You need big balls to be a success in the premier league, so this fella is fucked.

I think you’ll find I’ve already formed the TT branch of the St Mirren supporters club. If you want to apply for membership PM Andrew for a form :huff:

The spending cap has been voted in. man city, man utd and villa all voted against it and chelsea abstained. Fuck know what it all means but there's going to be a spending cap now.

Won't come in immediately (think it's not til 25/26), but the prevailing view seems to be that in the short to medium term, it'll be good news for us and will loosen the purse strings a decent amount.

Surely that's the same for villa though, so a bit odd they'd vote against it. Unless they are so cock sure of themselves and think they'll be able to maintain top 4 form next year whilst getting bummed by celtic on Wednesday's

Not really, the 85% spending cap as a percentage of revenue still applies and is reduced to 70% by UEFA rules.

Is this not to replace the 85% spending cap? If not then what is the fucking point, it doesn't level anything. "You can spend c£400m this year, but only if it's less than 85% of your revenue" is fucking mentally over complicated.

I think it's basically to stop the biggest earning clubs taking advantage of the 85% figure as obviously that will be multiples of the revenue of the lowest earning club. But in effect I don't think this will really change anything as it's only really Man City and Chelsea that are adversely affected by it.
