Sorry, I confused it for pounds rather than euros



Wrong again

I am sure the football authorities will be taking it very seriously when they get legal cases pending from other clubs who start complaining that clubs like Chelsea and Man City are abusing the rules.



good thing gazprom has literally no affiliation with abramovich at all

Sandy, FFP will never really take effect. How will it take effect when PSG have been spending about 200million the past year, they aint gunna do nothing to psg.
PSG = French
Platini = French

No chance of these rules coming into serious effect now

lets not discuss being wrong with someone who thinks the basis of ffp is that you can't spend any money at all

FFP = We'd be done, Barca would be done, Madrid would be done, City would be done, Man U would be done, PSG would be done. They aint gunna throw all of these out of the CL, would cause uproar

It does make you wonder if these clowns who seem so certain that ffp will be our destroyer have any basic concept of the rules (yes you're right silly question of course they haven't )

As I said they may try to turn a blind eye in the short term, but I am sure many, many chairman of less wealthy clubs will be starting to take legal action against what they consider to be an unfair playing field. The football authorities will in turn have no choice but to start clamping down on clubs that abuse the rules, otherwise they will be taken to the cleaners in court cases.

Who cares LITF, let them continue with the assumpton we're gunna be done and dusted. While they keep thinking hoping and praying we'll keep winning trophies

And I'm sure clubs in france will start taking legal action about being thrown out when they have an 80% super tax which means their wage bills will be so high it would be impossible to become self sufficient

With FFP the rich get richer and the poorer get poorer. There is little chance for little clubs to become big clubs with FFP. City were a relegation/ bottom half table side before they got bought, if FFP was there they wouldn't be where they are now.

It will never take real effect

Exactly LITF
And when people talk about it, they speak as though they know our club's finances better than the board itself

What like Chelsea are spending more than they bring in, but they won`t get done because the authorities dare not touch them. Simple really.

They wont touch us because, much to your distress, we're in no danger of falling foul to the rules especially considering a ban from Europe is the last step of action and is in no way permanent

You realise that even if ffp is implemented, we'll still be able to outspend Spurs and majority of other clubs

Spurs would be s'crewed if FFP came into real effect

Of course he doesn't the clown has delusions that spending will be eradicated and wheeler dealer clubs like spurs will rise to the top

What he also probably doesn't know is that the total money we earned from this years champions league outing pays off our transfers this summer alone with change spare

Why not. You are spending more than your club generates through legitimate football business, some dodgy deal with a russian gas/oil company does not consistite money generated by Chelsea FC however much you care to dress it up.

Oscar.....................................Explain please? How would Barca, United & Real be done?

These clubs are run entirely differently to Chelsea, City & PSG.

United's income stream from matches far exceeds Chelsea's, plus their merchandising world wide is phenomenally successful bringing in tens of millions each year. Their debt is front loaded and would not impact on FFP at all.

Barcelona are owned by the supporters & again their income stream from attendances, television contracts & merchandising is triple that of Chelsea's.

Real are similar in that they are funded by the City of Madrid, their attendances again are way above yours, as is their television income & merchandising. As it presently stands NONE of these 3 clubs would fall foul of FFP.

Why not? Because their income streams are in proportion to their expenditure, this is where Chelsea, City & PSG fall short of satisfying FFP.

It's all jealousy LITF. Spurs fans are just rude tbh, they should be more appreciative of us tbh because of us they got a mention after the CL final on the news.

But no we're not because the money from our champions league covers what we've spent this summer alone so how can we be in danger of falling foul of the rules when the revenue we generate doesn't even need to be involved
