PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Boehly just testing the water before the big move, his company buying Stamford Bridge.will be certainly lot more than the hotels or the ladies team.
 
They're incapable of running a business organically, and will hit a wall at some point.

I'd be very concerned if the club I supported was making such short-term decisions to get through the back door of PSR.

One look at their financial statements is all you need to see that this was a last ditch attempt to get them over the line; what happens next time?
i'd guess their hoping rules will be in bin very shortly
that big bad city made them unenforceable
 
Chelsea are NOT circumventing any rules because the Premier League do not have any rules to prevent this. The PL wanted to introduce a rule to prevent it but it only 11 clubs voted for it (needing 14) and 9 against.
From Stefan's twitter:


Clear evidence, as if more was needed, that the PL isn’t fit to look after itself or run the professional top level game properly.

PSR is a cumulative calc. and they now have a healthy profit in the books. Farce. The PL commission isn't going to make a comparison to Chelsea but it undermines the disciplinary process imo.
 
On what planet is it worth more than they paid?

Can't see anything on or off the pitch to suggest it's growing in the right direction.

No champions league football this season would batter them financially.
They definitely need to qualify for next season's champions league and they've the chance of winning the Club World Cup this summer. The 2 combined could be a c£200mil boost to their revenues and a major step in the right direction with what is still a very young squad.
 
I’m hearing we’re not far off from learning the outcome to the 130 charges City have faced. The smart money has got to be on a fudge. Why do I say that? Well - a number of reasons really.

A big clue is Sky telling their pundits to go easy with their thoughts about the judgement. If City were going to get nailed I’m sure they’d be allowed to say what they like but I reckon their anger is going to have to be tempered.

Just as the British govt got deeply involved in the decision to allow the Saudi’s to take over at Newcastle, it’s a certainty they’ll have had something to do with the outcome in this case.

Boris Johnson didn’t want to piss MBS off - and Starmer can’t afford to fall out with the Emeratis. I might be wrong, but I don’t think so.

Hairy hands nonce from his blog.

I don't want to link it to save giving him money.
 
just over 1 hour to go before potentially the biggest comedy announcement of the season... tick tock... (BTW I'm not an ITK or indeed have any clue, just saying in case of Burton comparisons...)
 
Didn't chelsea cost £100 million less to cover the fine there gonna get for flagging up the corruption for the Russian gangsters misdemeanours??

Maybe they’ve found some new hotels they can sell to themselves?
