With the money we have spent in the transfer market and the very high wages for free transfers and loans we have about 18 months left before FFP kicks in again.
That's why the owners are getting nervous of 10th place behind teams who have spent next to nothing.

NNR, how do you know what they’ve spent and what their wage bill is ? Let’s not beat about the bush here the mistake is carvalho, like I said at the time spending 13 million on a ‘prospect’ is what prem teams do - not skint championship clubs. We should have limited the spending to around 13 million - I think we’d be about where we are now if we had.

If I remember rightly the 13 million is actually spread over his contract. So it won't really effect FFP that much.

Surely it will still appear on the balance sheet as an expenditure though ??

I know because I read the accounts which are publicly available my friend.
We had 2 years now that is down to 18 months.
The transfer fees and wages are spread over the length of the contract for FFP accounting. Hence you now see longer contracts. Murphy is a prime example of longer contract to reduce FFP impact.
If you look at AK signings a good proportion have been awful. That’s why the owner is nervous.
AK wants more Owner wants sales. Only be one winner!

Sorry pal, crossed wires, I agree with what you say about us I’m just not convinced others have worked on the show string that you think they have. Perhaps you’ve read their accounts and if so fair enough - that was my question .
