City launch legal action against the Premier League | City win APT case (pg901)

Another fucking charlatan that can’t spell judgment correctly. On what planet is a football journalist any better qualified to evaluate a legal finding than some random down the pub? The **** is a fucking fraud.

A public service reminder that Tariq regards himself as qualified to pontificate on matters of law, finance and accounting as they affect football when his past tweets have shown more than once that he doesn't even understand what a balance sheet is. Like Stoke, he's a fucking joke.
 
Interestingly, I worked out the other week that we repaid the loan to get the stadium ready for football (£22m) around about 2014

Approximate CIty Payments so far:
2003-2010 (7 years) @£2m = £14m
2011-2024 (14 years) @£3m =£21m
Total = £36m

Overall stadium costs.
Construction costs £112m
Build for football £22m
Fit out for football £20m (paid by City)

Indeed we will have paid for the Commweath games stadium in 30 years time.
City are paying more than you have calculated
From a Foi request

The following table details the basic rent paid by MCFC for the most recent financial year, Apr 14 – Mar 15.

I think that ethos applies to literally all football journalists, the ego that they have to think themselves qualified to comment on complex legal and financial issues when they barely understand what end of the pen to use is mindblowing.
 
Disagree, the media are just trying to create a story where one doesn't exist. She wants a competitive PL which is what we have, she's seems to be saying that financial rules are needed which is something that City actual agree on despite the media (once again) trying to imply we want a free for all.

I think you've bought into the medias narrative there, although you're not alone by the looks.
I disagree. She mentions financial controls to keep the PL competitive, but where was her concern when ManUre & Chelsea spent over a decade divvying up PL titles between them?

If anything, she's inadvertently spilled the beans. Wasn't FFP & PSR meant to control rising debt in football to stop another Portsmouth from happening? Where is her concern over debt?

Nah, her concern is stopping other clubs from investing in their squads, so the Hammers don't get left behind & become relegation threatened. This is Brady wanting to drag everyone down to her level, rather than investing so WHU improve to a level where they can compete for the PL title & CL places. This is the dream for all fans of PL teams, not just annual PL survival.

Think about what she's actually saying. It's not fair if clubs like City have ambitions & put their owners money where their ambitions lie, run their clubs professionally & reap the rewards. How dare City leave WHU behind!

No wonder most Hammers fans can't stand her. Just imagine if she took over from Khaldoon & her plan for City going forward was Gollum as manager & PL survival every season? That's the level she wants everyone in the PL to be at so it's "fair".
