Quote from: Madferret62 on May 28, 2018, 10:55:23 AMPNE are warming up a new song “Twenty grand twenty grand Jackie Grealish...”Funny how the FFP thing has come home to roost. It should have been implemented from the start and the “parachute” money is quite simply a joke that unfairly rewards failure. Did no one see this coming no one?The parachute payments are so a relegated team doesnt have to sell it's entire squad and replace them with kids.

Tshbola, Gil, Gollini, McCormack, Hogan, Lansbury, Gardner, De Laet, Richards, Elphick. There's got to be a few quid in that lot, even if we are subsiding wages elsewhere as they have contributed almost nothing to the team this season. We have to move them on. If we keep Kodjia, Jedinak, Chester, Grealish then it's a great start for next season.

Not too dis similar

This is the best summary I found. Can't vouch for its veracity but I found it both convincing and obviously alarming. In short, says we need to generate c £40m next season.https://heartoftheholte1874.wordpress.com/2018/02/20/villa-play-ffp-roulette-as-the-consequences-of-failing-this-season-becomes-clear/#more-37Any accountant types able to comment on this piece?
