Someone explain what's happened to me like I'm five
The PL changed their rules as a result of City's action so that shareholder loans are now subject to Fair Market Value tests.So interest free shareholder loans are still allowed?
Surprised he didn't utter 115 between every word he spoke."Despite some reports suggesting that City have been given assurances that the deal will be approved, BBC Sport has been told that it would still be subjected to a fair market value assessment by the Premier League board."
Dan Roan desperate to show that City didn't 'win'.
the bbc sport do not have and have never had any sources and dan roan is on the same tier with goldbridge and the youtube twats when it comes to credibility."Despite some reports suggesting that City have been given assurances that the deal will be approved, BBC Sport has been told that it would still be subjected to a fair market value assessment by the Premier League board."

you know the rules....Batman body slammed the Joker and then banged Elsa
fmv as a concept will still never work because and this is the key to basic economics, no outside body can set the market value of anything, the market sets the value itself thats just how economics works, the value of something is what someone is prepared to pay for it and that will always hold true.The PL changed their rules as a result of City's action so that shareholder loans are now subject to Fair Market Value tests.
you know the rules too....You mean Harley Quinn?
It’s not me I’m worried about mate ;)We could have £2 billion to spend but we still won’t buy a right-back so I wouldn’t go getting your hopes up mate ;)

Nobody is suggesting City lied. Read the actual words - usually carefully chosen. So if one party says something definitively it is usually true. But City have spoken in vague “expectations” and “confident now that going forward”. Somethings are PR fluff and somethings are press briefings.But by the same token, presumably it will be the City team briefing Lawton and Keegan. It's a little disingenuous to take the PL briefing as fact while dismissing the City briefings. I would also suggest the Roan briefing was a defensive response to the narrative developing that Etihad was cleared.
Anyway, we all know how to brief with the best possible interpretation even if, given the PL's previous history of talking complete bullshit in their briefings, personally I lean more to City's side of the story.
So what we are looking for is a situation where both briefings are true without being complete. What about this? Yes, City have to re-submit Etihad, but the PL have agreed to push it through or, at the very least, have agreed small amendments with City that will allow the PL to push it through.
Clearly, imho, City got out of APT2 what it wanted otherwise what was the incentive to settle rather than to proceed? As you have mentioned yourself many times, it was a no-risk, free hit for City.
City fan mate, 117 season ticket holder. It was a joke because every club believes their club is refereed differently There isn't a single fan who doesn't think that way. I don't believe we are. Yeah there could be decisions that go against you but we aren't at a disadvantage. It felt that way in the earlier years of Pep, wouldn't say so now.Are you a Man U or Liverpool fan? Own up.
I think we should have a broad range of fans from other clubs on here.
Thank you for confirming my point. As football fans we are guilty of a selective memory. That decision was a shocker and we could list examples all day. Just like me the year after, getting a very soft pen at united at 0-0. For holding at a set piece which is rarely given and the irony being we are all complaining for the pen they got at Fulham. Neither were pens to be fair but we remember the ones that go against us don't we.Attwell and Oliver (on VAR) cheating in the derby by allowing Rashford's blatant offside makes it hard to believe it's not true.
Perhaps you were too busy celebrating the goal to notice at the time?
Now, that's another matter. I don't believe as much these days that they are favoured but we all probably feel they have been during other years. Going back to the original point, I was laughing at a football fan feeling hard done to by a referee. You will see that post on every single forum, even the same with Liverpool and United who we will say get special treatment.Compare penalties awarded for & against the Rags in the last 50 years.
Eh?It was a joke because every club believes their club is refereed differently There isn't a single fan who doesn't think that way. I don't believe we are.
Every supporter of any club feels referees are against them. I don't believe refs are against us. Hope that helps
It doesn’t, no. Unless you’re not a supporter of any club.Every supporter of any club feels referees are against them. I don't believe refs are against us. Hope that helps
Not sure what more I can do then. I support City, I do not believe we are hard done to by refs (anymore)It doesn’t, no. Unless you’re not a supporter of any club.
