As part of my final year at University, my dissertation which is looking at what effect Financial Fair Play Regulations from UEFA and other football governing bodies such as the Premier League and Football League will have on football clubs, football fans, and how clubs will come to terms with meeting these regulations, requires me to research and collect data around FFP and getting an opinion on what football fans think is vitally important. Therefore I have created a survey which I would appreciate if you could all take the time to complete. With the full introduction of Financial Fair Play (FFP) being introduced in the coming season 2013/2014, FFP is set to become a massive part of mainstream football across Europe. Many of you will of already have heard of âFinancial Fair Playâ initiative originally introduced by UEFA focusing on regulating clubs who are wanting to qualify for Europeâs top club competitions, the Champions League and Europa League and recently being implemented by the Premier League for the Englandâs top divisions and the Football League for the Championship, League 1 and League 2 aimed at stabilising football clubs, creating a level playing field and restricting the amount of money being spent within the game. âFinancial Fair Playâ has a range of objectives, including stop clubs paying excessive salaries and transfer fees, promote investment in youth development and playing infrastructure, preventing clubs form living beyond their means and thus preventing football clubs from financial collapse. I would really appreciate it if you could take 5 minutes of your time to complete the survey and give me your opinions on Financial Fair Play.

Just realised this posters account is under moderation meaniing this thread is too. Its the new poster posting links rule I think. I'll approve it as it might kick start a FFP debate (or not) Edit: won't let me
Surprised this thread is still here since its been posted on several boards and BRB is aware of it. He normal deletes them all immediately
I think the league has been in the state it's in because clubs began adjusting for FFP a season or two ago. We were kinda forced into it by the cowboys not having any money and I think Utd's bond issue and debt maybe helped them start preparing for it a little earlier than everybody else.
Sure I've had to put out a few surveys recently for my degree and I know just how irritating it is having to bother people for it. Good luck with it all.
