Psr can only protect top 6 for so long. Villa and Newcastle are coming and other teams are.

[@4737-Carlin]

All psr is doing is making players no longer want to sign contracts because free transfers are the only way anyone can afford a player Pathetic

[@Cedisdead]

Without it Saudi and American clubs located in england would buy every talent from real european clubs to the then sell them on after they have destroyed their carreers. Look at the biggest economic doped clubs of all time chelsea who just bought their way to success

[@gonufc]

Transfer windows are just so boring now, nothing happens in terms of surprises or excitement. My team, Newcastle, though need to have a good summer or we could be in real trouble. We did nothing last January. Were weaker in September than we were in June (in terms of the squad) and are now weaker today than we were in December. We all want to see this squad strengthened but my worry is that if we don't get Champions league then we won't have this great first 11 to improve! We haven't bought a first team player since Tonali! And people were scared that we'd "Buy the league"....

[@oumuamua1963]

Imagine how good the league would be if ffp were relaxed

[@whatwentwrong4599]

Fully agree, only the biggest clubs can spend, all the rest can dream of one CL season and that's it. Can't buy a squad big enough to compete in the league and CL.

[@Cedisdead]

You a Saudi supporter or what? Havent you economically doped you club enough?

[@harryn1602]

Are you trolling or have an extra chromosome? Look at the league table you pleb 🤡

[@whatwentwrong4599]

@irieite9666 Yeah, the point is for one season and they you're out. Villa probably won't get in again this year and look what happened to Newcastle last year. You've just made my point.

[@Cedisdead]

@@whatwentwrong4599 yeah thank god Saudi couldnt buy champion league like they have bought premier league and the brittish fans. You fans who sellout your clubs and culture to anyone for a little bit of money disgust me

[@potjhm1]

The vast majority of European clubs voted for FFP/PSR & they still back it. If any owner doesn't like the rules in football (the majority of clubs voted for), they are free to leave & start their own league.

[@LGlifeisgood]

PSR and the premier league has destroyed this league , it’s becoming the super league with 14 other clubs in a different league with the same name

[@olaoyewo2308]

Looking at the table how can you say this objectively

[@Cedisdead]

Brittish fans selling their clubs and culture to american companies and arabic states are the problem here. Psr is the only thing that makes the league competetive at all

[@LGlifeisgood]

@ what a load of garbage, nobody had a problem with Americans buying clubs nobody had a problems with the Russians buying Chelsea the Premier League didn’t care neither did fans until Newcastle got bought out and the cartel clubs put every rule to stop the likes of Newcastle and villa spending to keep the status quo , it began with Leicester winning the pl as they didn’t want it , how can these rules be to help sustainability when the likes of Man U are in nearly a billion of debt , it’s all bs to keep the same teams at the top and the bottom teams at the bottom and nobody can challenge the status que you get one or two who get close because the top cartel clubs have a bad season it gives the other teams a chance but they can’t do it every year , so Chelsea man city all got to spend billions on investments into their clubs to make them a big clubs but now the same cartel stopped anyone else , I’m not talking about man city as they are fighting this corruption and anti competitive league in the courts I hope Villa and. Newcastle do the same as it will give smaller clubs the ability to bring in players to compete if their owners fund it ,

[@Cedisdead]

@@LGlifeisgood every fan and real club in Europe has a problem with brittish fans sellingout and destroying competetive football. Maybe you think using arabic states to buy your way to success and destroy competetive football is fine but noone in Europe agrees with you.

[@LGlifeisgood]

@ it’s time the fans across Europe all demand PSR is scrapped but we all know certain club fan base want PSR because it keeps their club at the top , same teams playing champions league football nearly every year across the hole of Europe, same club’s benefit from PSR all the other teams are being held back and all the people who run these leagues also get kick backs for promotion of the same clubs ,

[@jamesfoster5458]

Ultimately think PSR is going to allow other european leagues to overtake us as "the best league in the world" Once upon a time it was all about Italian football. All the stars went there, it was readily available to watch. Then the premier league took over it. We're ruining that now, and suddenly with all the money we've already put into the premier league, it'll implode on itself. Suddenly revenue will drop, and clubs can no longer sustain themselves financially because they've adapted to the current income. Down payments through the football league from the prem will reduce. Along with less funding put into the FA and grassroots football. PSR threatens to do the very thing it was supposedly brought in to prevent. As an extra point that I don't believe is being talked about enough, you currently have Newcastle United, with the "richest owners in the world", potentially having to relocate in order to build a bigger stadium purely to increase revenue, that the owners probably have down the side of their sofa. Moving stadium, and tearing out the beating heart of a city, thereby destroying the city's, and countless business', primary means of income. (I don't know why the Newcastle MPs haven't raised this with parliament) PSR is not only restriction of trade, but it is directly impacting the economy of cities and the country as a result.

[@Cedisdead]

No Psr will stop these american company and arabic state clubs located in england from continuing their economic doping and destroying conoetetive football. Grow your own talents instead of buying european talents from real football clubs

[@LGlifeisgood]

@@jamesfoster5458 it was the best league in the world these PSR rules has destroyed it , look at the transfer windows look at the young home grown talent that has to be sold off to bow down to PSR , smaller teams having to sell their young players to compete financially isn’t what the game is about, these young local players should be playing for their home teams , PSR was to stop any club changing the status quo at the top ,

[@onelove6189]

I’m a toon fan. PSR is a joke. We are still knocking on the door with all the restrictions on us, if we don’t spend money to improve the team in the summer we will struggle if any injuries occur.

