I'm very interested to see how, if at all, any players react to it. James could cover that in a week, Sterling would still have about twice the country's average salary to spare.

Very stupid and needless. They are considering letting Sarr go on a free. Why not put a price of £250k on him or just an additional £250k on any outgoing deal? Job done. Such an own goal to sour the good will they've earned this window. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My Blood Is Blue Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Apparently tomorrow is the day clubs find out if they are to be charged under the PL profitability and sustainability rules. Could this be the news that Poch hinted at finding out about before kick off yesterday? Are we getting a points deduction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomorrow is when all PL teams find out whether they are clean for the current reporting period. Nothing to do with announcements on penalties as far as I know. I reckon the"incident" before kick off was something to do with the players being asked to get involved with "Argylle" nonsense whilst trying to focus on the game. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonb Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 This might explain the rumours over selling Gallagher so we had the funds for a striker. Now we have some points we may decide to risk it with alternating Broja and Jackson and investing at the end of the season. Or post finance report-out then go and blow an amount on a new striker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thevelourfog Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I don't think we're in much trouble as far as P&S goes right now. The issue is much more about what happens when we still don't have CL income and need to spend more money but what remains of the yearly budget is all used up on the amortisation of last summer's splurge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read somewhere that last summers splurge was actually a net spend of £153m which although a lot of money it's well short of the much heralded £2b so it's probably more workable than we would have imagined.

Could well imagine that to be the case. The issue is that we go into every summer for the next 6 or 7 years with £153m (or whatever the actual amount is, no point any of us being too picky about it when we should all be able to agree that, one way or another, it is a lot) already "spent". We will be doing a lot more selling players we'd rather keep on a football basis than we've been used to for some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think so too, it looks very much like we will have to sell the home grown players to satisfy the idiots playing football managers profligate spending.

I be more concerned about ones coming back - Potentially Lewis Hall could come back, along with Lukaku and the other 1001 loans, and as shown in the Jan window, clubs are not spending huge money with the new PL penalties 😮 Edited February 2 by ROTG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Singleton Posted March 8 Author Share Posted March 8 https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2024/03/08/chelsea-drop-oman-air-sponsorship-deal-spending-rules/ Chelsea mysteriously drop Oman Air deal as club fight to meet spending rules Exclusive: Airline deal was thought to be worth £2 million-a-year deal but sources tell Telegraph Sport the partnership has been terminated Matt Law, Football News Correspondent 8 March 2024 • 5:20pm Chelsea have mysteriously terminated a sponsorship deal with Oman Air, as the club works to avoid breaching profit and sustainability rules. The deal for Oman Air to become Chelsea’s ‘airline partner’, thought to be worth £2 million-a-year, was proudly announced by the club at the start of July. But Oman Air no longer features on the ‘club partners’ section of the official website, where Chelsea’s other sponsors are listed and sources have told Telegraph Sport the deal has been terminated. That means Chelsea currently do not have first-team front-of-shirt, sleeve or airline sponsors confirmed for next season. Chelsea and Oman Air were both approached for comment and mystery surrounds why the sponsorship has been cut short just eight months into what was described as being ‘a multi-year deal’. Head coach Mauricio Pochettino posed with Oman Air officials for the announcement, which was confirmed by Chelsea chief executive Chris Jurasek and Oman Air chief executive AbdulAziz Al Raisi. Sources have suggested the problem over the deal arose on the Oman Air side, which forced Chelsea to agree to a termination, but neither party has commented or disclosed any details. While £2 million-a-year is a relatively small figure in Premier League terms, Chelsea need sponsorship deals to help them comply with profit and sustainability rules. The club announced a £90.1 million pre-tax loss in the 12-month period up to June 30, 2023. The club insist they can operate within the Premier League’s PSR and Uefa’s Financial Fair Play, despite doubts among rivals, who believe they need to raise at least £100 million in player sales by June 30. Other than losing the Oman Air sponsorship deal, Chelsea are searching for new sponsors for next season’s first-team shirts after starting this campaign without any. Infinite Athlete, who took the front-of-shirt sponsorship until the end of the campaign last October, will become the sleeve sponsors for the training kits next season. BingX, who were announced as first-team sleeve sponsors in January, will be the club’s training kit sponsor from next season.
