Villa's name on that list dovetails quite nicely with their wish to increase allowed losses to £135m over the rolling period (as long as a shareholder adds money to the club within that period).

Wonder if that extra £10m per year is a similar amount to what they look to be going over by?

I thought in the 25/26 season the rules are changing anyway?

Can only spend 4 times what the lowest club earns or something like that? Or was that just a proposal?

This has been confirmed at today's PL AGM:
At the Premier League’s Annual General Meeting today, clubs agreed to trial an alternative League-wide financial system next season (2024/25) on a non-binding basis.

The existing Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR) will remain in place, but clubs will trial Squad Cost Rules (SCR) and Top to Bottom Anchoring Rules (TBA) in shadow.

This will enable the League and clubs to fully evaluate the system, including the operation of UEFA’s equivalent new financial regulations, and to complete its consultation with all relevant stakeholders.

The overall system aims to improve and preserve clubs’ financial sustainability and the competitive balance of the Premier League, promote aspiration of clubs, facilitate a workable alignment with other relevant competitions and support clubs’ competitiveness in UEFA club competitions, while providing certainty and clarity for clubs, fans and stakeholders.

SCR will regulate on-pitch spend to a proportion (85 per cent) of a club’s football revenue and net profit/loss on player sales.

TBA is a League-level anchor linked to football costs, based on a multiple of the forecast lowest central distribution for that season. It is designed to be a pre-emptive measure to protect the competitive balance of the Premier League. This protection is intended not to have an impact unless significant revenue divergence of clubs occurs.

So what does this mean?

Like the post-match red card bans we’re the only soft cunts getting done again?

Just means clubs like Chelsea can keep cooking their books by selling their own assets to themselves to get around P&S rules.

And it reinforces the idea that the financial rules in football are less about right/wrong, and more about what you can get away with.

Just to note the prem tried to close the loophole, the clubs voted not to in a majority.

Most likely we were one of the clubs voting not to.

Maybe we can sell Michael Keane to our u23s for £50m?

Probably on Park Lane and Mayfair, and as an Evertonian we’ll land on Park Lane, then throw a double one.
