pazowl55 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 With FFP. Pretty sure it will just carry on so year 1 will be knocked off and year 4 added so to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way was the club who bid for Forestieri paying much more over £7m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure Forest's problems are caused by FFP!! They've been out of the sactions for a year or so now. I think they were last under embargo when they sold Antonio but since FFP they've been crippled by lack of investment. Their problems were caused by their excessive wage structure and long contracts for deadwood which sounds all too familiar.

gurujuan Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Our recruitment policy has been chaotic, 36 players signed in 2 years at a cost of about £35m, and yet the nucleus of the current side, were all here pre the spending Absolutely barmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazowl55 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 (edited) We won't sell Forestieri or Bannan or anyone important to us, unless they state they want a move. Will just ship out fringe players to balance the books. Edited August 1, 2017 by pazowl55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their problems were caused by their excessive wage structure which sounds all too familiar. Reckon Forest's problems stemmed from the owner losing interest. And you're right, they were under embargo when they sold Antonio and still didn't invest once it was lifted - presumably due to the lack of interest from said owner.

UTO Speaking to BBC Radio Sheffield on Monday, he explained: "We are probably (on) the line (of FFP), which is why we achieve a player so far that is, George Boyd, it was a free player. And we try to find a free player. "Also I’ve said since I arrived that if the chairman is happy to sell any player I never have a problem in any club to sell one player in the past. And in the club so far the chairman prefers to stay with the players - I am very happy about that. Numpty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigdan2003 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 FFP....is there any evidence to suggest that it's actually working? We continue to see transfer values rise, and rich relegated clubs get their relegation bonus money. It's really not been thought about. Are we in danger right now? Or do we have until the end of the season? Would the 8 or 10 million spent on Rhodes be spread across the length of his contract? Its bobbar or bust this season imo. If we fail to get promoted again then I'd imagine there'll be a clear out next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had the pulling power and they had the finances, just didn't have the interest. Derby wanted him for £7m and wouldn't have paid much more. They knew Forestieri wasn't happy with his contract and tried their luck. Every player is for sale at the right price, Derby were only interested in getting a steal - or moving on.

NorthernOwl Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 23 minutes ago, vulva said: Making the world aware that you are close to FFP doesn't exactly put you in the best bargaining position either. Re selling a player, the obvious one is FF. Not a guaranteed starter, we would get a decent fee and has got a history of throwing his toys out of the pram. Depends how you look at it. You could easily say it will stop people asking for overinflated fees if they don’t think we are flush with cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
