How do you make that out? Most of our losses relate to player wages and amortisation.S04 said:Much of our "loss" will simply not count because it´s infrastructur, training facilities, stadium works, youth/academy related i.e "Good for the game"
What about Visa or Mastercard sponsoring a competition and, as part of the terms, exclude people from using the other to buy tickets. That's essentially bribery to me.fbloke said:I seriously doubt if any sponsorship deal with a sports team could ever be construed as a bribe.

doggiesin08 said:Sorry if this has already been covered, but with Sheikh Mansour being the director of the Al-Jazira club in the UAE (so not having to worry about UEFA regulations), why could he not authorise Al-Jazira to sell a player to Manchester City for 1million and then sell back to Al-Jazira the next transfer period for 100million to balance the City books?
Is this similar to sponsorship details where UEFA can determine what is a players fair market value? I don't see how UEFA could have this power for assessing individual player transfers?
