Why? And why are they not stepping in with every club who is blowing a fortune every season?
Aren’t we totally free from restriction after this season? We’ll be treated the same as everyone else
They stepped in before we actually breached FFP, we had am embargoin place 18 months before we got the deduction. They will be monitoring our position in the same way they monitor all the clubs. Because we have breached once they’ll want to make sure we don’t breach again - preventative rather than punitive measures.
They placed our initial embargo (in 2019) for breaching profit an sustainability rules, which was also reactive because of how poor our finances were due to ridiculous amounts of overspending, but then allowed us to go and spend over £15m in that summer as well whilst also placing Birmingham under a similar embargo, a registration embargo, but yet they purchased Kristian Pedersen for £2m.
Overall though, the point is they wouldn't step in again next summer unless we were to breach either profit & sustainability rules or FFP again, in which case they'd step in either in January 23 if our finances really were that bad or the following accounting year.
So If we were in danger of breaching for a second time they would step in, you seem to be arguing against yourself here.
From the EFL rules
‘With a priority to ensure future compliance with the P&S rules, Clubs have agreed that where a breach is forecasted in future years then the League should have the ability to impose a business plan or appropriate monitoring requirements.’
You don’t have to have actually breached, you just need to be forecasting that you will in the mandatory reporting every club has to make.
