Quote from: Percy McCarthy on Today at 01:44:28 AMHow about one like Anfield, but with better transport links? Or an academy that generates more money than every other PL academy bar Chelsea’s? Or a manager like Emery? Or the richest non-state owners in the world? Or getting more players like Tielemans, Kamara, Rogers, McGinn and Konsa for next to fuck all? Or having higher revenue than the vast majority of clubs in England and Europe? Won’t stuff like that allow us to compete?Only we competed with them alright the last three seasons.For scr purposes nothing in that bold bit matters. It's even worse than ffp in that it only cares about commercial performance, sporting success is only relevant for the prize money and potential for better sponsorship.

But for the point of FFP working out, only 3/4 of the fee will appear at most at any one time and others are then dropping off, but the whole of the sold home-grown is on for the three years. So previously Elanga, McTominay, Greenwood, Henderson and the lower priced but multiple numbers of lower placed players all helped them waste the money the last few years. But as SCR seems to be the new thing, it doesn't surprise me that all the clubs with the most revenues are spending all the money this year. Yep, it’s all about revenue. I wonder how long before NSWE realise that only a Spurs style stadium will allow us to compete. How about one like Anfield, but with better transport links?
