I can't take the figures seriously. It screams of being done "backwards".... ie the max permissable loss is £13mil so that's the first number slotted into our "accounts". Then, chuck in loads of lines/numbers with fancy accountancy terminology that support the £13mil outcome and Bob's yer uncle. Oh well, I suspect EFL must have a tacit arrangement with clubs that amounts to "don't take the mickey and we'll rubber stamp it" and we play ball with that. Ultimately, if the EFL applied forensic, robust and stringent examinations of clubs' accounts, probably 80% of them would start new season on a points deduction I reckon. | | |  |

It is an increased allowance due to inflation. £2.5m
It currently applies only to this season (24/25) which will, or course, remain in the FFP calculation for the following two season. It would hardly be a shock if it became permanent. | | | |

I couldn't hand on heart say yes they were specifically brought in by Nourry, but I'm pretty sure we didn't do these things before he was on the scene. | | | |

The only way the Chagos islands deal makes sense is if it's England trying to create more 'allowable costs' so as not to breach Ffp rules | | | |

Re the disallowable costs on infrastructure projects - how much leeway is there in this? For example, could the owners of a club pay for the purchase (or build costs) of a hotel or block of flats or some other income-generating investment on behalf of the club? | | | |

We've got £1m to pay with? Well why haven't we signed a fùcking striker? #nourryout | | | |

Are you trying to say we have the EFL on strings?
Are we Derby now?

You'd probably have to demonstrate in some way that it was towards the operations of the club, but saying that, things like community projects supported by the club are not necessarily towards the operations of the club.
To another poster's point, none of us will know how stringent the auditing from the EFL is. Admittedly I haven't looked at the accounts (look at enough in my day job), but I'd imagine clubs have to list the items and value of such which they are classifying as disallowable costs, so someone at the EFL would be 'reviewing' this. Again, hard to know the level of stringency of any reviews. | | | |

it has always seemed madness to me, so many clubs can run at vast losses, owe taxes etc and most is written off, if we live like that we will go to jail, be bankrupt or be a Tory!! | | | |

To further emphasise the futility of it all Liverpool, one of the biggest clubs in the world have trumped us by posting a loss of £57mil.
Just what is the point???? We go up, become successful, get a new ground, establish ourselves in the Prem, play in Europe but all the while making massive losses that grow year on year.
Surely at some point the Billionaires that bankroll this madness will realise their vanity projects are an insane waste of money. | | | |
