Imagine he instead bought the rs and turned the pit into an AsdaImagine how much the RS would lose their paranoid little minds if Usmanov bought in and financed us to a league win?

If Usmanov does ever get involved with Everton, I hope it's significantly to do with the stadium. Due to the FFP scam he wouldn't be able to come in and do an Abramovic anyway.
Because I have a shaved head and I am as jealous as ...........
No I agree and FFP has only made it harder to reach the teams with an already established finance stream...but I was just picturing the fume. It would be glorious!!
I'm no expert mate but I think the punishment ranges from being banned from European comps to points deductions to fines...I think. Either way beat not to get the wrath of UEFA ... we'd end up with Collina reffing all our games !!Doesn’t FFP just affect Europe? (I don’t know enough about it to be honest). I’d take just winning the league every year
Usmanov is sailing into the new cruise terminal and he’s bringing Messi with him.I for 1 welcome our Russian overlord.
Man City style, I like it!He can sponsor the other sleeve for 3bn
I get that FFP definitely limits things but, regardless of the ethics of it.......
The plus of a really rich owner is he can have a chat with his friend, agree to have his company sponsor their stadium for 200 million, while his billionaire friend has his company sponsor his stadium for 200 million. That way both have a net spend of 0, and can instead spend that 200 million on transfers etc. The other way it to do something like spend 100 million in marketing and sales that will only produce 95 million in increased commercial revenue. Practically, as a business, thats very poor return. But for the team, they can then spend it all per FFP rules.
The way to get around FFP is sponsorships, commercial revenues etc, and there are ways for billionaires to indirectly inject cash through that.
