Middlesbrough post £30m loss

[Undercoverinwurzelland]

Middlesbrough are the latest club to post a massive loss - £30m this year on top of £35m last year. They did make a £2m profit the year before, which helps a bit with the 3 years FFP period.

Isn't it a max allowable loss of £39m over the three year period ? In which case they are way over and in trouble.

Why doesn’t every club post losses next season and everyone starts on -6

That's far too sensible, and would take all the fun out of it.
It's clear that no-one takes any notice of the FFP rules, so why not just abandon them?

It’s a complicated calculation and there are various allowances - including an allowance for disruption to income from COVID to take into account.

However they appear to be another club that are on the brink of a points deduction MUST cut their losses next season .

Theses quite a few in that bracket..

Boro
Stoke
Birmingham
Bristol C

etc…
