I don't mind it, tbf. Though I think the 85% should only apply to teams who have been promoted in last couple of seasons so that they have a chance to spend money to give themselves a chance of competing like we did. It doesn't benefit the league if you have the three newly-promoted clubs all effectively relegated by Easter as happened in the last two seasons (admittedly, they're doing better this season, Burnley excepted).

Problem though is what if you're at 85% or even more and quallify for Europe. We nearly did the year we were back up.

Then your sponsorship and revenue goes up to balance it..

Apart from the Conference League won't create that much.

That's a problem UEFA needs to address. punishing a team for daring to qualify for Europe earlier than planned is fucking ridiculous (and is pretty much exactly what happened to us).

So it basically  means you win the booby prize if you qualify for Europe

So if your someone like leeds you can spend a fortune to qualify for europe then when you qualify you have to sell a majority  of your squad  ti comply with uefa rules as the wage rule is lower.

God this is so stupid its unbelievable

Stupid is what it isn't, it works very effectively and is the cost of keeping the arsehole clubs from running off to their super league.
