#htfc — Public Fediverse posts

Eleven players were signed by the Premier League's "Big Six" clubs from "other 14" clubs this summer — not just Isak, but Norgaard, Eze, Joao Pedro, Enciso, Kerkez, Trafford, Ait-Nouri, Cunha, Mbeumo, Kudus.

Between 2015/16 and 2021/22, such deals had slowed to a trickle. In 2017/18 there were just two: Riyad Mahrez (#LCFC to #MCFC) and a 38-year-old Rob Green (#HTFC to #CFC).

What's changed? Some will immediately scream "PSR!"

But that's a little too easy and convenient an explanation because
a) financial regulation was introduced in 2013
b) (this surprised me) the "Big Six" have contributed a far smaller share of Premier League spending in recent years than they did in the pre/early-PSR period.

(And if, like me, you're inclined to view it as a "Big Six Plus One" (#NUFC) now, then yes you lose the sale of Isak from that list of 11, but you also add the signings of Elanga, Wissa and Ramsey.)

PSR has certainly been a factor in
a) reinforcing the established order — bad
b) leading clubs to pursue more sensible, sustainable business models — good
but there are bigger factors, which relate to the concentration of wealth and talent in the Premier League — undeniably good for the Premier League, undeniably bad for football further afield

De Bruyne is back. Good news for City, not for the rest #mcfc #htfc https://telegraph.co.uk/football/2024/…

Manuel Akanji has tried to play on but is coming off after a heavy challenge from the Huddersfield midfielder Alex Matos, for which he was booked, moments after the same player caught Rico Lewis in the head with a flailing elbow #mcfc #htfc

It’s not very often someone sends me a football programme in the post! Auntie Maureen sponsored a match for her recent 90th birthday. So the match programme has her on the front cover. Inside a 3-page article tells the story of her 80 years supporting Huddersfield Town. #HuddersfieldTown #huddersfield #HTFC #TheTerriers #football #yorkshire #familyhistory #genealogy #westyorkshire #MaureenProcter
