Will 2,958 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 FFP calculations running all the way back to the PL season, if you can find a 3 season period where we get close to 39m in cumulative FFP losses I will stand corrected. Link to post Share on other sites

You can control that through soft borrows which he's done but he doesn't have unlimited years to keep doing it. Link to post Share on other sites

Gibson will always invest boro at a loss in the championship for this very reason and max the FFP limit Link to post Share on other sites

Riley mcgree wasn't cheap. Balogun cost a decent fee for a loan and we did bid about 9 million for muniz who went to Fulham. We have money to spend and with the sale of Spence this is enhanced by 15 million 5 Link to post Share on other sites

If its supposedly a wage issue, are we meant to believe we were offering Pelly Ruddock more in wages than we've paid Sporar this season? It doesn't add up. Other than one summer under Woodgate we haven't acted like a team that is under any pressure from FFP, and the figures in the accounts back that up. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

It was wages at the time. 6m is a made up figure he didnt cost anywhere near that Link to post Share on other sites
