We're the 11th richest club in world (based on revenue)
- Thread starter LoveCity
- Start date
One interesting detail of this new table is our position relative to that of Spurs.
The one thing they had on us was their much higher T/O -

That shows you that even before the bog numbers are in play for CL revenues etc City have overtaken Spurs (they will have a better set of accounts for this year due to CL revenues but in all likelihood that will fall back off for next season).
I would expect City to still have revenues greater than Spurs next year even with their CL cash.

This is fantastic news. Surely UEFA can't keep us out of the Champions League now that we're in the top 15 earners in Europe?
However, it shows that we're now attracting the plastics. Ah well, it had to happen some time.

I predict that even if they win it, and gain the maximum of £50m ish in income City will still have greater revenues for this season.

Sit back, enjoy the news that I guess will come out within 4 months (if not sooner) of more, massive deals with existing and new sponsors.
I can just picture Platini meeting with his FFPR team and with a Gallic shrug of the shoulders saying
"Well I dont know what more we can to do. £200m a year in sponsorships how did they manage that?"
I know it's de rigeur to think so on here, but I really don't see FFPR as being designed to stop City specifically.
I was speaking recently to someone in the sports law field who's very well connected. This person suggested that City have gone through the door before UEFA have closed it, and there's an acceptance of that fact within UEFA. Mansour, after all, bought City with the knowledge that this would happen and has had a plan all along to deal with it.
The aim of FFPR is to prevent there being another City.

Thats exactly right IMO.
The timing of City's good fortune just happened to match UEFA's desire to stop another Leeds or Portsmouth.
I have said before on BM that the decision to buy City was done with knowledge of the introduction of something like FFPR being in the pipeline.
The stressful thing for me and I suspect many other City fans is the way the club controls the info so well now.
We are awaiting news on
The Stadium expansion
The Casino Site
The Analine Site
(Additional land that we know City have bought)
The bigger leisure destination.
New kit deal (rumoured)
Stadium naming rights
ESPN partnership
Overseas developments.
And none of that is on the playing side!
Great being a blue but frustrating as well, in a good way ;-)

You know what? I don't know whether Sheikh Mansour cares about how we do on the pitch as much as we do, but he knows his business stuff and he made sure that we survived UEFA's laws right from the off.
He isn't just a pretty boy who sits on coins; he knows his stuff.
