    Kompamy is beelin but Citeh have, over the years spent **** loads themselves.
    Man Utd have bigger revenues too.
    We could cry on about City etc but the only way to have a truly level playing field is indeed to have a cap on salaries (EU rules will precent this), transfer spends, a 'Draft/pick' system like in the US or a rule requiring a minimum of 5-6 home grown players to be in the starting 11.
    Of course none of this will ever happen.

    Maybe it was well meant by Platini and UEFA, but, all it's done has helped the rich get richer.

    It's become more difficult than ever for clubs to break into the elite.
    Top clubs love it as they know they can't be shifted unless they screw up badly on the pitch.

    Unless it's scrapped, the Champions League will consist of the same teams year after year.
    It might not affect the Premier League as such, but it does if clubs want to get into Europe and have to abide by the rules.

    It plays right into the hands of people like Ashley, who can point out to compliance with FFP, so doesn't need to be ambitious, whereas clubs with real ambition are effectively f***** before they even start.

    Scrap it.....I say, and f*** off Platini, who' in the pockets of the top clubs anyway.

    Let's have a boycott of the Champions League.

    Have to agree with Heed on this one. A boycott is the only thing we can do to protest effectively. I suggest we do it for one season, ie next season. That will show everyone we mean business and can't and won't be messed around by Cashl... sorry Platini & Co.

    I'll reluctantly join the boycott of the CL.
    Our annual participation has become boring and tedious.
    On a serious note, Ashley has been boycotting the Europa since the last time we were in.
    The club has even gone on record as saying it has no real interest in the cups.

    Absolutely disgusting!!!!

    What about non sentient beings they have feelings as well, I think. Also why do you have to be so petty and exclude all Sunderland fans...both of them.

    Nah - a Sunderlandcott is only half a boycott. The Oxford English Dictionary defines it as "equivalent to a boycott but only occurring after 45 minutes"

    I work in the banner industry, I basically go round all forums ensuring that people make as bigger banners as possible. Its a tough business you know, not a lot of people want banners, so when they do I ensure they are as long as possible!

    Haha

    Heaven forbid you get rewarded for building a brand and punished for playing with data editor switched on.

    United can float 20% of the company and get rid of our debt but it's serviceable so what's the point? We have a record breaking shirt deal starting in August that dwarves Real Madrid's with the same company, plus a gigantic shirt sponsorship deal.

    We don't need FFP to keep those idiots in check, when they buy ****e like Navas, Bony, Jovetic... They should be looking elsewhere for their excuses.

    Clumsy ****ing crock, my heart bleeds.
