Financial prudency and balancing the books is all very well, but whats that got to do with appointing a shit manager?
What a load of bollocks. If anybody thinks this is going to make a blind bit of difference to the likes of Man U, City, Arsenal, Barcelona et al, they're living in cloud cuckoo land. As the poster above says, this is just the same as Doug waiting for the bubble to burst. We're a mid table team now battling it out with the likes of Sunderland and Stoke, get used to it.
I may be being a bit thick here (wouldn't be the first time) but won't the new rules further strengthen the current divide between the 'big' clubs and the rest? Yes, it may stop rich Arabs or Russians throwing silly money at players but as they have higher turnover they can pay more for players, whereas the lesser/normal clubs will by definition get poorer
