opens such a can of worms that the PL will have to change the rules to prevent absolute chaos- meaning of course good old Everton will be the only ones who ever fall foul.
 
I really don't think people realise what this means. It allows every club to file lawsuits against us. Any team that we beat in that period can claim loss of prize money etc. Clubs could argue loss of sponsorship as a result of this. They could argue that they were forced to sell players they didn't want to to comply with PSR due to loss of revenue caused by us.

And we will lose a lot of them because of this judgement. And also, it won't matter how frivolous some of them are, they will still need to be defended. With huge pots of cash set aside - where will that money come from I wonder. This will rumble on for the best part of the next decade.

This really is a huge disaster. And we are already circling the drain.
