Were we not told that the forced Abramovich sale wrote off £1.5bn of loans (from him)? That money may have been injected before ffp but, if it was still on the book as a liability at point of sale, surely that is very much a major influence on whether they pass the rules now..?Do we know if these are minor ??
Joleon shouldn’t be allowed out without his carer to do his thinking and speaking for him.Wow, I've just got next week's Radio Times, the Kick Off to the new season they say. Anyway they've asked 6 pundits for their predictions:
Jamie Redknapp- can't see past Manchester City.
Michael Dawson- I don't see anyone getting close to Manchester City
Troy Deeney- Manchester City will win the league
Owen Hargreaves- Manchester City, then United will be back, Liverpool are right there and Arsenal.
Joleon Lescott- I'll say Arsenal. They've strengthened and the mental fatigue of last season's Treble could take a toll on City, even though they're still the team to beat.
Sam Matterface- Manchester City look a little light in terms of acquisitions but never bet against Pep Guardiola.
So the only one going against the trend and against us is our own Joleon!! Ok still saying we're the team to beat but ..... Joleon, Joleon, Joleon!!! ;-)

No, but writing it off makes it owner investment.The part of the loans that are relevant to FFP will have been considered for FFP (ignoring the inaccurate reporting thing, as we don't know what that related to).
The part that are irrelevant to FFP (age, infrastructure) don't matter at all.
There's a difference between accounts for different purposes - FFP, balance sheet, Profit&loss are all worked out on a different basis.
Having a whacking great loan outstanding does not matter to FFP.
No, but writing it off makes it owner investment.
Isn't it for not including agent fees over multiple seasons (in effect, paying them under the table?).Do we know if these are minor ??
City have requested officially for Prince Andrew to independently investigate the claims due his vast experience with them.Do we know if these are minor ??
