Well I suppose everyone has a different concept of fairness and you'll never please everyone no matter what you do.
My idea of fairness is to reward as many people who stuck by us in the CL when many others walked away. Reward everyone who said "yes City, you can take money from my bank account no matter what you charge because I want to be at every CL game and the final when we get there". The people who went to home games against Shakhtar when already through. The people who got Russian visas to watch us in Moscow. Those people deserve priority.
