The Premier League serves six clubs
The Issue
The EPL exists to feather the nests of six clubs only. These six clubs have introduced rules to prevent any clubs from challenging their place at the trough. These are the same six clubs who resigned from the EPL when they thought there was room at a bigger trough. The PSR rule is simply about sustainability in the sense of sustaining their position and preventing any other club from investing in their squad to mount a challenge. These are the same six clubs who sell things they already own to themselves to adjust their balance sheet, who employ the best lawyers to prevent and delay any charges against them, who are millions in debt but change the rules to exclude their debt, who accept loans from shareholders that distort the balance sheet and award massively long contracts to players to adjust their debt balance sheet. This is the tip of the iceberg. This is what these six clubs will do to ensure teams getting promoted are almost certain to be relegated as they are unable to invest to compete. This is the most anticompetitive association in the world of sport. It needs to end. It needs to change.
