Re: Leicester City to fall foul of PSR?
Definitely. Like I said, corrupt as fuck. The obscenely rich clubs get away with it like city and Chelsea when they had blank chequebooks from sugar daddy owners and brought success. Nothing happens with them. I’m not saying Leicester are innocent here but it’s funny how ‘smaller’ clubs like this are punished yet the sugar daddy clubs like the two mentioned above get away with itEvertonfc15 wrote:and city just keep spending and spending and spending and hoover up all the best players in the prem

Re: Leicester City to fall foul of PSR?
Really hope they go down. Can't see it though as youd imagine they are the best of the bottom few. Having said that they've had an awful season even without the deduction
Re: Leicester City to fall foul of PSR?
They are in the middle of an awful run in which they just can't win a game, even when they were leading 3-0 in one of them.777Kidnappings wrote: ↑Sat Feb 14, 2026 6:52 pm Really hope they go down.

They're stuck in a rut, they are in big trouble

Absolutely devastating what's happening at Wednesday.
More needs to be done to punish corrupt owners.
Could easily have been us this if 777 got in.

The EFL have also randomly decided to limit their wage bill to £7m next season (currently £15m) and cap maximum wage at £7k per week
On top of the 15 point deduction
It’s like they’re purposely trying to sink them

As with us, it's easy for them to act tough on struggling teams then turn around and ignore what the likes of Chelsea were doing.Cereal Killer wrote: ↑Tue Mar 17, 2026 10:10 pm The EFL have also randomly decided to limit their wage bill to £7m next season (currently £15m) and cap maximum wage at £7k per week

Re: Leicester City to fall foul of PSR?
Leicester City made a pre-tax loss of £71.1m in their solitary season back in the Premier League in 2024-25.
It takes the club's financial losses over the three-year period when they yo-yoed between the top flight and Championship to more than £180m.
And while the sum is almost £100m over permitted losses of £83m under profit and sustainability (PSR) rules, the club is understood to be confident of avoiding any breaches when add-backs - things such as the club's investment in infrastructure, women's football and youth development - are factored in.
With Leicester being deducted six points this season for past overspending, the magnitude of the Foxes' losses in the 12 months up to June 2025 will undoubtedly come under scrutiny.
The amount of money lost in recent years and the two relegations in three seasons that have dropped Leicester back into the Championship - where they are now battling to avoid tumbling into League One - have been the source of growing discontent among the Foxes' fanbase.
Leicester's chief executive Kevin Davies says "improving" the club's financial position "remains a priority and will continue to shape the decisions we take as a club".
"We know supporters want to see Leicester City run responsibly, with the right balance between giving us the best chance of success on the pitch and building greater financial stability for the future," he told the club website, external.
"These financial statements show there is still more work to do and we are clear about that."
Can Leicester comply with spending rules?
Leicester have been locked in legal battles relating to their spending for a number of years now.
They wrangled themselves out of trouble when they last dropped into the Championship in 2023-24 but the cumulative losses of more than £201m they made in the years between 2022 and 2024 eventually saw them punished this season.
In that three-year period, covering two campaigns in the Premier League and one in the Championship, they were eventually found to have breached the allowable PSR threshold of £83m by £20.8m when add-backs were factored in.
The latest three-year snapshot concerning PSR also relates to two top-flight campaigns and one in the second tier.
This time they have cumulatively haemorrhaged £180m, which includes the adjusted £89.5m loss when relegated from the Premier League in 2023 and the £19.4m loss when they won promotion as Championship title-winners in 2024.
It is that reduction on previous losses in the Premier League that improves the Foxes' outlook when it comes to spending rules, even if their bottom line looks grim.
The money lost remains something that the club's owners are willing to absorb, even at a time when the King Power duty-free business in Thailand, which has been intrinsically linked to the club since the Srivaddhanaprabha family bought the Foxes in 2010, has faced financial difficulties in recent years.
It was in January last year that King Power and owner Khun Aiyawatt 'Top' Srivaddhanaprabha wiped out £124m of the club's debt, external.
The owner also provided a cash injection of £14.3m in 2024-25.
