QPR?? not sure if you understand how FFP works. it's on a rolling 3 year period, so they take into account the profits/losses over that period. Given that we spent pittance up until summer 2014, then bought Thorne. Following year Ince, Johnson, Butterfield and co, and then consider that Ince was the up front cash deal (to trigger clause) and the rest were staggered payments over 3-4 years. We have actually only spent half of Thorne's fee, and 1/3 or 1/4 of the rest in the last 3 seasons. Offset against the best turnover in the league, and the most TV money in the league, and the best corporate income in the league. I don't think we've even got close to the threshold.

QPR?? One thing people are overlooking though is that due to the increase in the PL TV deals kicking in this season, the money allocated for football league sides has increased too. Based on previous allocations and the increase seen for the PL deals, the figure could be around £2.5m for Championship clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case then great. we'll wait and see what happens on that front in a few months time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said that your track record of predictions was pathetic. If you can't tell the difference between that and calling you personally pathetic, then I suggest that you ought to pay a little more attention. Have you abused anyone recently on Twitter?

Given the abuse we've all seen you handing out on Twitter, you seem to be of an extraordinarily sensitive disposition when you get a dose of your own medicine.

There's absolutely no doubt in my mind that FFP has played a factor in our transfer approach this season. More likely that he is not stupid. He has spent a lot of money on the academy and players. You don't make money by throwing it around just because you can. Just being sensible, not being held to ransom by other clubs, and putting some control into the County coffers.

I of course support investment in the academy but it would be nice if we could develop a few more into first team players. The route seems to be promising, much-vaunted, Chesterfield, obscurity.
