Snowflake RoyalPieEater How is one club going to buy up all the talent to keep players from other clubs AND comply with the FFP rules?
How did Birmingham spend more than the entire rest of L1 in transfer fees and comply?
L1 rules allow for owner funding to count towards their SCMP limits (they've been made somewhat more stringent this season) of 60% of turnover being allowed to be spent on squad costs.
Effectively the rules are made redundant at this level should you have an owner who put funding into a club - arguably certain Championship clubs getting relegated would allow them to spend more money on their squad in League One (for a season) than they could in the Championship.
