you tell me to cheer up yet you said I need psychological help. Madness.

Mentals can be happy too!!

Don't sound too confident from those Martinez comments.

Think you are mixing two things up here

The FA rule is about who pays the player and on which payroll they are shown

Neither the FL version of FFP nor indeed the PL version would overrule FA regulations.What we are talking about here is what is shown under the heading "wages in relation to FFP and in terms of a loan player what and how a club is charged .

Put quite simply some clubs don't charge anything to a club that takes one of their players on loan, some charge just a proportion of the wages, some charge the wages plus a premium,some only charge expenses and I believe some charge all of that as well as the amortised costs.

Without seeing the agreements that were in place we have no way of knowing.

All we do know is that neither Lukaka or Barry weren't their paid wages through Everton

I've already covered this.

And I agree.

Anyway loan wages aren't in wage bill for FFP of the loaned to club. Theyre in transfer and related expenditure since thats how its defined in FIFA transfer regulations.

Unless he's unveiled on the official site singing Stevie Wonders 'signed sealed delivered, I'm yours' as he gives Besic a piggy back around Goodison by 4pm today, then I'm going to obliterate a small village.

One day I'll come on, see this thread at the top, and inside it'll say "signed"

Just covering himself incase it doesn't come off as he'd look like a t*t with how confident he's been acting.

I've defo missed something.

Or are you doing that thing where you say 'it's off' so when it happens it's really boss?

I'm doing that thing where It was very much on until I read those comments, now it's very much off withh the potential to be switched back on at a later date.

 

[meagher94]

I'm still confident we'll get him despite the comments. I'd be pretty devastated if we don't tbh.

Martinez apparently told the Echo that reports of him/us being confident of signing Rom are "wide of the mark".

No idea mate.

I went to a BBQ on Saturday night and don't feel I've caught up at all.
