Why The Hell Would Anyone Want Mancini Sacked ?

[The Future's Blue]

I can't believe you just posted that.

Truly incredible.

Not incredible at all. Are you saying that the CL is essential to our model?

In fact, for anybody out there, including the wizards, is making the CL group stages essential for our current model?

Qualification for the CL is important to the club. Failure to qualify would have the manager out the door toot sweet

Most of the concern on here is about revenue and attracting players because you have CL football although we did attract players here without CL football.

No one seems to worry about winning the damn thing just doing okay and making sure we get far enough to make a decent buck. Arsenal have zero ambition to win the CL but their season is focussed entirely on qualification for a tournament they have little to no expectation of winning.

Which is an odd attitude to have and whenever they talk about Wengers excellent record in the CL - qualified 15 years on the bounce yada yada - no one ever mentions he has never actually won the bloody thing. As I said odd.

For me if you don't actually win the competition it makes little to no difference whether you go out the group stages or get knocked out later. For the club its a bit difference in terms of revenue but that ain't my problem.

It's nearly there but what I'm asking is if it is essential for us to progress from the group stages for our current model?

What I'm saying is that we can get by, and even spend a few with our current progression due to the fact that that we spent early and progressed so fast.

Progressing in the CL is a bonus at this stage but not essential to our sustainability, just as you've mentioned in regard to Arsenal.

Chelsea earned around £50m straight off the bat for winning it. Think we earned less than half of that with our group stage exit and poor results.

More important though is that from a marketing point of view the Champions League is like a gigantic billboard that the whole world sees. A good performance opens up a lot of doors commercially. I think our loss at the moment is around £100m which is well outside FFP regulations, so we need those doors now.

So, those intelligent ITKs who have everything at hand, can I have a simple answer. Is our current model (taking into account our previous few windows) sustainable without progressing from the CL?

Everybody undertsands that the CL will be essential for further growth but at present, are we alright?

Before you answer, I've heard lots of talk on here that we can spend £100 million without having to circumvent the rules. So what it is, are we currently sustainable or not?

PS. Remember now, I know fuck all.

No-one wants to answer you because it's a fucking stupid question.

Because the whole concept of accepting mediocrity and bowing out in the group stages repeatedly, I'd hazard a guess, doesn't particularly float Sheikh Mansour's boat.

Capiche?

What do you mean “sustainable”? If we were a business we’d be going down the toilet, as it is we have billionaire backing so for as long as that continues we could make £500m annual losses and still be “sustainable”. I think for now we can make a case for exemption from punishment from UEFA due to the decrease in our losses from the previous year (mainly because we held back on transfer spending), I don’t know for how much longer we could continue to demonstrate bringing these losses down without such increased income as the opportunities offered in the Champions League.

I hghly doubr that our owners would see progressing in the CL merely a bonus - i would have thought it essential

I also find it dificult to believe that our owners have not compard our dismal CL showing compared to PSG or Malaga

Mancini should and if reports are true will be given another season at least and i think most City fans including myself would want but another CL performance like last season may be a bridge too far

There is absolutely nothing about what our owners have done for us would indiecat ethey are happy to get by
