So what's the difference here between these and PSG or Citeh. All broke the rules, but the lesser of the 3 clubs get a ban. Need to treat these the same. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/27741460 Red Star Belgrade suffer UEFA Champions League ban Red Star Belgrade have been banned from next season's Champions League for failing to pay their debts. The Serbian champions were "in breach of a number of provisions of the Uefa Club Licensing and Financial Fair Play regulations," Uefa said in a statement. The club was told in April "of the existence of overdue payables as a result of a complaint," added Uefa. What is financial fair play? ⢠The Club Financial Control Body (CFCB) was set up in June 2012 to oversee the application of the Uefa Club Licensing System and Financial Fair Play Regulations ⢠Clubs cannot repeatedly spend more than their generated revenues, and clubs will be obliged to meet all their transfer and employee payment commitments at all times ⢠Higher-risk clubs that fail certain indicators will also be required to provide budgets detailing their strategic plans ⢠Teams participating in Uefa club competitions have had their transfer and employee payables monitored since the summer of 2011. The break-even assessment covering the financial years ending 2012 and 2013 will be assessed during 2013-14 Read more at Uefa.com The 1991 European Cup winners have 10 days to appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Clubs must show they have paid player salaries, transfer fees, and social taxes before being granted a license to enter Uefa competitions. Red Star, also known as Crvena Zvezda, were due to make their first appearance in Europe's top competition for seven years in the second qualifying round. League runner-up Partizan, Red Star's city rival, stand to get the Champions League berth. Serbia's football association also faces Uefa sanctions for granting Red Star its license. UEFA's licensing system pre-dates the Financial Fair Play rules but has been given a higher profile as a weapon to curb clubs who overspend and avoid paying debts.
i would think its as city and psg dont have debts that they cant pay and have just spent more than their revenue coming in but they have suger daddys to balance the books
****ing joke that mate, probably couldnt afford a whopping fine so banned them instead, whereas city psg etc couldnt give a ****, £50m is nowt to them its like you or i losing a £5, its approx 1 years interest on £1bn The whole thing stinks of the lining of pockets
I know that man, but it's all a ****ing joke....daft ****s from abroad telling english clubs what to do.. ****ing europeans dictating in every aspect of british society.....****s. straight cucumbers for president of the world.

Arsenal tbf are a very well run club. Could be used as a model in which to run a club? Although their ticket prices are ****.
