It's Quiet thread 14 - 'do one' edition

Not sure where you’re getting this from mate, but I’d be amazed if you’re right on this - particularly in light of the $500m investment from Silver Lake we secured at the back

CFG related although City is entitled to a cut

Exactly, and they will be expecting a dividend, it was not a gift as some people might think.

Others have mentioned that matchday revenue is not inconsiderable but TV deals have also been hit. the PL clubs have had to refund a large amount to the TV companies and we've been one of the worst hit as we had one of the highest TV incomes.

Overall this is going to hit our bottom line by a significant amount. And despite what some sections of the media (and fans of other clubs) would have you believe, it's not a case of HH dipping his hand into his pocket to bail us out - we still have to try and break even like everyone else.

Good chance the financial ramifications of covid kills FFP. Football won’t give a shit where money comes from as long as money is splashed around the game

£55million 2018-2019 season. Fairly consistent over the previous 4 seasons.

Some people think that city for some reason are not financially exposed to the pandemic.
I think we were 4th ,5th in matchday revenue.

I wonder if last night's victory has changed the minds of our board re any more signings?. Maybe they feel Stones will be sufficient back up at centre half?

More likely to affect sales activity, I’d say.

City's matchday revenue is only just over 10% of total income, Arsenal for comparison are around the 25% of total income. Owners can also make up the lost revenue, I doubt SM will have a problem doing that.

Does anyone think Pep will get his fourth signing? we got 2 weeks left, looks like Kounde could be done this week maybe , gives us a week for a fourth.

 

[razman]

Well Messi's buddy is leaving.. So he really will be left alone from that famous MSN trio

 

[MeatHunterrr]

May be we need a CB but not That EXPENSIVE one. May be thats why we are after kounde.

But Koundé would be expensive as fuck.

EDIT- Stones has been here 4 years anyway and has not proved himself to be trusted option. We really can't piss around with this anymore. Stones can be 4th choice max.

You mean unexpectedly resigning, or something planned/agreed?
