[QUOTE="mhnessie, post: 536264, member: 4324"] It may sounds strange but to me it hasnt anything to do with Financial Fair Play Bundesbiers. What can we do, is it really unfair ? They are making lots of money because they had the best management for at least 3 decades in German football and therefore are the most successful German team. Somehow well deserved and as a HSV fan its not easy to admit this fact as we were at eye level with them in the 70's and 80's and then lost track because of bad management. A discussion about Financial Fairplay makes sense if they would be heavily indebted and still do transfers like Lewandowski while other teams wouldnt do that just to stay financially healthy. This is what UEFA and FIFA are frequently discussing and one of the worst examples is Real Madrid. 590m Euros in debt but still doing transfers like Bale for 120m Euros. Thats where we should have a discussion about Financial Fairplay. German Bundesliga is doing some things as a solidary group to avoid a two class society. Just think of how TV money is distributed in Germany. If every team would sell TV rights by their own it would be even worse because who cares about Freiburg, Braunschweig or Hoffenheim. They would barely get done a TV deal. I know, thats not enough but at least they are all aware of the problem. At the moment there are only two ways to close the gap - a) you need to qualify for a European Cup and if you want to make real good money it has to be the Champions League and b) check and change structures of German professional football clubs. As most of us are against selling teams to owners (me too !) we have to find a way to bring in strategic partners without selling our tradition and hearts to profit orientied owners. And who has done this first, 10 years ago ? Yes, Bayern again and its time to think about doing the same. BTW - though there are many things I dont like in Amercian Professional sports - the Salary Cap and Draft System are excellent tools to guarantee competetive teams and exciting championships. But very unlikely that this could be introduced in our football system. Ooops, sorry for being lenghty.... ;) [/QUOTE]
