I went to school at Tad with Aiden. He'll be 64 now and there is no way on earth he would be posting rumours on any site. Last time I saw him he was watching us at ER in the West Stand and working as a rep for a football boot manufacturer. Injury caused him to quit football too early.

PSR rules don’t work like this. The money raised from shareholders doesn’t add to our PSR pot. PSR is related to our profit or loss in the Profit &Loss Account. Money raised from shareholders has no impact on this figure.

Spurs' debt is irrelevant to the new SCR rules. All that matters is their revenue (sales income) . This will be in the region of £550-£600m. The rules allow them to spend up to 85% of this on player costs & manager salary (they are at the 85% level, as they're not in UEFA competition next year) without any penalty.
That means spending of between £468m and £510m on player and manager costs. Compare that to Leeds, who will have between £200 to £250m revenue, so will have between £170m and £213m to spend on player and manager costs. That's how the rules work. Don't shoot the messenger.

Some inaccuracies Alf. I believe it's the profit on sale of a player that is included in the turnover figure. This will often be significantly less than the sale proceeds and could even be a negative figure if there is a loss on sale.
Both systems PSR and SCR are based on information in the financial statements, that one focuses on losses and the other on revenues makes little difference. It would stop clubs like Chelsea fudging things by selling their ladies' team (possibly) .
Finally, both systems favour clubs that are financially more successful as they are both based on the P&L so in that sense any system will favour the bigger clubs who in general are financially stronger. If there were exemptions for clubs like ours for say the first two years after promotion (to either set of rules) then that's something that would make a major difference but don't hold your breath.
