Does money spent on loan agreements and wages count under FFP?

Knowing how much the FA love us, we'll get promoted and then punished with relegation over our FFP interpretations.

Don't ask me about FFP. I'm pretty sure they make it up as they go along.

Well, we can cross Stuart Taylor off the list of potential keepers next season, thanks to this epic announcement.

Yours is the only explanation that makes sense to me.

I've done some in depth research into the way FFP works - so far other clubs breaking FFP rules have been subject to a fine and/or a transfer embargo; when Aston Villa break FFP rules the club will be subject to a points deduction equal to or more than the number of points required to ensure they are not promoted and/or sufficient to ensure they are relegated.

Closing in. We've been closing in for so long now we're standing on his feet, nose to nose.

Maybe we are having to wait until the media team produce the most fantastic signing video ever produced.
