I see, apologies for not reading the full thread. I guess that means the real FFP numbers are hidden and we as fans don't really have any way of tracking them with the publicly disclosed accounts alone. 

That said, the Wharton money doesn't have any bearing on the 22/23 accounts and are irrelevant to my post.

If the FFP calculations result in a loss exceeding the lower threshold (£15 million over a rolling three year period) than a club has to send the EFL future financial projections covering the next two accounting periods.

If these projections show a potential breach of the upper threshold (£39 million over a rolling here year period) then the following regulation comes into play.

This means the Wharton money is already of use for FFP purposes (although I doubt this was their main motivation for pushing him out the door)

wonder what the excuse for no transfer budget is this summer,im`e leaning towards the maintenence and regeneration of ewood.i.e painting steelwork,cleaning roof etc etc etc,they`ve  neglected it for seasons so in true swag  sense it will take millions to put right instead of doing it on a season by season rota,wouldn`t surprise me if a new pitch appeared as well,anything not to spend money on players,i honestly think it`s all going to unravel next season and with fortune and the lords help.the end of swag,broughton and the indian fraudsters(allegedly!!)

Can't block those pathways for the youngsters. It just wouldn't be fair to sign proven players when we've an academy model to follow!

That's why hes dropped it in there and it was inevitable anyway they were always waiting for a huge sale before commencing any extra maintenance that's why its never been done. A few quid from a big Dack and BBD sale would have seen some done no doubt but they never materialised.

The owners who never refuse a cheque and are exempt from FFP on this one really came up trumps again eh.

I was passing Ewood today and noticed a large sink hole had opened up near the BBE. Waggot was looking into it.

Although they are always “willing to sign the cheque”, why is it whenever it comes to money spending in the transfer window or something major, this doesn’t really happen?

Any update on the McGurie transfer? Maybe this question could be asked at the next meeting.

Then fill the fucking hole with concrete.

50MPa with steel fibres. Also chuck in some accelerant to make sure it sets before the cunt can try and crawl back out.

Needed to add the specs for the concrete.

In the channel today, a ship carrying blue paint collided with a ship carrying red paint…both crews have been marooned…

Waggott could easily be a character played by Ronnie Barker.

With the state of him he surely can't be for real.

All the toilets were today stolen from Blackburn Police Station. Lancashire Constabulary say they have nothing to go on.

If maggot and the owners came onto the pitch at halftime and committed harakiri that would cheer me up.

The minutes show the question was asked and the answer was a fudge.
