Was it phased in or just a new rule, I can’t remember! Feels like we plunged in without knowing it was an issue. Sensible thing to do would be to give sufficient notice and phase it in, maybe they did. If they did, we’re idiots.

I agree with this but would add that there is no way he has just dropped that comment off the cuff. He will have been told by the people that he is employing, the buck stopping with big Kev, that we have A, B and C in place and will be stronger going forward.

To be honest I don't even recall. I think it was already a thing and Moshiri thought we were just a couple of steps away from CL contention, but I don't remember well enough. The money in the Prem gets more insane every season. I almost admire Forest going for it...there's such a big gap between leagues that it's almost the more sensible thing to do compared to what Bournemouth have done, and I think we'll see that play out this season. But it's the sheer number of players that is shocking - it's basically going to be like a Sunday pick up game for them for the first portion of the season, where you don't know anyone on your team.
Clubs own the PL they could get rid it of it very easily.

Don't understand why others are spending hundreds of millions and staying within the so called spending rules. Something phoney going on. Rules for some and not for others.
It’s not about what you spend mate, it’s about what you loose.

You need all but six clubs to do that. I can think of six clubs that are likely to be opposed (well, maybe five with Boehly over at Chelsea) off the top of my head, because they don't want Newcastle to knock them off their perch. Add in a couple of the perennial midtable sides, and there's no way the votes are there.

it is probably a question how badly he wants out. Been reading that he wants to play more with the World Cup coming up. If Ziyech is going to Ajax it will help because it will mean Dutch player Steven Berghuis moving inside to the nr 10 role again and Davy Klaassen also an option for them
I was speaking theoretically really mate in the sense of the projection of an outside third party corrupt force - the clubs own the PL.
Speaking hypothetically be a lot of all politicking alright mate, but i don’t think it’s impossible, eventually most of the league will be made up of very wealthy owners who may want the shackles of to privately invest to compete, it’s a billionaires playground now. I think there could be some appetite given the ESL thing, I think everyone got a fright there.
If it came to pass it would really make the league competitive as the sides that qualified for Europe would still be governed by the UEFA FFP, so would have to stay within limits.

""Today, the big blow arrived. The Premier League shareholders passed a set of financial regulations for its clubs. These rules, like those set forth by UEFA, also encourage teams to work towards break-even. Beginning with the 2013/14 season, Premier League clubs cannot make a loss in excess of £105 million total across a three season period. Additionally, clubs will be restricted in terms of the amounts of Premier League Central Funds that can be used to increase player wages. This portion of the rules essentially amounts to a soft-salary cap. If the club exceeds the cap then additional wages cost will have to be funded by increased commercial revenues that the club itself made during the season."
A Brief Analysis of the EPL's New Financial Reform
Financial reform in football has been a pet project of UEFA President Michel Platini for years, but the reforms were never going to mean much if the big leagues didn't buy in. Today, the English Premier League has joined the financial reform movement
