Football club finances / FFP

[SM]

A set of totally normal figures here for commercial growth between 2009 and 2019.

Almost like it's a club going from battling relegation to consistently playing in the CL and winning titles?

As much as people want to find us guilty, we haven't been found guilty.

And as much as people want to believe we're trying to bring down any sort of financial regulation, there is no evidence to suggest that is the case.

What is pretty clear is how much power a leaked (by the league or a club) story has over peoples perceptions.

If the story was what I believe it is, and that's we believe a rule is illegal according to UK law and we're seeking a judgement whether or not that is the case there wouldn't be 1% of the drama and faux outrage.

It really isn't as significant a case as is being made out.

Interesting that our kit deal went from £2.5m a season in 2009 (Umbro) to £65m a season (Puma) in 2019 - 2500%

The marketability of the club certainly grew a bit in 10 years.

If it was all just about a law then they wouldn't have used the language they did.

Instead the absolute dickheads went down the path of its veiled racism, we're the victims of discrimination.

Utter dribble from utter campaigners.

Farks sake. Arent these guys used to the oppressive conditions for home games?

You don't know the language that's been used.

You've chosen to believe a newspaper story that's pretty obviously been leaked by the league or another club (a breach of the rules that no-one seems to bothered about) and pretty obviously designed to paint us in a bad light.

The rule that was breached isn't compliant with UK law so it's all good.

Nobody has to paint you in any kind of light.

It's not a secret you're owned by vile dodgy pricks.

Wolves suffer discrimination here from the tyranny of the majority.

Quick, get the lawyers, VAR is against the law!

Don't know how you manage it but that gag seems even more intelligent and funny the 10th time you made it than the first.

 

[moomba]

Ha ha, ****ing hell. Someone should fill this prick in on which club is the only one in the league that's pushing for an independent regulator.

How does Chelsea get away with buying £50m to £100m+ players every year? They’re worse than the Saudi's.

They are imploding. Leave them to it.

City this last 48 hours a strong endorsement of my decision to de-couple my life from football, and why I have barely even missed this board, or its day-to-day football news and updates.
The game if rife with corruption, greed, boring and repetitive trophy winners. The elite doing everything possible to keep everyone else at arm's length. By honourable means, or more often otherwise.

Now we have the biggest disgrace in world football having the gall to sue another football entity. So lacking in self-awareness.

It's real games gone, what's the point stuff when one team continually cheats and when investigated does all their fighting in the courts and acts all hard done by for their dead shit fans who defend them despite it being so obvious what a pack of campaigners they are. The passing themselves off as victims piece is both the most cynical and amusing part.
