Breached FFP and got a £7.5 Million fine. Worth it now that they are in the PL but seems more than a bit wrong
Posted an overall loss of £38Million. Not quite the plucky little minnows everyone thinks eh? Attachment: FFP.jpg (39.96Kb)

Fines aren't much of a worry for clubs with wealthy owners who are willing to pay them and the only punishments that will work are docking points or transfer embargos

Leicester got away with it because they copied the Man City blueprint, of inventing a sponsorship smokescreen whereas Bournemouth didn't. Leicester have in other ways have shown this season money isn't everything. 5th lowest wage bill in the premier this season

They don't have to pay the fine either, like QPR tried, unless they're worried about relegation and getting kicked out of the football league.

At the moment, instead of punishing financial breaches, a situation has been created whereby clubs can massively gamble and for those that achieve promotion, they get away with it because they receive the impact that they can most handle. It's just as dangerous as it was beforehand as it makes the incentive for breaking the rules that much greater. Ideal situation would be PL and FL fair play schemes which run side by side to ensure punishments are consistent, even when clubs swap leagues.

It is madness, surely the FA should be the over arching authority?

It's more dangerous than before, you've got clubs spending £6m & £9m on a single player. Fulham spent £11m on one last year and didn't even come close to getting promoted.
