Tbh mate I've never been bothered by it. I've always been of the mindset that all you can do is improve yourself to beat your competition on the pitch. We managed that when the chavs got their windfall, both in the league and in europe. What I like about the PL now is that there are some quality managers in the league now compared to 20 yrs ago who are willing to adopt and promote an attacking, expansive and technical approach regardless. I'll include the likes of Brighton, Villa, Brentford, Bournemouth, more recently Palace. And as a result overcoming those challenges.
As I said to Kane I don't pretend to understand any of it, but when our new owner come in, during a fans forum that I attended with him, it appeared he was restricted in what he could do, because of the rules and that fanbase to do it, regardless his wealth, and the point I was getting at with Spurs, is we don't need a new stadium (yet), our priority is to get out of L2, but we are restrained by the rules (maybe) - yet if we want to build a big new fook off stadium that's ok (if I'm understanding all of this correctly), yet we can't grow until we get out of this league, but we are being held back and that just seems utterly ridiculous, even if I get the point of the rules. Id be more concerned if we were buidling a new stadium than what I would be getting better players in.
Fosse, you need to team up with The Esk. He is t a finance expert either but bangs on about it for Everton all the time.
Here we go Knees up Mother Brown, Apples n Pears, Pete Beale and Pat Butcher We salute you and hope you bring your East end Juju to the Etihad.
Missing the point fella ... financing concerns are just a smokescreen.... otherwise no rational sense in being able to exclude infrastructure costs from FFP and sustainability parameters... Our owners also own a team in the Belgium top flight ... and really don't need financial advice from any footballing body (hardly the paragons of financial virtue now are they? - as Mr Blatter and Mr Platini proved)
