Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window

Man City's £50m fine - surely Sheik whatsisname will just write a cheque? The teams most likely to be affected by the FFP rules are those with deep pockets. I thought sanctions were supposed to include points deductions etc? Restricting the squad size is a good start seeing as CL teams need to have at least 8 locally-trained players but point deductions would surely be a bigger deterrent?

Decent move why not. There will probably be claims and doubts that players will take advantage of this but if she can be firm and aggressive as a coach this could be the start of proper equality in managerial vacancies having only just got certain rules in place for non-white managers.
As with the case of the female referee's assistant who Andy Grey and Richard Keyes slagged off, I couldn't care which gender anyone is as long as they do a good job and being female has zero bearing on it IMO. Football still has a male-dominated attitude to women in the game are likely to get some resistance/abuse so as long as that gets dealt with I say bring them on
