TeaCider24 12,639 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 If it's a genuine risk, then it would make sense to cash in in Tavernier for as high a fee as we can. It would offset a significant amount. Link to post Share on other sites

Can you imagine the Derby fans' response if we do get tripped up by FFP? (Don't think we will, but the gloating would be incalculable). Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,283 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 All clubs are (or should be) under scrutiny of FFP. Seems like a pretty nothing comment to me. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Brunners 7,982 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Gibson isn't an idiot, I would be absolutely floored if we failed FFP after he's gone after Derby so hard. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,639 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 With Stoke, I'm not an accountant or even good with maths, but there's a poster on FMTTM who is adamant that they've cheated the system by dumping all of their players values in one season to circumvent FFP after the huge sums they've spent in recent years. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Just the article itself seems to have plucked us out to say something that applies to all clubs without really saying what that is. Poor form from them. Link to post Share on other sites

I bet Derby fans are wanking themselves off over the headline without actually reading it though. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure what this means, do you have a link? If it's the amortisation of players values they have changed then that is exactly what Derby have just been deducted 9 points for so good luck to them. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
