Villa and Newcastle having to sell their best players this summer.

Those financial rules really starting to pay off...

[Kieran Maguire @KieranMaguire]

The current cost control rules in football were not designed to create sustainability (as substantial owner subsidised losses are still allowed) but to prevent 'another' Chelsea or Manchester City upsetting the status quo.

In the season before Abramovich, Chelsea had the joint 5th highest wage bill. The following season it was the highest with average wages going from £21k to £54k a week (and this was in 2003/04)

In the case of Manchester City they went from 5th to 2nd after the Mansour takeover, and were top by 2011/12. Wages going from average of £38k a week to £94k a week during this period.

I've never met a Chelsea or City fan who has tried to deny the impact of the new owners has given the clubs a competitive budget.

So can understand why those Newcastle and Villa fans feel their clubs are on the wrong side of history

@PetePhilipson @RogerSpag1978 @CWeatherspoon_ @TheAthleticFC There’s no point arguing with them Pete, it benefits their club so they don’t see an issue.

@NUFCbible No with Jaissle. Can see your point on Howe after last summers signings.

[JB @Del_Monte20]

Villa, Newcastle, Forest and Palace all recent stints in Europe.

Sales this summer of Rogers, Tielemans, Tonali, Bruno, Anderson and Lacroix.

Buying clubs Chelsea, United, City, Arsenal and Spurs (SKY 6)

The prem is a fix. The above all in a group who agreed to join a super league. One awaiting 100s of charges another a small fine for paying off agents.

Other clubs making up the numbers.

I have genuine sympathy for Newcastle fans given the decimation of their squad over the course of this transfer window so far.

I’ve recorded this video to try and explain why they feel like the Premier League is now a closed shop:

What happened in Belfast was what Lucy Connolly called for in Southport.

She was, quite rightly jailed.

Only for Reform to give her a heroes welcome at their conference, which normalised and applauded racial incitement.

Now look at where we are.

It’ll be lynchings next.
