And 2014 and 2019.

Be funny as fuck if we got one of UEFA's Champions League sponsors on board and they were paying us more than UEFA get. That would boil some piss!

have we still got nissan as a partner?

In a fantasy world we asked Harris to do this interview I would ask him what questions would you ask?

Very strong words. “If” he was lying he knows he’d be made to look a fool and would be hounded out. So you’ve got to believe him. I thought if we had ANYTHING to hide he wouldn’t have worded it like that. More confident than ever now and convinced that we’ve done nothing now

If it gets down to politics our wishes will not be met I am afraid , it doesn't matter if the truth is presented and we have done nothing untoward to breach some arbitrary ruling to appease other interest groups.

The premier league clubs at least should make a stance on this and all of them refuse to participate in Europe if clubs are not allowed to participate on merit in support of one of their own.

Barca and Bayern and Real should follow suit as competition is compromised when a side that rightfully qualifies is not allowed to participate.

no problems banning a side when their fans commit violent atrocities like Liverpool in the past but this stuff just shows you how stupid human beings are and never learn from the past.

No I want the fuckers dead!!!!

Harsh!

Its even more laughable when you look at our incomes and profits compared to everyone else.

We are one of the elite clubs revenue wise right now and ive little doubt we will be number 1 in the near future yet here are UEFA telling us we cant afford to spend money like the others who earn far fucking less, have less profit and are balls deep debt.

It's like Khaldoon said when we took the pinch, in 5 years time that our business model would be proved better than those who wanted FFP implemented their way.
It is continually being proven a better business model.
I think should the AC decision be upheld, the next step for FFP will be to try and exclude certain kinds of sponsorship, basically curtailing what they will define as state sponsorship.

 

[Ban-jani]

Harsh!

Not harsh enough, death is too good for these bastards.

 

[BertTrautmann'sParachute]

Interesting that he distinguishes UEFA as an organisation from the FFP chambers. Trying to get my head round that. Is it a subtle appeal to the fans not to hold this against UEFA as a whole or merely trying to exclude his personal friends and business associates from the corruption taking place ?

I take it to be Capitalists looking after their capital investment. If your investment is tied to the success of certain institutions (and their competitions) you don't want them to fail.

 

[Gordyola]

This is going to explode!

Great statement but he’s basically just called UEFA out for lies. Which we all know they are.

I can’t see them just taking it though. Get ready blues more bollox coming our way very soon.

He called the FFP part of UEFA said there is a lot of good about the rest

Ooooh they might ban us from the European Cartel League

have we still got nissan as a partner?

Not sure, but we need to demolish the Smart garage. Abosolute eyesore.
