Sandra.Goldbridge, or whatever he calls himself...
And that's not even a joke.

I suppose it's not what you do it's the way that you do it.Excellent point :)
The facade of various fairness rules giving apparently fair treatment for all clubs yet applied only when it suits the controlling clubs.
I think City are actually challenging this version of fairness by accepting a Panel composed of only PL chosen members.

Stelling’s been a bit of a snide **** about City ever since the takeover. I just can’t work out if it’s his own personal opinion or one that he’s parroting on behalf of his paymasters at Sky and Talkshite though.Without side tracking the thread the smug, smirking Stelling has gone down in my estimation.
How dare Manchester City stick up for themselves?

Well here's the thing... There was a time (not too far in distant memory) when football fans attended football matches, watched the game & had banter with fellow & opposition fans about what happened on the pitch.Is there a difference between Chelsea selling the hotels and city selling image rights to Fordham?
Both look like 'levers' to me.
Manchester City have changed this forever! Chelsea aren't skint, & can evidently afford the £Billions Bohely is happy to spend on turning his club into a Superpower.
In any other sphere of business, this would be seen as perfectly fine, but because of the FFP/PSR that UEFA/G14 & the PL have brought in to nobble City, other clubs are inadvertently being forced to pull all manner of accounting sophistry in order to remain compliant against the rules they approved purely to stop an opponent from competing with the elite cartel clubs, who had complete control & dominance over football.
Do UEFA or the PL REALLY think these constant financial battles are a good look for the beautiful game? When you step back & take a global overview of what modern football has become, it beggars belief that it's come to what we see today.
And I repeat, none of this was brought about to promote sustainability in football. It was all a mechanism to stop City, which is now crippling those who signed up to it.
Again, what about the football?

I'm not going to lie. I double-checked myself to see if the PL had released a statement but it took all of 10 seconds to bring up zero links. Maybe stupid was the wrong word but given that the poster was having a bit of a pop at me, I had a pop back.Probably because that was the deliberate implication given by a previously trusted source?
We can't all be as worldly wise as you apparently are on legal and accounting matters.
I don't blame anyone for making that assumption and I certainly wouldn't call them stupid.
Stefan often tweets with tongue firmly in cheek but granted it doesn't always look obvious. He's not really a source though and has never claimed to be - he just happens to be an expert in that particular subject matter.

He was always a snide ****... remember him loving Birmingham scoring 2 very late goals against us years ago, can't remember if both his hands were above the desk.Sterling’s been a bit of a snide **** about City ever since the takeover.

And where do their owners hail from, & what do they share in common with Todd B?and in all this time Liverpool, United and Arsenal have done no wrong, their owners should be honoured.
