borobadger Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I finally got my AFC Telford team to the champions league, and while we were "on course to pass financial fair play regulations" I was denied a license for it and will miss out. What am I mean to do? The only way I can increase revenue is play CL football, without it we will just sink further and further into the red Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 If you're already losing money as a top 4 Premier League club then you are clearly spending far too much. In the shot term you need to decrease your expenditure through lower value contracts & probably putting a freeze on any new signings, maybe even raise money by selling some of your better players. If that means you have to sell them at a lower than desired price & leave you weaker (on paper) then that's they way it has to be. How much over the allowed loss were you?

borobadger Posted March 30, 2016 Author Share Posted March 30, 2016 This is the first season as a top 4 club and our stadium only holds 12,500, which I think is a primary reason for low funds as we can't afford a new one. I'm apparently on course to pass Champions League regulations so I have no idea how far over I am Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrlee.1986 Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 This is the first season as a top 4 club and our stadium only holds 12,500 I could be wrong but isn't there stadium requirements for champs league? Do you meet them? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 That's wouldn't matter, matches would be moved to an appropriate sized ground. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
borobadger Posted March 30, 2016 Author Share Posted March 30, 2016 It's a bit frustrating because I got the message just as the season ended, it didn't give me any time to sell players in order to meet the requirements Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Pity you don't have any saves in the final stages of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
borobadger Posted March 30, 2016 Author Share Posted March 30, 2016 Feel like that would be cheating a bit though, it just would have been nice to get a message saying the club are expected to fail CL regulations unless we make X amount of money Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 That wasn't to advocate replaying history, it was so you could raise it with SI to investigate how you went from projections that all is okay to failing, it could be that your board's accounts team are idiots for not spotting the of failing FFP but it could also be a previously unknown bug.
