FFP

So they have stated to UEFA we can't make the deficit be €5mil but we can at €10mil (at a guess) we promise and then €5mil the next year. In the meantime we will suffer two years of definite A list restrictions even if we actually don't have a deficit the following reporting period. People seem to have actually interpreted it as removal of all restrictions this year but is actually an extension of them.

Here’s something that seems relevant. Interested to read H&Vers interpretation. I’ve been up since 4pm on Friday so I’m not going to apply what’s left of my energy to it.

That’s a lot of sums, Percy.

I’m going to need a longer run-up. 👍

Indeed. Sounds like you’ve got FFP-fatigue like me.

I thought I understood it, up to the point where AVU said, ‘let me break it down’.

Then I started seeing flying doughnuts.

I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re consulting with UEFA’s financial police after nearly every deal and contract is signed.

Like ‘right, we did this, what can we do now?’
