    Been thinking someone may challenge FFP regulations legally for a while, is it restraint of trade to tell a business owner how much they can spend? Or other businesses how much they can pay to advertise by sponsorship?

    Wouldn?t happen in any other industry

    I tend to agree with Martin Samuel who is one of the few journalists who maintains that FFP rules were devised to keep the traditional big clubs at the top and make sure other clubs can?t challenge them

    If that said business owner joined a golf club or a trade organisation he would have to adhere to their rules and regulations or be booted out. The same goes for Man City. If they want to be in the "club" then they agree to the rules, if they don't like the rules they shouldn't have joined.

    Signing today a load of bull then

    Just because nothing has been released, doesn't mean no-one has signed.

    Dear fellow SPIRITES, great news!
    My good friend, Astra, the Pagan Goddess and Official Saviour of the SPIRITES has made a number of wrist bands containing Peppermint, Rosemary and Korean Ginseng for every new signing for the SPIRITES, to wear until the first game of the new season. These herbs all give the wearer a natural energy boost.
    Once all the signing are made she will present them, on the new pitch, at the SIM Stadium in front of as many SPIRITES as can attend.
    So, dear SPIRITES, it's looking great for the new season back in the league.
    Peace, Love and the Joys of Summer to all SPIRITES

    I would hold the Korean ginseng, it can give you excessive wind. The last thing we need is Paddy Madden Donald Trumping every time he kicks the ball.

    Every single Everton is up for sale due to the state of their finances at the moment and FFP still looming large if they don?t sell

    Does the wages of players not registered to play in the first team who are part of the academy/youth/u21 etc come out of a different pot or are they covered by Financial fair play rules?
    I was under the impression they were covered by a seperate budget, but may be wrong.

    PotY do was 17th, Rotherham played at Swansea on 13th.

    He could have took a Segway and still made it back.

    My bad. The question is: If Clucas was actually at Town on the day in question, who was he allegedly with? We can rule out TD as he was in Cyprus and linking us to a player who was at Wembley ready to come on and try and help his team into the Premier league, is a little far fetched.
    I just hope it's not Tom Whelan again.
