This shows how unfair the world of football is, Everton are a poor smaller club so the FA can punch down on them as they please. Whereas the top clubs are given special treatment and allowed to bend the rules, can hire the best lawyers and being state owned gives them unlimited power
FFP is the definition of giving top clubs special treatment lmao.
“these 5 historically huge clubs are allowed to spend 5x everyone elses budget in the name of fairness”
sure we know these rules didn’t exist for most of our history and we always outspent everyone else but now we’re making sure nobody else can do it to. That’s all FFP did was solidify their places at the top so outside investment is largely almost irrelevant because you didn’t already have the fan base and deals to spend like is necessary to win
That’s exactly what it is.
