This is fantastic news look how far we have come since just September 2008, imagine that list in 2 or 3 years time?.

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 ;-)

Suppose its similar to liking a really fit bird, but if you shag her early doors she isnt all that great, but if she teases, it becomes so much better.

:)
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.

How exactly have you come to that prediction?
