I wanted a more simpleton answer than the ESK would provide!

Regardless of FFP and the ways to circumnavigate around it... regardless if Usmanov sponsors our corner flag for £1bn, we should not be paying Schneiderlin, Bolasie, Walcott, Sandro, Martina etc wages.

So it it transfer fees or wages that are capped, or both?

Nothing is capped, it's really to stop teams spending more than they earn, a cap would actually have been more fare, the way it was implemented means that those with bigger incomes at the time (top teams) could keep outspending the rest thus remaining at the top.

If we buy any good players, UEFA will kick us out of the Champions League.

Have you got PPI?

FFP is a load of bollocks. Just in place to keep the status quo after City upset it. If we have money we should be able to spend it.

If you have money you are allowed to spend it.

We dont have money.

We dont have money.

That's not quite accurate, Usmanov, Bill Gates, Jeff Bozos and the Walton family could all be happy to invest and spend money on players but still break FFP rules.

Ah so all the people who say "we can't sign anyone because of ffp" are talking out of their backsides AGAIN because nobody actually knows what the rules are.

All those people have money.

Everton as a business does not.

Hence FFP rules.

Said this since day one. How can it be fair for the clubs already at the top earning and spending millions, by stopping the teams who want to invest on the pitch to earn those millions.

Persuading a manager of Ancelotti's ilk to join us and giving him a reported £11.5m a year are't the actions of a skint club.

Wilkins Micawber had this sussed in David Copperfield.

You can’t show an average loss vs turnover of over 105 million in a 3 year period

What has it been the past 2 years?

They are the actions of a madman.
