See Schad’s post, they will and **** all will happen
I can’t see anything happening to them apart from a fine, which they’ll pay, shrug their shoulders and carry on.
Not spending anything last summer will probably mean they can reset and spend massive again because of how stupid the FPP rules are. Plus having not spent and being so close to relegation gives their owner even more incentive to spend.
Only thing is the owner (well the rich one) is Russian so not sure how he is with all the freezes on his assets etc
Everton will probably have to make some moves in order to steer clear of whatever danger they're in, but the way you can structure these things for accounting purposes is so silly that I'd be surprised if they really had to have a fire sale.
Let's say that sell DCL for £35m (to West Ham? That feels right), and buy Broja for £22m or something. You might think that's a profit of £13m on next year's books, but nope! Broja's transfer fee would be amortized over the length of his contract, while the profit on the disposal of DCL's registration (which would be £35m, as DCL is currently worthless in accounting terms) can be booked immediately. So if they sign Broja to a four-year deal, that's actually more like an offset of £30m against their current books. Might actually be more...I'd have to get really deep into the weeds regarding the cashflow aspect to be sure, but I think that the portion of DCL's transfer fee that gets received in that year would effectively be double-counted, both as part of their operational profit/loss and as part of the profit on player sales offset.
Simon Jordan said on Talksport today that they are on the spending edge, could get fined, but will not have point deductions. Plus they can’t have any Usmanov bail outs ie naming rights on train8ng grounds etc, as he’s under embargo, do Moshiri will have to do on his own. was rumours that the6 will listen to offers for Pickford, Calvert Lewin etc, but I’m sure most are right, and 5th will spend another **** load this summer.
What.
Just reading KUMB, they seem to find the source believable, but they aren’t happy at the prospect of paying £60m for JWP….
£60m is a pretty cheap price to ensure our relegation next season tbh.
Just imagine, after all the excitement of the takeover and getting rid of Gao, the first thing the new lot do is go and sell our star player to West Ham. 
That would be so Saintsy.

This would be some first statement signing by the new owners. A 25 year old GK who conceded 50 goals in 35 Turkish league games.
Can't see us paying anywhere near what you'd want, every first team player in the premier, with more than a year left on their contract and no release clause, has a prohibitively expensive premium for all but City (I would've added Chelsea, but their days of spending are over imo). JWP is worth £40m tops, but I'd expect you to hold out for double, same as we've stuck £150m on Rice. they aren't worth those fees to anyone else.
So I make that out at 54 goals in 38 games- a definite improvement on the 67 this year - sign him up!
I mean it’s like you say, it’s what the player is worth to you.
JWP is our top scorer, captain and arguably most consistent performer. If Rice is worth £150m to West Ham, Ward-Prowse is worth £75m to us at least (and Rice isn’t double the player JWP is either, just trying to be realistic).
He's a random City fan who styles himself a Twitter journo, and has posted no source. Nothing about that 'rumour' makes the slightest bit of sense. I can see precisely zero other links online, beyond someone with literally zero followers calling themselves a reliable source of transfer news, who follows Mr. Pain above.

Just a rumour for a rumour page. Most are and will be utter bollocks but one or two will be true.
I hope "at least one" means 1 new player plus replacement for those that leave. This is our weakest position IMO:
Walcott: Not good enough
Djenepo: Not good enough
Tella: Okay for bench/squad player
Redmond: Ok for bench/squad player
Elyounoussi: Ok for bench/squad player
Armstrong: Good player but often injured
We seriously need to improve here. We need to buy 2 players good enough to start and sell Walcott, Djenepo and either Redmond or Elyounoussi. How realistic/achievable that is remains to be seen.
Why? Saints aiming to bring in one or more players for a position we need to strengthen.
Added to that Palmer would only likely be a loan signing. Not even ours for keepsies. So back to square one the summer after.
"At least one" means "one", in my book. And a 19 year old inexperienced lad is not what I was hoping for, if it is only one.
