re: Legal challenge to FFP moving along

I don't understand why people are so against this? I'm a City fan and I think FFP is probably one of the better things to happen to the sport.

Don't get me wrong, I love seeing City beat Sunderland or another lower end PL club 5-0, but it's knowing that these rules are in place that make it more enjoyable for me. City do spend more than say Sunderland, but they would spend even more if the rules weren't there The big clubs just can't binge spend without returning a profit and I do think it creates somewhat of a vastly larger playing field.

I hope FFP stays around for good. I think it will ultimately lead to more entertaining sport.

FFP forced City to be a club again and not a play toy.

It protects the club and forced development even if it will be a write off it was still done.

Most clubs don't turn a profit and the path City is on which was even worse they were never would have made a profit.

People against FFP say who cares if the owner just keep dumping in money on players and crazy wages if they can afford it, but eventually shite will hit the fan.

City and PSG basically ruined the market jacking up transfer fees and wages.

They took what United, Arsenal or Liverpool and other big clubs used to do for one or two players a year and used that as their whole transfer system every year. Chelsea used to but have done a 180.

Would you have agreed with this 8 years ago??

I kind of have mixed feelings about it... I should like it, but I'm not thoroughly convinced..

edit: all that said, it is in place and I'm not that bothered by it..
