He's a self proclaimed expert that was schooled by someone who actually knew what he was talking about when he came on here.
Like then, he doesn't have the backbone to admit he's wrong so he comes out with sly comments like "baffling figure"
I hope the club take him to task on this, I'm sick of hearing bitter little poltroons like him have digs at us in the press. The ill informed bollocks he's spouting is damaging, and will be reported as fact by the red tops.
Time for our lawyers to earn their money.

Ed Thompson, the FFP commentator and analyst, said: ‘It could be that they have taken out a mortgage against one year’s advance match day income. It is certainly a baffling figure.’
no they fucking won't. I've complained to the daily mail and highlighted it as a possible libel issue, I've also told them I'm going to report them to press regulation and the club and I'm in the process of drafting those two e-mails atm. that **** is going to retract that, no self proclaimed 'ffp expert' is slandering my club in print and getting away with it.willipp said:stony said:aguero93:20 said:He was baffled when he came on here too.

Thats what id love to see, our lawyers and experts to just disgrace this guy publicly for the fraud he is. He showed himself for what he is on here, but unfortuately all the outside pubic and media lap his lies up. He knows now he will be wrong about City meeting FFP, so he is now resorting to this to keep some kind of face.

Good, im glad someone with the knowledge and understanding of FFP is actually challenging this guy outside of BM. The mail obviously do not check the sources of this information and just take it as gospel.

It's more likely the Mail don't care whether he's right or not. As long as something backs up their pre-determined position on a subject they'll print it, and on many occasions they'll simply make up facts and figures to "support" their position. You can't believe a single thing you read in the Daily Mail, it has been demonstrated time and time again that they simply make shit up.

No, however if you search by author using ffplay it'll find all his posts (only 29 of them). He only posted about FFP.

Do we think the club actually care about these kind of comments and reports in the media? Surely they are aware of the media bias on this, but im presuming will just let the figures themselves do the talking rather than feel the need to publicly defend our finances against these kind of stories.
