Isn't the rest covered by the club's income?
Well is Gill an ex-director at the rags or not ? Another poster says that he is . Can't both be right.
I always use the word "investment " as the asset (City) is worth far more than the money used to buy & cover the lossesI meant for example that the amount he used to buy the club would be counted as part of his investment but obviously isn't money that he put into the club.
They carry on as if we just went out and blew a billion in the summerThe net figures, i.e. the amount that Mansour has put into the club, are roughly: £520m into the team, plus £250m capital construction costs. People forget, when talking of one and a half bn, that City did have an income pre takeover, it just wasn't enough ! The original purchase money, of course, went to the then shareholders.
Do we have any idea on a timescale re punishments?
Seriously? that's crazy.Someone mentioned as long as 10 months away the other day!
I would have thought the way to add up our owner's investment is by adding up
Cost of original purchase
Cost of Academy
Cost of all the losses from 2008 until we broke even

Seriously? that's crazy.
I was giving a net figure into the club, thus excluding the original purchase price which went to the shareholders. Otherwise, my figures include everything you mentioned, including accumulated losses.I would have thought the way to add up our owner's investment is by adding up

Yeah but I wanted to start a conspiracy that we’re behind the tip-offFYI this has it's own thread - in General Football forum.
Indeed it could. In fact I would say 10 months could itself be optimistic. Not only does the Adjuditory Chamber have to find in their favour, but CAS has to find City guilty. To do this UEFA will have to have proof confirmed by investigatory findings - not just email leaks. Indeed the whole of City's 100 page rebuttal document will have to be itself rebutted. On top of this UEFA's due process will have to be cast iron. UEFA cannot get this wrong or City could sue them for 100s of millions of £/€.Someone mentioned as long as 10 months away the other day!
Time is a major factor that suits our rivals, at the moment it is 10 months of uncertainty among our players and the players we go after, It is 10 months of our sponsors having a negative reaction on tv and it is 10 months of City being dragged through the mud, it is has and will cost City a fortune , so yes 10 months even without your excellent appraisal is a minimum even without chargeIndeed it could.

Which is why this will go far beyond CAS and result in claims for restrictions of trade and defamation. Astronomical amounts that will force uefa to seek a compromise and slap us on the wrists. Problem is - the cartel have backed them into a corner now and want us punished unfairly or disproportionately. Major fck up by Uefa for being lent on and letting it get to this.Time is a major factor that suits our rivals, at the moment it is 10 months of uncertainty among our players and the players we go after, It is 10 months of our sponsors having a negative reaction on tv and it is 10 months of City being dragged through the mud, it is has and will cost City a fortune , so yes 10 months even without your excellent appraisal is a minimum even without charge

Being doing a lot of reading on this and came across this article, it's really long but very interesting. I haven't had the time to follow up on it to find out what happened but I assume FIFA got their way or we would all be familar with it. The gist of the story is FC Sion tried to sue UEFA for banning them from European Competition, a local court in Switzerland agreed with Sion but UEFA just ignored them. Essentially they told the Swiss FA to sanction Sion or they would get FIFA to ban all Swiss teams from playing football at any level. They duly obliged with a 36 point deduction.
Now we aren't Sion and the FA/Premier league aren't the Swiss FA but my reading of it is we won't be suing UEFA regardless of outcome.

The day after we win the league next seasonDo we have any idea on a timescale re punishments?
