Disagree he openly mocks Stefan.He seems to have become a lot smarter about a lot of things since @slbsn has been going on Talksport, despite his pathetic growling. Maybe there is some hope for him after all.
You're right and I already knew that. Doh. The employees (or most of them) at one of the spun-off companies came back onto City's books. In my defence, it was late when I posted that.
The Fordham thing for me will be or should be time barred anyway. Surely the Premier League knew of it way before 2018 (UEFA certainly did) and it's not a fraud situation it's a proper business transaction method. So we'd only need to show they knew about it and then the statute of limitations apply.Update to the Fordham issue: There was something at the back of my mind about this so I went back to check something.
Our wage bill increased by over 30% for no apparent reason from 2016 to 2017. I couldn't understand or explain this at the time, as we'd won nothing in Pep's first season, so it couldn't be performance related, but I'd take a guess that this was the Fordham payments going onto the club wage bill. That doesn't necessarily mean they weren't declared to UEFA though.
The increase was aboit £65m from 2016's £197m, so around a third, which suggests all the Fordham payments from 2013 onwards were accumulated for that increase, as about £12-13m per annum seemed to be going through Fordham.
That means Fordham was not an issue after the 2016 financial year.
He interupts him, but I dont think hes bright enough to mock Stefan in a credible way, as Stefans understanding of football finance and governance is clearly much greater than Jordans.Disagree he openly mocks Stefan.

He’s a classic bluffer.Despite one or two on this forum saying he was actually quite smart, he's always come across as limited in his understanding of many things to me and this backtracking just substantiated that. Throwing in a few big words ala Joey Barton does not make a person intelligent.
You're on a roll* this morning.No inveigling you Jim.
