The FFP rules are different in Leagues 1 and 2 and "wealthy owners can therefore fund the club spending in a way that is not permitted in other divisions". So they are not cheating.

Whether it is right or wrong is another matter.

Of course it’s right . That’s how capitalism works it’s it ? It happens throughout the football world from the smallest team to the biggest. Just let go and enjoy watching The Mighty Mariners

What is borderline within the rules for Christ's sakes?
The same as only just the right change from a tenner?
It's within the rules or it isn't.


Is it as simple as that though? I understand the Derby owner set up a new company, sold Pride Park to the company (himself for all intents and purposes) which allowed them to sign Wayne Rooney on huge money. There is some debate whether they are compliant with FFP. These loopholes need closing as clubs will use them to gain an advantage.

So as long as it’s within the rules morality can go to buggery. Next you’ll be saying as long as you don’t get caught it’s OK.

And yet I bet you were slagging off the MPs who exploited loopholes in their expenses claims.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Don’t judge everyone by (your own lack of) standards.

In spite of all this bending of financial rules by various clubs, none of them ever seem to go that high in the football pyramind. Fleetwood look to have found their highest level at league 1, Crawley and Village Green in league 2. Manchester City may be the exception, but they climbed (cheated, if you see it that way) before financial rules came into being.
Eventually the rich kids will get bored of Salford and they'll settle at league 1 if they're lucky, more likely league 2. I find it hard to take them seriously, but it doesn't bother me too much -  there are bigger things to worry about.
