And now have 'Profitability and Sustainability' regulations rammed down our throats.
I predict that Profit & Sustainability will only last 5 years max. It will be replaced by another plan.
Call it what you like until players wages are brought under control it can't change.
£40,000 a month for a bang average Championship player is what is f**king our game.
£40K a month offends far less than £40k a week for an average prem ****.[emoji35]Call it what you like until players wages are brought under control it can't change.

Burnley would have voted to keep the rules as they were if they had not been promoted - shame Brighton changed their mind.
If Brighton had stood firm, it would have screwed about 12/13 clubs, but most - like Boro, Bournemouth and Forest - have now been allowed to wriggle off the hook![]()
Yes and we voted for it, I bet those other 6 clubs that didn't were surprised by us, us the ones who went constantly on the media saying the league must not weaken over the punishments.

This. My preference is to now just let clubs get on with it. Let them get hideously in debt and let the likes of Portsmouth and Leeds etc etc actually die off. Only when a few name clubs have died will people step back and take stock of the lunacy which is English football. Getting more and more in debt, laying people off, paying minimum wages to many of those you have to employ just to shovel eye-watering amounts of money into very average, if not crap, footballers pockets. Hoskins drove a Porsche, CMS has some fancy car which was the envy of others...how can failure be so well rewarded? I'm losing my interest in this.
In theory though all the clubs that breached FFP last season will be subject to a transfer embargo in January though.
I have read somewhere, since the vote ( I wished I had bookmarked it) the Forest Chairman says, they can still deal in the transfer market as long as the squad does not rise above a certain number. And if it does they can transfer a player out and bring another in, but the player coming in has to be on 75% of the wage of the leaving player?
Correct, the FL definition of transfer embargo is as loose as the contents of my underpants after a prawn vindaloo.
