So it’s hardly surprising Everton have been on a steep decline ever since Carlo Ancelotti’s departure in 2021.
Didn't the Aston Villa owners do that with Villa Park. Sold it to themselves to help with PSR or something. It's a farce
PSR has made it even harder for most clubs to compete at the top, or even near it,
Compare the revenue of, say, Man Utd and Ipswich Town and where's the FFP?
So, what is the point of it?

Also shows how badly we're being run that the spending elsewhere and other incomes are even making PSR an issue.

The major problem is the wages players are getting without delivering much in return. We`ve been victim to this over the years but happily seem to be coming out the other side with the new ground hopefully opening up new revenue that I hope won`t be thrown at beefing up players wages. I`m all for players reaping the benefits of their success, but the ways its gone in football most seem to be reaping the benefits of their inability to succeed.

I wouldn't just attribute since Ancelotti's departure. It's been indicative of Everton since Moyes first stint, with Robert Elstone failing to attract sponsorship deals for the club that match are position in the game.
Always felt we should have easily kept pace with Spurs on that front and seeing the vast difference in revenue between us two is a key factor. In all our problems.
Sponsorship deals is probably the biggest factor in success for clubs these days, why City broke all them rules years ago to make sure they have revenue flowing in. Something we tried but failed when the Russian war broke out.

How are Bournemouth and Fulham spending so much and being compliant?

And wham, palace and Brentford - their turnover can’t be great, nor can it just be the wages they are paying…
Even the scabs6 just can’t be compliant, wider than United and Chelsea.
It was just another stitch up to help the scab6 out, and now that a few of the chosen clubs have fallen foul of it, it gets lashed in the bin for this year!?
The other 14 need to collectively grow a spine and start kicking off about this favouritism crap.

Wage bills or more specifically extremely high wage to turnover ratio, why both us and Leicester have been under the scunity with PSR.

Think this graphic shows it best. And see how the top ratio of teams have been under the microscope with PSR.
The biggest example of how the premier league use psr to keep the "bigger" clubs at the top.

But it is isn't it? However it is calculated/worked out, the rule is you're allowed to make a loss of £135m over 3 seasons, correct? So that is basically net spend. So if we're at +£80m for the last two seasons then we could lose £215m this season and still be within that limit (for this season at least).
