I’ve always been surprised we didn’t end up with a massive sponsorship deal for ‘Visit Greece’ or similar

Why has it taken two more months for the PL to charge Leicester than it did for them to charge Forest and Everton?
Couldn't find them on the table....

At the end of last season, the PL clubs voted to implement a new PSR timetable to ensure all charges/sanctions were applied in the same season. Part of this meant that PL clubs had to submit their June 23 accounts to the PL on Dec 31st.
Leicester were relegated before that vote, so aren't subject to the new timetable.

Interesting. But surely that didn't stop the Premier League from charging them when they charged us and Everton anyway?
It seems like it's not coincidence that they're announcing this charge a couple of days after they successfully deducted 4 points from Forest. Are they getting more encouraged with each club they punish? It rather begs the question how many other clubs could be charged.

I doubt they'd have seen their accounts in time to charge them when Forest/Everton got done.
I'd imagine the timing is because the end of March is when you have to submit your annual accounts to Companies House (9 months after year end). So either the PL have now seen them & don't like them, or they still haven't seen them & assume they are hiding something (a la Derby).

Oh. that's easy. Somewhere between 14 and 12.

And is evidently a Forest "fan".
When I said I couldn't comment on him, I meant it in that I don't know how connected he might be or how privy he is to stuff.

Dan Storey is a good writer and always comes across well on podcasts, etc but he doesn't really do much news reporting like Percy & Taylor x2.

One of the issues we have is that the loss that falls off for next year's 3 year assessment is a very small one from 20/21 (£3m-ish according to the IC report). So the bulk of our overspend from from this charge will still be present next year.
Regards amortisation, I did some very (very!) basic fag packet calcs and reckon we'd have added about £32m to our amortised transfer costs this season. Wage bill could be scary, Brentford were at £99m last season, it wouldn't surprise me if ours was a fair bit higher.

When was that vote though, as Leicester would have had their golden share until the end of June...

Infrastructure is, training ground, academy etc etc I'd not used in the calculations iirc.
PSR is purely first team, managers, transfers, wages. Unsure if it extends to analysts, kit etc.

At the AGM apparently (mid-June), which is when they swap the shares over to Promoted clubs.

Shouldn't matter too much.
We'll get £20m additional losses allowance (assuming we're still in the PL), so as as long as our net profit isn't less than -£20m then losing that year of small losses doesn't mean a great deal.
At this point it's probably worth pointing out that trying to work out what side of the line we are going to fall on is pretty much irrelevant unless we don't fix the wider strategic clusterfuck of signing tonnes of players on expensive contracts, lots of whom aren't very good. Or, in others words, being forced to be more streamlined might actually benefit us on the pitch. Our attrition is hampering our progress.

Why has it taken 14 more years for the PL to charge City than it has Forest, Everton or Leicester?

Can you let us know how much he has creamed off to date in your opinion?

I watched the Kieran Mcguire interview on Forest Fan TV. He states we'll have raise 30ish million before June. He also points out that everyone knows this so low offers will be the order of the day. The Premier league is such a rigged, depressing place

Then I genuinely hope we refuse those lowball offers. Again. f*** it. I don’t care anymore.

If the £30m is true then Forest should simply sell 3 year season tickets. That would raise about £30m.
Watched that too. Was disappointed no-one has asked him about the promotion bonuses which he has said all along were exempt from the PSR calculation.

I’d be interested in seeing definitive evidence this has always been the case actually.
