The only way to get around Platini's anti-City stance

Isn't it £100m a year from the sponsorship deal with Eithad? And isn't our wage bill £100m a year? And isn't our wage bill our biggest single form of expenditure? - So basically that means our biggest form of expenditure (if the £100m sponsorship figure is to be beleived) is already covered by a legitimate, 'naturally generated' source of income!

edit: I know transfer fees right now are a bigger form of expenditure but we already know that this summer's transfer spending is a one-off.

I think it's around £10-15m a year over three years.
 
I do not think this will happen either - because our owners will act to sort it

But will people please stop syaing that it IS AGAINST EU LAWS - it is not
 
stop worrying..platini will be found dead somewhere car crash probably or an overdose of frogs legs .nobody fucks with the sheik
 
I say we assassinate the fecker... $500 billion gives you that sort of power. The guy has a sudden heart attack and nobody is the wiser.

Either that or Abu Dhabi has a quiet word with Berlusconi, Brown, Merkel et al and says to them that if the citizens of their countries want to keep driving their cars and flying their planes then they need to put the kibosh on this pronto.
 
What's to stop City having a new category of season ticket, where you're guaranteed the best seat in the house, but only one available, at a cost of £50M per season.
There is no way they could say, that isn't genuine income.

You think Real live within their means they are paying £1 million a week in wages to Trannie and Kaka and constantly need bailing out by the spanish kings bank. They have already said they dont agree with these proposals not surpisingly.

Valencia just got a £300 million bail out by the local council as they were near bankruptcy.

There is no point worrying about this, it wont work, despite what people might think its against EU laws (and yes UEFA are not a law to themselves they have to get these things rattified by EU)

Liverpool and Rags are up to their eye balls in debt so are Chelsea, Arsenal, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Real Madrid etc.

They might try and make it so the rules dont effect these sides at the moment but only a handful of teams actually make money eveyone knows this is really an attempt to attack and damage the PL as it has become so powerful and popular in the game with its inward investment.

"An attack on one of us is an attack on all of us"

Thats why this wont work at the end of the day - from a british point of view anyway. There is a real chance one of the current top 4 could drop out of the places in the next 3 seasons when this happens they will squeal like pigs you can be sure.

I'm not surprised they will fight it to the end, as the main sponsor of the league for some time is Barclays, who our owner owns a vast portion of. I'm sure a quiet word has taken place in the corridors of power.
I wouldn't worry too much, as what ever they do our owners can afford the very best advice, legal or otherwise to fight it, I'm not sure Uefa can!

That's a bit harsh,

May the fleas of a thousand camels arseholes fester on his ball bag, I wouldn't wish death on the french twat though.
