City & FFP | 2020/21 Accounts released | Revenues of £569.8m, £2.4m profit (p 2395)

It says that if we comply we will be free of restrictions. Have we complied? I know City believe we have, but we thought that last year too.
I'd still be suspicious of those cunts trying to fuck us over.
 
Official report about PSG's restrictions for this summer?

Even this Marcotti report is a bit strange, where is the Uefa report about it.

In the interests of transparency, it would be helpful if UEFA formally came out and stated the position of City and PSG with regards to lifted (or not) sanctions. Arguably, it doesn't technically need explanation, but it would be good practice for UEFA to do so.

I can see how there's a case that clubs and UEFA might not want the world to know, but that's just against all they claim to be standing for with regards to FFP.

I don't think UEFA want our position to be spelled out clearly.
Frankly , I am inclined to believe that whatever our commercial success in terms of passing FFP , the "powers that be" want a certain amount of water to remain muddied , so that the narrative of City cheating and lying and being financed out of the Sheik's pockets , can be perpetuated irrespective of the facts , which nobody reads or understands anyway.
They want a level of doubt and suspicion to remain, so that fingers can always be pointed.

Maybe Inter could find an easy way to comply... Get YaYa on the payroll.
 
fcuk UEFA, Platini and the gobshite Gill who have tried and ultimately failed to restrict our club.

Until UEFA actually implement FFP for what it should be targeting (i.e. clubs living on massive debt) like Madrid, and that scum club over at old toilet then it will remain a laughing stock. But that will never happen to the cartel mafia

Soriano has done a great job and we on course to becoming self sufficient - FCUK YOU UEFA

For those (like me) who don't want to click the link, and give 0.0001p to the MEN.

Manchester City fans have long wondered whether UEFA’s financial fair play rules are, in any way, fair.

And seeing the latest round of punishments handed out to ten clubs who broke the rules, they might wonder if the European governing body is simply taking the mickey.

City were punished heavily last season after they exceeded the limits imposed on their losses for 2011-12 and 2012-13.

The Blues were hit with a £49m fine, a £49m cap on transfer spending, and a reduction in their Champions League squad size from 25 to 21.

Manuel Pellegrini has referred to the punishment as a factor in City’s poor season, as they were blown out of the water in the transfer market by Chelsea and United.

But the latest round of punishments will fuel the sense of injustice surrounding the whole FFP circus, which has clearly been engineered to preserve the status quo in terms of European power, rather than force clubs into better practices.

Inter, who last summer took out a whopping £165million loan to pay off their existing debts, have been hit hardest in the latest round – they have, like City, had their squad for European competition reduced to 21.

The only problem is that Inter have not qualified for European competition next season, and the squad numbers will rise to 22 the following season, and be back to the normal 25 the season after.

In other words, that “punishment” is unlikely to affect them at all. It is akin to banning a blind man from driving – utterly pointless.

And then there is their fine. Inter have been given a £14m penalty, and they will get £10m of that back if they comply with FFP in the next two seasons.

The fines handed out to Monaco (£9m), Roma (£4.5m), Besiktas (£4m) Lokomotiv Moscow (£3.5m), Krasnodar (£3m) ad Sporting Lisbon (£1.4m) are trifling.

Uefa say the level of fine depends on the scale of the breach – in others words, City’s losses were much higher than the losses of this year’s guilty clubs. They say they cannot discuss the figures involved due to confidentiality.

But it totally ignores the size and direction of debt – City demonstrated last year that their debt had been massively cut and they were heading for profit, which they expect to achieve this year.

Inter are still in enormous debt, as are Manchester United, and yet that is ignored.

The good news for City is that they are expected to have their sanctions lifted for next season after cutting their losses to £23million last year, keeping them within the limits – although neither the club nor Uefa has confirmed that as yet.

The stagnation manifesto of Twattini and Uefa is beginning to make them look like the morons they truly are. Our ship has sailed but how are the likes of Everton or Aston Villa every going to make progress if they can't attract a sugar daddy.

Dicks.

Once they realise they didn't stop us, expect the rules to 'relax' somewhat, if they haven't already.

That's the problem though Pam......l for one (and I would say majority of fellow Blues) could not careless if say for example Everton or Villa were bought out by a rich businessman etc and they ran it similar to how our great owners are doing. It would bring healthy competition and increase interest in the premier league even more so.

But oh wait a minute... the cartel members of united, arsenal and Liverpool would throw their toys out the pram and lobby UEFA to the max calling how unfair and unjust it all is against them, and how it ain't fair that they could spend money !!

Corrupt the lot of them
 
They can't avoid karma and there is a huge swirling cloud of it out there waiting to envelope these corrupt bastards until they choke and fucking die!

Up yours Platini, UEFA, United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Bayern, the cartel, Gill, Wenger, FSG, Hoeneß(tax dodger), Beckenbauer, and Rummenigge, etc.
 
Let's put the blame where it is - ir on the cartel not UEFA, uefa would not exist as it does if they hadn't gone with the G14 so I don't blame them that much, ripping the game in two and losing the 14 biggest clubs into a U.S. Style super league would have been crap - no aguero moment , no sick swan etc. the cartel are reprehensible though and don't understand what sport or support is about they are like 3rd world dictators of tin pot regimes trying to crush opposition!

As for UEFA I suspect the reason they are bing vague is that they actually let off PSG and City a lot but the public narrative has to be of punishment and severity. They don't want to advertise letting is off now or they will have Milan, Liverpool, arsenal , bayern etc getting all antsy and putting pressure on. The fact is teams like Barcelona and real are quite quiet on this with their links to Qatar and uae and with powerful clubs like psg, city, now inter falling foul they have enemies of FFP as well. For them the best bet is for our lifting of sanctions to become as clear as possible as late as possible so that the cartel and their press backers don't get time to make a fuss.

I suspect it sanctions were as lenient as they could possibly manage and will be lifted as quickly as they can be, in return we have to let yet publicly portray them as very very harsh and we have to appear very indignant. In return we don't rock the boat. I suspect at least half the cartel have already welcomed us in already!
 
Man City opinion: Blues got clobbered by FFP while others get off lightly in Uefa crackdown

If they can credibly morph the rules into a different set of obstacles specifically targeting us, then I expect they will try to do so.

The problem they face is how to do that credibly and at the same time not bite the clubs who are behind this corrupt bunch of bastards. Fines for teams with light blue colours might be a bit too obvious, fortunately.
