Re: City & FFP (continued)

Reported that Nasri is to take a basic pay cut of £40k with additional incentives.

That's great if true. It would put an end to mercenary taunts from gooners.

You've got more faith in gooners than I do then...

Besides has anyone ever given a monkeys what the gooners think?

Re: City & FFP (continued)

Nearly all the players are going on lower basic wages with bigger bonus incentives.

It was a model they used when running Barca.

So we are linked with Mangala,Barkley,Willy Callabero and Sanchez.

I would fucking love to sign all three of these,now I know it is doubtful but if we did how would we comply with FFP in the next set of accounts? No change out of what 100 plus million?

Even optimistically, I think it's certainly a case of Barkley or Sanchez and buying either would require us to sell a first team player (Yaya or Negredo?).

We've just made big investment in Nasri. Not seen much comment. Everybody happy?

It actually benefits us from an FFP perspective as it "saves" us about £3m a year in amortisation. Same if Milner signs up for another 5 years.

Getting Jimmy signed up is a bit of a problem though...

Re: City & FFP (continued)

Guys,

another thread on another forum has inspired this thought but please bear with me for a moment.

Scenario
CFG hold the contracts of all youth players on the group books.

CFG hold all the costs (coaches/ players/ etc)

CFG pay City a rental for use of there training facility.

CFG free transfer players (as required) into our squad, either for use or sale...

CFG we see a 16 year old has real potential... he comes onto Cities books and the club hold him for 2 years (meets homegrown criteria.)

The club reduce there overheads
The club get income for a facility.

Does anyone see a negative in this system.

Would it work, Would it improve our FFP standings