[@Graziak5]

PSR is garbage and needs scrapping

[@herrzyklon]

@@Graziak5 OK. But do you think the current rules are better or worse than the alternative? Because there are two immediate options: 1. Keep psr. 2. Your idea. With 1, the checks and balances will eventually be paid and it will drive investment because investment leads to revenue. With 2, the government (the worst government since the 70s, by the way) will take over the regulation of all of UK football, as they've said they would. What do you choose?

You seem to forget that Isak is under contract until 2027, Newcastle do not have to sell him, even if the player wants to move, all Newcastle have to do is inflate his price too a level that only a fool would pay, and the focus will change.

[@TRGoldjkp]

I wouldn't swap Isak for any player in the world.

[@gonufc]

Same, even £200m wouldn't be enough for me. The only club I can see him actually going to is Barcelona once they have their finances magically sorted. Arsenal aren't enough of a leap (a top four team instead of a team challenging for top 4), City have Haaland, Real Madrid have Mbappé, Italian and German clubs aren't spending that. I think Barcelona in a couple years is the most viable possibility. NEVER sell him to Arsenal though! The arrogance in which their fans have talked about signing him means they should NEVER be allowed near him!

[@tracymorgansbelly3322]

​@@gonufcWhy do you think Isak wears 14??? If you dont get UCL next season Isak WILL be an Arsenal player. Stop deluding yourselves. Newcastle haven't won anything in 40 years. Arsenal a a much bigger club than you and clear upgrade.

[@markuswilliams3190]

Psr benefits the very same clubs that protested and tried to prevent newcastles take over.

[@craiglee3653]

Its the first time in the history of football owners aren't allowed to put their own money in. All to protect the dividends certain owners who take out of their clubs. How can investment be bad, but loans and debt are good? You're allowed to lose money every year, which could lead to bankruptcy, but we're meant to believe it's to financially protect clubs. They're protecting certain clubs places in the pecking order, but now its having a negative effect on those clubs too. Wont surprise me to see PSR/FFP go in the near future.

[@paulmcnallyfll8228]

The only winner is gonna be Liverpool, the team that have only spent £12M 😂 with the 3rd or 5th highest wage bill. City have just spent £200M, Villa have increased their wage/turnover % to crazy levels. The majority are in the same boat apart from the oil clubs

[@BigFootSlots]

Psr is a joke

[@KSG-2k]

Mamardashvili for Alison let’s all welcome back the 90s

The best rule for the premier league would be every club must have at least 11 British players in the 26 main squad. Or the maximum overseas players you can have is 15 That's more than fair for everyone as this PSR is ruining some clubs.

[@paulprothero9997]

There’s too much money in the game as it is without rich owners inflating it even more so artificially. Without any rules the wages would be even higher, the transfer fees would be higher and the gap between the top and bottom would be even bigger just with different teams as well being the extreme

[@thepapadanshow1407]

There's too much money because of teams like Man Utd, Chelsea and Man City... now they've stopped other clubs spending big, but the "top 6" clubs can still spend hundreds of millions?! It's fixed to protect them.

That is CRAZY!! Also Isak was bought for £63m…WTF would we give him away for the same price as players like Rice and Grealish when he’s a proven PL scorer and a much better footballer than either of them…and he’s still got 3 years left on his contract?!

[@samsby14]

You wrote all that to be completely wrong about the PSR situation. The POINT everyone is making is that ONLY the big 6 can spend a Billion because of their already established revenue. Every other club cant get to that point of spending because PSR restricts clubs to the level theyre already at. All PSR does is keep the pecking order the same. Which is why people who have owners that can spend but arnt allowed to are saying "PSR is strangling our clubs".

[@SteviePeters-x3u]

This is a strawman there's a different between buying 5 class players a summer than barely being allowed to young players, frees and cut priced players

[@Chegmeister89]

PSR is cheating and anti-competitive as it only allows the already established clubs with the largest revenues to consistently spend the most money i.e the big 6. Clubs like Newcastle and Villa who want to compete are hamstrung and are forced to sell players they don't want to sell to avoid PSR deductions. Getting rid of PSR and letting teams spend what they want would be make the league more competitive.

[@BasereJones]

So it was ok for Man City and Chelsea but Newcastle is not allowed how is that fair?

[@brybry2104]

Not cheating really tho is it? In any other business you’d be encouraged to invest but not football. I m a Newcastle fan and we’ve got a lot of value in the team now. Most players at least doubled in value. If we have to sell Isak or tonali we will get over it. Not that anyone can afford Isak but if they could then good luck to them.

Well, not really, it proves that Mike Ashley prostituting the club for free advertising meant that there was practically no commercial income so it all had to be generated again. Less commercial revenue means less capability to spend. But "Big" is pretty relative isn't it? For example, compared to a sea anemone you're pretty intelligent but compared to a Donkey, you're not.
