"If Everton were playing at the bottom of my garden, i'd close the curtains”
Have to say on the whole I don't really agree with ffp. It does protect the already established legacy clubs and makes it difficult for traditionally smaller clubs to ever harbour serious ambitions of becoming a regular winner.
But on this occasion and the absolute state of that fan base couldn't have happened to a nicer bunch of cunts.
IF and that's a big IF the Premier League do act accordingly as without the fiddling of the books UAE FC were well beyond their 105m maximum spending deficit in 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 and retrospectively dock them 9-15 points for both those seasons, making us last season's Premier League winners it would only be fit and proper that an appropriate shaming ceremony were arranged with their players involved returning their medals and the trophy and standing there looking forlorn and to get the appropriate humiliation at a packed Anfield

The thing is the 'regular winners' or at least most of them (in this country anyway) didn't just click their fingers and become serial winners overnight. They built themselves up over time, something that other clubs can still do. Yes it might be a bit harder in this day and age, but there is a big difference between a club being given 'a helping hand' and 'being bankrolled'. The latter should never be allowed.
I surely HAS to be retrospective punishment, they benefited on the pitch in 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 from having the players they were able to add as a result of cheating FFP and cheating every other club in the league in the process, so punish them next season when they're no longer in breach and to hell with all the clubs they cheated? That would be very fucked up
