The Dukeries Owl Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Perhaps FFP should be based on a percentage of a club's turnover? as no 2 clubs are the same and losing a million would be a disaster for some clubs but of little consequence to others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it is in League 1 in the sense that player wages are limited to a percentage of turnover. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beswetherick Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Can’t go over budget if there’s no budget to go over Seriously though, I do feel that DC appears to have started to learn his lesson, which can only be a good thing. Still a very long way to go until his ownership can be considered an overall success, but last summer to now feels like we’re slowly moving in the right direction. DC being DC though, that could all change tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely every club should agree a budget regards what is affordable and stick to it. His heart is in the right place but it seems he hasn't learnt the previous errors of his ways. I suppose it might be a mis communication and he means he has a budget but tries to be flexible around it, being ambitious (when needed) but always keeping one eye on the Profit and Sustainability rules. Give over...no need to have a dig. He is learning from previous mistakes. What he means is that if we need to spend at the appropriate time to get us over the line then he would. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t worry too much about budgets, we’ll flash the cash this summer !! #uto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sign we are getting better organised. Surely this is a given set by any professional football club ? Even Chansiri must have learnt something after 7 bloody years.

BridportOwl Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 I read his comments as there is a budget, but if for unforeseen circumstances we have to splash the cash then we will. If we lost a key player in pre-season to a serious injury then the funds would be there to replace him. Personally I am feeling really good about going into the nest season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
