Stadium costs are not included in FFP. The losses UEFA investigated were to do with stadium costs. UEFA were happy with this and didn’t pursue further.

How are we guilty of breaching FFP for something that doesn’t fall under FFP?

"You’re another one who is spouting rubbish and trying to pass it off as fact."

The irony.

Not ironic at all. You just don’t know what you’re talking about.

Now this is ironic

Of course you need it explaining

The irony is that you are telling me I'm talking rubbish when in actual fact it's you!

Feel free to counter my points with something that has a little more basis than: 'You're talking rubbish'.

I think it kills City fans that no other fan takes their achievements seriously.

How can anyone take them seriously when their club history is there for all to see?

It's actually worse than I posted.

I just got bored.

I do agree though. They just won the lottery and that's it.

It’s been explained numerous times on this site in the past. It’s tiresome having to go over the same misguided comments again and again.

Plus it won’t change your opinion.

Nope, you won't change opinions with biased articles written by Man City fans in a state of self-protective delusion, true

I didn’t write this article.

You have spouted rubbish though.

See.
Liverpool, knows how to dodge ffp.
They are experts at providing some vague projects to uefa as a cover for over spending.
City should learn a thing or two from Liverpool.

It's tiresome trying to have a conversation or debate with someone when you constantly have to explain to them what it going on in said discussion because they are struggling to comprehend... It's not much of a debate anyway really though when all they can come up with are Karl Pilkington style responses like: 'That's rubbish' or 'You're talkin' rubbish'.

posted on 11/7/19

We’re not having a debate. You have voiced your opinion. I’ve said that your opinion is rubbish.

You’ve provided no proof or anything of substance. Your contributions are getting the response they deserve.

You can have the last word. I’ve wasted enough time on you.

You've contributed absolutely nothing to this discussion other than irony in telling people that they are talking rubbish but talking rubbish yourself about Liverpool.

Everyone knows you lot have wormed your way around FFP regulations and gotten off extremely lightly. In the corrupt world we live in today and considering how corrupt we know FIFA/UEFA tend to be (It has been proven) it's no surprise to put 2+2 together and come out with 4.

We all know that Man City are not of the size/scale, do not have the fan base or self-sustaining revenues to sustain their current model WHATSOEVER without their dodgy sponsorships and the Sheikh's cash reserves but you keep lying to yourself if you somehow think differently.

Continue in your state of self-protective delusion, it makes no difference to any of us

P.S. You literally didn't make one single valid point against anything I wrote so -> GG, WP, you lose.

Puma just splashed £65m on City.
Maybe you can tell Leterme about how dodgy this deal is so your desire to see City punished is fulfilled.

On a side note, where was this outrage in 2014 when we were punished with a £49m fine plus squad limitation?

Do you think exclusion from the CL for one season will affect us?

I'm glad no one at the Emirates Stadium is willing to take oil money.

Boris

Despite how things are I'm glad we refused Roman and never courted a monarch

But imagine sticking to principles and values of the club only to sell to Kroenke

City are celebrating their 125th Birthday this year and you've chosen to highlight the 5 worst years.

For balance, try highlighting the last 5 years.

City will never be held in the same breath as proper clubs like United, Arsenal and even the Scousers no matter how much you win.

Those three clubs earned their success and grafted. You lot have a wealthy Arab bankrolling you. It's like playing manopoly with all the bankers money at the start.

Odd comment from a man who’s dad bought him a house.

The Scousification of SE85 rolls on unabated.
