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

[Matty]

Inter to be fined 6-7m (euros) according to reports in Italy. Again, the fact these rules are supposed to 'protect clubs' yet can fine them millions doesn't add up. Probably because there is no real attempt to protect anyone except the few clubs these rules truly benefit. If Dupont fails hopefully others will keep trying, there has to be a way to get such a corrupt ruleset overthrown.

Haha! What about the other Milanese c**ts?

AC Milan aren't in Europe this season so UEFA has no ability to assess their accounts or apply fines, they'll likely not be in Europe next season either.

Good point.

Good point.

Whenever they do get into Europe then their accounts for the relevant period are assessed in the same way every other clubs are.

I know that, just got giddy when I saw Inter getting punished. It'll be nice to see some more of the clubs that pushed for FFP getting fucked by it.

Yeah for a few quid no other team ever will be fined as mush as us and psg

City & FFP (continued)

To be honest I don't know why FFP a should be a big concern for you guys. You still generate a lot of revenue and teams like BvB and A.Madrid win with far less. Maybe you can't spend R.Madrid type money but not many clubs can or need to. In my opinion it is the guys running ur transfers you need to be pointing fingers at for not getting the quality signings you want or need.

Because it stops anyone else getting the chance we got. BVB won with the second highest German Revenue by some distance during a bad patch for Bayern and Atletico don't even own their players boots and are in serious danger to folding due to debt from overspending.

Neither Dortmund or Atletico have had any sort of sustained success. That's the thing with revenue, you can have success without it. You cannot have sustained success without it.

I'm totally unsurprised that the Bayern fan doesn't understand the concerns to do with a piece of legislation that entirely benefits them and yet again gives them a dominant position in the Bundesliga through off rather than on the pitch means.

 

[bry the guy]

When will the result of the case come out does anyone know?

 

[I'm no cynic but...]

What's the panic?

If FFP remains we have the 6th biggest turnover in World Football with very little chance of us ever dropping lower. The teams above us can't and wont buy everyone and teams like Atletico do better on much less.

If FFP gets thrown out and I believe it will, we can do what we like.

Either way it's nowt to worry about.

That view is too comp!acent. We will continue to have a high turnover only for as long as our squad keeps us in the limelight. Any fallback by a squad that is now verging on ageing will see commercial deals fall away just as quickly as they came, yet FFP is designed to prevent this vital rebuild from happening. We could of course encourage deals from Arabic sources but in doing so risk the shit stirring that this will bring from influential names such as Wenger.
