reaffirms my belief the big Clubs can and will spend whatever it takes to get back on to daddy war buck's payroll.
The only positive I can see here is that smaller Clubs ( depending on their financial situation) can finally gouge the larger Clubs for transfer fee's.
Clearly isn't "FAIR."
However, Bristol City can now bring in half a team at £2m each to make them a top half team & push them towards the top six.
FFP just favours teams on parachute payments.
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
