Sorry I'm not too clued up on whats going on PSG except they're rich as hell and they seem to have spent even more than us in recent times. But it also appears that theyre going to continue spending left right and centre. All due to some 'Investment' which by all accounts is legit.

So whats the deal how come they can do this and whats the difference with us?

Or did Platini say its ok for French clubs?

They are in the exact same situation as us, they just chose to ignore FFP and think they'll get away with it. Time will tell.

The more the merrier I say. I havent seen anyone on here saying its a good idea to stop fresh money coming into the game, do the players and agents take too much of it out? Thats another issue...

BORROWING money to buy a club...now thats the real problem...right malc?

Oh I dont mind how much a club spends us or whoever. Just think its strange that a club in a second rate league (imo) who havent done much in europe in recent years are blatantly throwing money about, like we did, but dont seem to be trying to convince Platini and his cronies that theyre aiming to play along with their rules. Very odd.

So PSG right..

I now have an unshakable image of Griff Rhys Jones in my head, damn...

Perhaps in France they're getting the same shit we are, although I don't think the French press are peopled with the same type of degenerate that our press is. Nor are the French wracked with resentment, generally. Anyway, Platini's son has some involvement at PSG (I think he's a big shot with a company that sponsor them) so I'm sure daddy will tip him the wink.
