Qpr financial fair play

[Donki]

According to the two season ticket holders in my office, it's much more Hughes than Redknapp. And they aren't Harry fans.

Chairmans responsibility to balance books and say "no". The manager is there to say what he needs, ofc he could be shit and wrong, but the chairman should take responsibility for a clubs finincial demise IMO. But yeah, Hughes spending was shocking and on SHIT!

Wasn't it something like released Paddy Kenny who was on 15k a week, brought in Rob Green on 50k, then 2 weeks later bought in Cesar on 70k!

The whole idea that FFP punishments are fines is fucking laughable though, penalise them with points dedutions thats the only way it will ever work.

I agree, but how many points? A few and it wouldn't make a lot of difference, a lot and we'd have to put up with Arsenal winning the league because City, Chelsea and Liverpool get points deducted. Hey, we might even end up as runners up if I was in charge of deducting points.

Yes Hughes spent big, but Fernandes wrote the cheques.

Either way, you can relate it to the period of time the manager was there.

He signed 25 players in his time there

It's really simple. The rules they have broken are Football League rules, if QPR stay up they won't be in the Football League so the rules wouldn't effect them. Only if QPR are relegated would this effect them as they then be a Football League club again.

Right. I was thinking of it more as rules which govern the entire football system.

That's not how English football is run. The Premier League manage obviously enough The Premier League and that includes compliance rules for member clubs. The next three levels in England are managed by The Football League and have a different set of rules for their member clubs. I honestly thought this was common knowledge.

Go fuck yourselves.
Deal with Shitty and Chelscum first, you cowards.

Please tell me how the Football League is going to deal with Man City and Chelski?

They don't. The premier league does and as QPR are in the prem, the football league should have no jurisdiction over them and shouldn't be able to threaten QPR with relegation. Both authorities should be on the same page and it's very, very unfair that they get threatened with relegation while Chelscum and Shitty escape.

QPR have been mentioned because there is a chance they may end up re-applying for Football League membership soon - much as it would be hilarious there is 0 chance of Chelsea or Manchester City being in the same situation. The FL are not threatening QPR with relegation as such, just saying that they would not accept their request for membership and so they would have to apply to the Conference (who could in theory also reject their membership request).

This about QPR not meeting FFP rules when they were in the championship last season. Now what the FL have said is if QPR don't either produce the results for the last financial year or pay a fine if they don't one of the sanctions is them being denied entry into the Football League if QPR are relegated from the Premier League.

As long as QPR stay in the Premier League the Football League can't touch them.

That would be terrible, I don't like QPR but I wouldn't want to see that happening to them.

 

[fridgemagnet]

but Fernandes wrote the cheques.

He may have wrote them but did he sign them? Because he didn't sign a lot of the ones to his suppliers when he owned his Caterham F1 team, going off the article in the OP it seems like he believes he can pay a reduced fine but I think a lot of his business interests are now standing on sand and he may have a lot of creditors chasing him soon.

I knew they were separately operated, but as they are overseen by the FA it made sense to me that the FA would govern them by central rules. So what does the FA mean then, sod all apart from the national team?

The Football Association, also known simply as the FA, is the governing body of football in England, and the Crown dependencies ofJersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man. Formed in 1863, it is the oldest football association in the world and is responsible for overseeing all aspects of the amateur and professional game in its territory.

The FA sanctions all competitive football matches within its remit at national level, and indirectly at local level through the County Football Associations. It runs numerous competitions, the most famous of which is the FA Cup. It is also responsible for appointing the management of the men's, women's and youth national football teams.

The FA is a member of both UEFA and FIFA and holds a permanent seat on the International Football Association Board (IFAB) which is responsible for the laws of the game. As the first football association, it does not use the national name "English" in its title. The FA is based at Wembley Stadium, London.

All of England's professional football teams are members of the Football Association. Although it does not run the day-to-day operations of the Premier League, it has veto power over the appointment of the League Chairman and Chief Executive and over any changes to league rules.[1] The Football League, made up of the professional leagues below the Premier League, is self-governing.

Yeah, so what's you're point?

You asked what the FA is. I gave you their description.

I though it was clearly a rhetorical question. I knew all of that article, my post included part of it.
