"No complaint has been brought against Leicester by the Premier League for any breach of the PSRs for the period ending season 23/24."

Thoughts and prayers with Mr Poppadopolus, the Bristol City fan.

Now, now, he's hasn't mentioned our finances on OTIB in over 16 hours.

Can anyone tell me how Forest complied?  There’s something very wrong if we had to sell players on twice as much revenue.

Completely forgot about this. What a time to be alive that was.

They didn’t , they got a points deduction which didn’t matter.

I was on about this financial year but I assume the Johnson money was booked.

I'm guessing that the £12m they got from Newcastle for their third choice goalkeeper was a bit of Iroegbunam / Dobbin style jiggery-pokery.

We can moan about teams bending the spirit of the rules but we are just as guilty.

The rules are daft though and Premier League clubs won't vote changes through because of a perceived competitive advantage.

Any system that makes selling your academy products the right thing to do in almost any circumstance is crap and completely at odds with other rules that were put in place to try to encourage teams to develop their own talent.

Again it is evidence that it props up the "big" teams like Chelsea and Cite£ as they have huge academys where they just sell off players every year.

For every cock up (Like Cole Palmer) there are lots of kids that are just bargaining chips that never get heard of again

It is but how do you create a set of rules that is equitable, encourages "right" behaviours when the starting playing field is soooo skewed. it's nigh on impossible. add to that the political / out for themselves mentality of every PL club (incl. us) and you'll never get a set of rules that gets passed by the majority.
The only option way I can see that can happen is for it to be dictated to clubs (via a regulator or UEFA/FIFA) but I assume that would just end in legal quagmire and/or be the beginning of clubs breaking away to form a Super League.
