As in Utds case it's well within their means, just not good for their aspirations in winning Trophies. Spuds on the other hand, Taking the ground out of the equation, Their not too indebted, Which puts them in a strong position going forward. Which still leaves my original question of. How is Stadium debt handled in relation to FFP. Is it set aside as a company non football debt. Or is it Amortized of 10 or more years and part of the FFP Calculations. I always thought stadium or academy (infrastructure) spend was outside of FFP calculations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on how the parent company is structured. Take Ashley for instance buying Derby. He owns plenty of companies and he can use that money to save Derby, Or he can use them as collateral against loans generated to save Derby. Then he can attach that debt to Derby or spread it across all his companies. If he uses personal cash he can give it as a loan into the accounts or write it off. Which is what Vichai done for us God bless him in his early days here. It really comes down to ability to pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll sign Messi for our academy and promote him to the senior squad from time to time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have spent £100m (or at least taken out a loan/s for that value without contravening FFP). We are doing the same with the stadium without fear of any impact regarding FFP. The amortization of stadium debts it seems, so far as capital investments are concerned, seems to be neither here nor there, in relation to FFP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, What some are even doing is just paying the Interest and little or none of the Capital. Allowing inflation to take care of the Capital. Govs have been doing this for a longtime. FFP clearly favours the bigger clubs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea could well be in the market for CBs but whether Cags ticks their boxes, who knows. I suspect we'll hear more now Cags is done with his international duties.

Babylon Posted 19 June 2022 Share Posted 19 June 2022 16 minutes ago, funkyrobot said: Very specific revenue rules coming in Premier league has different rules, so it only applies to teams in European competitions. And if you get Europe, your revenue is going to increase substantially anyway. Also, you can make upto £70m in losses over three years. Up from £30m… how exactly that works with 70% rule I’m not sure. If you are making losses then surely you are spending more than that 70%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they get 50-60 mill from PSG for Skriniar, they should be able to afford 35m for Bremer, unless another club like Chelsea come in for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
