If I was the owner of a club that had paid honest interest on its loans over the years, I'd be looking carefully at any transactions influenced by a requirement to keep within the unlawful rules and the effect that may have had on our league position. Then I'd be considering legal action against the PL.
when hughes was sacked it was well reported that City were looking to bring mancini in as he was already working for ADUG in a consultancy role therefore already under contract to them
completely separate to any contract City would offer him when he became City manager
the '2 contracts' stuff is nonsense
No. There's nothing in the accounts (although those are apparently a pack of lies anyway).Haven't City got a loan ?

CFG took a loan iirc but they're a separate legal entity to City.Did the CFC take a loan ? In the back of my mind I seem to remember something. But I can't even remember what I had for breakfast somedays

Just checked and there's a c£500m loan on CFG's books, on which we pay commercial rates of interest. I suspect that's to finance the NYCFC stadium.I see, thanks
I'm not young, just couldn't stand Star Wars, Star Trek on the other hand......You must be very young if you had to look that up?
Anyway, what's this Episode IV bullshit? It was just Star Wars when I watched Alec Guinness in it in 1977 :P
He seems to have had a relationship with Khaldoon (not in a sexual way) prior to signing for us, but I've never seen anything to suggest he had a contractual relationship. Thr Al Jazira contract was dated the same day he became our manager.I’ve seen this a few times but I’ve never seen any report that said he was already in a consultancy role already aside from on here.
The issue with the Mancini contract to me is it looks like we were negotiating and paying the Al Jazira element of it too, if the leaks are to be believed.

Yes, I saw an interview with him where he said he’d met Khaldoon a couple of times before signing with us.
I suppose we are putting two and two together and making four or five with the rumours of a pre-dated AJ contract that we haven't seen but, at the end of the day, there are plenty of ways to justify the club being involved in the AJ negotiations and even paying some of the amounts. And even if the club can't justify it the rules at the time didn't require disclosure and it's not in any way (on its own) material.
Was I the one who started us off on Mancini again? Apologies if so :)
This Mancini thingy I get confused over. I read sometimes that even if City did pay him they was nothing in place at that time to say it was wrong.
I am right ?
Partly. Rules were subsequently put in place that clubs needed to declare all income paid to players and managers. But these weren't in place when Mancini was at City, so we couldn't and haven't been charged under those rules.This Mancini thingy I get confused over.

Arse's 49 game unbeaten run should stretch to 50 at least, if I have my facts right.Very good and with all these compensation nonsense, how far back do we go. Can Newcastle and others seek compensation for the Rags “Mike Riley” title winning period where they effectively were given titles.
It’s not even december yet ffsMay the force be with us all!
He’ll come back only if we bring mancini backBilly Shears is back?
