Is the Cunha sale included in these calcs? TY

Clubs can always sell themselves their women’s teams to comply 👍🏻

Only if they were foresighted enough to invest properly in them. Some clubs haven't bothered. Some won the WSL a time or two but let it slide. Credit is due to Abramovich for listening to Hayes and taking women's football seriously.

Selling to yourself is not really the same, is it? Like the hotels.

True. But Chelsea FC can't now book the annual profits from the hotels in the accounts. Swings & roundabouts.
Spurs cash still book the period from their NFL games and gigs.

PL clubs have agreed to allow it. Chelsea may still have trouble meeting the UEFA limits, which don't.

It’s a strange, & stinky world, football finance. But, if banning Palace is an answer, I’m not sure we’re asking the right questions in the first place. Maybe just ban multiclub ownership, & cut out the issue.

Moving companies from one holding company to another is fairly standard in business.

Agree on multi-club models, and I'll be gutted for Palace and their fans if they are denied a Europe spot. At least swap them with Forest so they can enter one competition.
