@SWP's back replied in a similar vein.
Could this have been City's cunning plan?
Sheik Mansour himself has not put any money into Etihad, so no sponsorship rules have been broken?

This is where I don't know where they draw the line on related parties. If as we think Mansour owns the club and the Etihad deal was subsidised by the Emir is that related as they are brothers?

Not in business terms no.

FFP is mad.

It’s stops a club owner from investing his money on buying players, as an investment, as a players value can go up as well as down.

But FFP doesn’t stop a club owner from increasing debt to their club, and taking money out of their club to Bank, spend or invest elsewhere.

F****ing crazy UEFA and cartel club b******’s!

Well they either have to prove ownership and/or get access to Etihad's accounts. Good luck with that UEFA.

He oozes pure victim.

Ooh, have you not learnt anything today, you can’t use the word victim, in any contex, as it always pertains to an incident in the late 80s

The leaked email refers to "His Excellency" not HH.

How likely is a European ban? Anyone know?

And how did PSG get away with signing two 200 million pound players!

As big a twat as Roan is.
Interesting point on the 5 years to the day of our original FFP fine when UEFA have a 5 year statute period. Have they literally just put in a referral because today was the last day they could
