I've never understood this either. Biggest legit loophole there is because neither uefa or pl can deal with debt because it will hit the old guard. Rather than all the faff with sponsorship and 'fair values' we could have just been 'loaned' a billion in perpetuity like abramnovitch and just recently the Leicester owner has done.And this is why I am baffled, why would we need to supposedly inflate sponsorship when we could have just asked the owner for a loan of £100 million.
You mean we'll become the NBA? LOL...City have become one of the most profitable clubs in the world. Even if what they did was wrong (it wasn't) isn't that a surefire sign that the rules are completely fucked up? In what world would a league institute rules that make it impossible for teams to increase their profits, build their brands and attract world-class talent to their league? Football existed for decades without these FFP rules that they instituted specifically to stop City from crashing their old-boys club. If this is what they're going to do they should be made to enforce these rules for every other team, make them all stop spending big money and drive every talented player out of the PL. Hell, bring them all to MLS and let it become the biggest league in the world. Just watch as we completely change the game once we realize there is more money to be maid. We'll have commercial breaks every 20 minutes, no relegation so teams will sandbag to maximize profits, playoffs after the schedule is played with almost every team qualifying, unlimited subs w/ re-entry and timeouts.
Loans still count as owner investment, FFP allows for a certain level of owner investment but it’s only about £30m per season, or over three seasons - can’t remember whichAnd this is why I am baffled, why would we need to supposedly inflate sponsorship when we could have just asked the owner for a loan of £100 million.
Now now you two - can’t you play fucking draughts or something.You'll have a job lol.
A process that would ignore "irrefutable evidence" would be faulty...No. That is an appeal of the verdict. To get to court we would have to allege faulty process.
Imagine starting a business but you can’t invest your own money. This rule is exclusive to man city only.Im really confused with how much an owner can put into a club, it;s the situation at Chelsea that is throwing me, how can RA have loaned them in the region of £1.5Billion and then it just be written off?
Who's this Guardialo bloke?Like a few on here, I stopped watching pressers, ‘pundits’, listening to the radio or any opinion pieces anywhere, be it print or media, years ago.
Was going into a meeting today and decided to catch a bit of the presser on City’s site. I’m glad I made that decision.
If he can come out swinging for the club dearest to my heart, I see no reason why I shouldn’t back the man through all highs and lows.
Thank you Mr Josep Guardialo!
