Please correct me on this as talking off the top of my head, but my understanding was it's not how much, but the difference. So I think it was Bournemouth that was being done under that Financial Fair Play thing because the balance wasn't close enough between expenditure and income, or something! I'm not sure how this Rule is supposed to create a more level playing field.

FFP runs under defined time limits. You can make 45 million Euros worth of non-infrastructure spending related losses every three years which (Moshiri) can simply write off.

Chelsea's debt level prior to FFP is irrelevant.

It's designed to force clubs to develop their own revenues to fund their activities.

Not to rely on debt. Which was ultimately going to kill clubs. (Parma in Italy. Rangers in Scotland etc).


The issue may be for Bournemouth in the Championship's rules which are more strict than the Premier League or FFP.
