Everydays a school day.

Yep and his first name has something to do with magic. As Tommy Cooper used to say: "and now, for my next Tariq".

I think it could be a write down on Mendy and his final year?

Whatever the outcome, his value in the books has been wiped out.

City should sue him for the money lost.

Nothing from the BBC about City’s revenues, complying with UEFA and PL FFP regulations, our broad base of sponsors, prize money, TV money, player sales, etc, just City are majority owned by Sheikh Mansour. The BBC have basically given Tea Bag a platform to spout his shite via their website. So the masses that read the article, bar Liverpool, United, and Arsenal fan who hate us anyway, will think City are getting away with state financial doping. Good old Auntie bullsh*t!

Man City and Paris St-Germain putting European football in danger, says La Liga boss

La Liga president Javier Tebas says European football is "in danger" unless clubs such as Manchester City and Paris St-Germain can be controlled.

Its why City should give the BBC the same treatment the Rags once did.
Ban them from press conferences and treat them with utter distain on MOTD by sending out a kit man

Every player is technically carried as an asset on the balance sheet with the amount being roughly the transfer fee divided by the number of years on the contract, decreasing over the life of it. If someone gets sold for less than that value at any point (or is say, sent to prison rendering that player worthless) the difference would be a player impairment charge.

Excellently explained my friend

Doesn't have to be a sale, it's used if the actual value of a player becomes considerably and permanently less than his value in the balance sheet carried forward. The balance sheet value is reduced to his actual value. Accounting principle is lower of cost (amortised) or net realisable value.

Yeah like I said, if there's something obvious where the value needs to be reduced they'll do so, sale or otherwise. I don't believe they go in and make adjustments unless something pretty drastic happens though.

I am sure that City will be insured against any possibility of a player being unable to play.

That's my belief. If you sell a player at less than book value, you'd just record it as a loss on sale.

Just watching the rerun on Sly of the league cup final v Spurs, when we scored Tyler went oh, it was like he was having lobster in bed with 2 busty blondes and the fucking doorbell goes. Then in the final whistle his comment is Laporte could have had 2 yellow cards. Like you do for the dippers eh Martin? ****

Indeed, and even manages to blame City for "dragging out a PL investigation for years..."
What an utter twat!

The comments made in the High Court by the judge (Mrs Justice Moulder) criticised the delay but it was clear she was addressing both parties in the case. She stressed in the judgement, see paragraph 4 and 10 in the published judgement below, that both the PL and City had wanted to keep their negotiations private. Her overall tone was essentially "put up or shut up." My reading of this farce is the PL have got no evidence because they still have not produced any (at least in public) and it is not up to City to help them out.

The strangest thing about that BBC story is the claim by Tebas that it is impossible for City to have 68 per cent of revenues from commercial income because Real Madrid get only 54% and the Real Madrid brand is bigger. But City get a higher percentage because of the very high broadcast deals from winning the PL for four out of five years. And TV coverage also generates bigger sponsorship deals. It is dishonest for the BBC to report that dishonest comment without qualifying it. That comment would only make sense if Real played in the PL.
