I will sound fairly unpopular and justifiably so just for being here but I did wonder when reading the line by Witcoop about needing to sell. The only two scenarios I can think of are.. 1) You have too many in midfield and want to trim it down. 2) There is that obscure FFP rule that I mentioned albeit the next 2 years Forecast. Whether Stoke are one Idk but I expect a few clubs could be. I think Hull definitely have been one. Loss between £15m and the Upper Loss limit ie 2 Years actual and 1 Year Forecast. I think we were under something similar a couple of years back but the EFL as of 2022 as voted in by the clubs unanimously can look at a forward looking intervention or Monitoring to try and keep a club on the straight and narrow. On that Point 2, the Football Media do not cover it well for some reason. It is in some ways ground-breaking to be looking at Future Forecast Numbers 2 years ahead of time. The premise is that a club are Forecasting an overspend in the period ending 2024-25 or 2025-26 and the forecast goes in 31st March at the latest of the existing Season. Or if in the Reasonable Opinion of the League a Club are set to fail the next year or 2 years hence albeit that is open to challenge by a Club. The squad is large both the HC & TD have both said we want a squad of 22 + youth players. As it stands we probably have room for a Striker & a centre half at a push.

You totally dismiss the idea that the Rule could be catching a few clubs then? I am open minded on it but the Sinclair Armstrong thing did make me wonder based on Witcoop.

The local press downplayed the need for a sale pretty soon after that article and focussed more on a desire to drive down the squad size. Your obsession with seeing us or wanting to see us sanctioned is utterly bizarre. If we got sanctioned tomorrow and got a big enough points deduction to see us into League One, you'd still wake up as a Bristol City fan and you'd still support a club that achieved absolutely nothing, and will achieve absolutely nothing.

We tick a number of boxes for play-off challenging tbh. Income is 6th or 7th highest in the division, enough to build on a solid midtable base. In respect of Rules I think a few clubs could he under a bit of monitoring at least and it is plausible Stoke could have a potential +2 year overspend risk but a deduction if one arose probably would have minimal impact anyway.

What do you know of the CFRP and CFRU?

I believe by Wages it means all Remuneration ie Tax, NI etc.

My working theory is a breach is a risk by Spring 2026 ie the 3 Year Period ending 2025-26. However yeah the Rules seem to be going anyway.

The only reason I see that he has picked BC over us is mainly down to game time he will be a starter for them and a squad player for us.

He's managed to tally up 160 posts on our message board with his doom mongering and still not a single point deducted. It would suggest he knows the square root of fcuk all.

Agree Bristol City are an attractive club and that may have been the reason Sinclair has chosen yourselves. It may also be that you’ve developed a few more strikers in recent years than we have. Personally don’t think he suits either clubs present footballing style, especially yours since you’ve moved to very slow build up play. As for our spending, we could be in a position where we are tight on FFP funds, and or squad size, but most clubs are going to do their best to not bring this into the press as it could impact negotiations. Feel fairly comfortable we will be on the right line all the way with finances now, so you possibly don’t need to worry on our behalf.
