2 + 2 = 6 post of the day on 16:21 - Mar 23 with 1736 views | HighgateBlue | We won't be able to afford to buy him permanently within the P&S rules unless we go up. If we go up, his value is surely 8 figures. It's a lot, but he fits the profile of the sorts of signings that Ashton is well known for, and of course Omari is well known to the Club and the fans. If we go up, we should, and I imagine we will, try to get him. It would be terrific if we succeeded. But I really don't think that it pays to think about it too much until we know what division we'll be in. And I'd rather think about promotion anyway - after all, we're not trying to go up in order to grab Omari. We grabbed Omari in order to try to go up. COYB. | | | |

If this money is coming into the club as equity capital, rather than a director's loan, my understanding is that we are allowed to spend it, as it counts as income. | | | |

Believe that is the case for clubs in leagues one and two, but there is a different set of rules governing FFP in the championship. | |

That can’t be right. Abramovic was the irresponsible spender, not the good guy that came after him!! | |

I agree with you. Quite sure the interview the club did stated the money is available to spend but not on transfer fees. | |
