do you know which period they are being charged with?

which years are they being accused of breaking the rules?

you need to factor that into your argument.

The only real reason ffp etc came in was because the established "elite" teams didn't like the new competition

"only"? you know that the prem shares TV money equitably (unlike for example in spain).

wild distortions are not good for the health of the league.

a salary cap (of any kind) is bad for "elite clubs" but ...
