FFP is a turd , the so-called sanctions are a turd and there is pratini trying to polish it and only succeeding in getting shit on his hands.CaliforniaBlue said:gh_mcfc said:Platini told Sky Sports News: "The people at Manchester City are not happy, the people of PSG, they are not happy, but I think Manchester United, Everton, they are happy.

"My wish is not to kill the clubs. We have fair play to help the clubs have better governance. I'm not the person who decides... but I think it would be a big mistake if we banned the clubs because financial fair play is to help them - not to kill them."
Thank you Platini your help is so much appreciated . If it wasn`t for you (and Joey Barton) we`d be really in trouble now. The 16 million fine has really provided us with a huge amount of help and support. I am not sure we would have signed a single sponsorship deal in the past 6 years if it wasn`t for you. How would we have go on without you ensuring we have better governance.
Btw Fck you deluded money grabbing cock
Platini and his crew constantly going on about how tough they've been and how unhappy City and PSG are sounds to me like they're trying to convince the G14 that they've really punished us. If they had really punished us to the satisfaction of all concerned, why would they need to keep saying it?
Call me a 'glass half full' guy if you like, but, annoying as they are, the 'punishments' are no more than a slap on the wrist dressed up as a punch in the face to placate Wenger et al (especially if the CL squad really is 17 + 5, which is perhaps why UEFA seem to be avoiding clarifying the issue).

Personally I think its unprofessional of him to be mentioning names when talking to to the press

You are of course right, it shows he is not impartial, but then again it just proves that there is an agenda fuelled by certain clubs who have so much to lose, however I also happen to beleive that the berk is far worse than the bite

It seems clear from the club's press release and Khaldoon's position that the club are now putting it behind them too. As long as UEFA stand by the sanctions that City grudgingly accepted then we are as free from any future restriction as any club.
The next phase for the club is the move to profitability and I suspect that those profits may well set a new benchmark because City are doing things never done before in football.
Having a football group provides sponsors with a unique branding/sponsorship opportunity and of course the numbers will reflect that.
United claim 659m fans world wide but City Football Group will soon be able to claim much more than that. Most of united's sponsorship deals are localised, trading on mufc's success and history. CFG will be in the locality for every market as well as being a global success story and PL and CL anchors.
I've been talking for ages about City being the first club to generate $1bn in revenue and it might just happen in this decade.
FFP is a fast fading problem.
I think we have fired the warning shots across their bows , they understand the possible consequences now .adrianr said:fbloke said:FFP is, for me, quickly falling into the past concern category.

As long as goal posts won't be moved further in future, sure. What's to say UEFA don't turn around again after a huge City Group sponsorship deal adds 100m a year to our bottom line and say something like 'Oh we're going to split that evenly amongst the 3/4 clubs you own because you can't say it's all profit for City'. We can argue 'they can't do that' until we're blue in the face but if there's anything this little episode has taught us it's that until it's properly defeated in court, they really can do whatever the fuck they like.
Genuinely shocking unprofessionalism and lack of impartiality. UEFA is a joke of an organisation.hertsblue said:Platini told Sky Sports News: "The people at Manchester City are not happy, the people of PSG, they are not happy, but I think Manchester United, Everton, they are happy.

All that says to me is "some clubs will be upset, but some clubs will be happy - so we've decided to go ahead and make certain clubs happy and certain clubs upset" instead of leaving it as it was and not upsetting anybody.Ducado said:hertsblue said:Platini told Sky Sports News: "The people at Manchester City are not happy, the people of PSG, they are not happy, but I think Manchester United, Everton, they are happy.
