I read today rags are taking out a £140 million loan to finance their summer spending plans. Think the loan was being provided by some holding company or other - owned by the Glazers I would imagine ?
Thought you could “only spend what you earn” ?

Their spending for ffp purposes will be the interest on the loan. The loan amount will appear on the balance sheet and increase their indebtedness, which, as we all know, is fine by UEFA.
If they buy a player with the money, the transfer fee will appear as spending but amortised over the contract period. A £100m player who signs a 5 year contract will go down on the P&L as £ 20m spent, plus his wages etc.

I have visions of the press conference after we (hopefully) win our case and have the ban quashed. The media who have slagged us off are all there. Delaney, Harris x 2, Syed, Glendenning, Conn, Corbett, etc.

Khaldoon walks in, wearing his sunglasses, stands there silent for a moment while he looks into the eyes of the hacks. He then slowly removes his glasses and says quietly "We told you. We fucking told you we were innocent you ****s. Yet you didn't believe us and called us grubby, cheats, liars and things. You insulted our honour and integrity. Now you'll pay the price. Goodbye."

He then walks out, the doors are locked and the hacks wonder what's going on. Just then, a partition at the back of the room opens and there's a cage of snarling wild carnivores in them. Lions, tigers and wild dogs that haven't been fed for days. There's a click and the gate that separates the hacks from these ravenous wild beasts slowly opens....

Well, a man can dream can't he?

If only Carlsberg did Press Conferences.
 
I just meant you saying “it sounds like we won’t be banned” was a bit of a stretch at this stage. No-one knows yet how this will play out.
Always positive Ric, getting through a cancer illness for 5 years only to be I'll again but with the best people around me just like we have at City then yes I am stretching but100% believe we will come out smiling but like other posters on here the finger will always be pointed therefore we have to take them down imo
Reading PB, Tolm & some top posters on here I do feel good going into the CAS meeting but I just wish our PR would for once tell those horrible shit stirring barstewards to go fuck themselves once in a while, we are to soft with these bastards, you wait a couple of days before we play & during each next game the shit will spread & that's why we need to go full tilt,I would just love to see the smile wiped off those click bait lazy journalists who haven't got a fucking clue.
Something must be going on as to quite for me so far, normally the shit stirring would be in full tilt prior to this CAS meeting have they been warned off????

Apparently it’s ok, Arsene fucking wenger has sanctioned the loan
