Speaking on the launch of the FFP Masterclass, Nick Craig said: “The new financial regulations are already beginning to form a crucial part of the domestic and European football landscape. With this in mind, all involved in the game must understand the rules and how to adapt to the changes. The iSportconnect Masterclass is the perfect event to promote and enhance understanding of these new regulations.”

iSportconnect Chairman Michael Cunnah added: “I am very pleased to announce the FFP Masterclass which, I believe, will be of real value to everyone concerned. FFP is the biggest structural change that football administrators have faced since the Bosman ruling came into force. As everyone works out the impact of these regulations and to what extent they will be enforced, Football Executives must be spending every waking hour thinking about, and planning for, these new regulations. They are that important.”
