last chance saloon for FFP and City. If this attempt fails, it's gone. With the on pitch success and global appeal, top whack commercial deals can't really be argued with. (Cue some tired comment about empty seats).
Havent some of the commercial deals been the owners funding their ancilliary businesses to then have the money go to Man City via what appears to be a genuine commericial arrangement?NRS said:

Being a WUM is all some have achieved this year
Deltona isn't a Liverpool fan. However it's not WUMing to post about potential cheating, for which a ban may happen. Same with posting about us tapping up VvD before. It's just news at the time.Anyway, I guess it slightly baffles me why someone would post something we’ve already seen on a thread about City if ultimately it’s not to wind up or have a dig at us?
I know it goes on other threads, but banters great but “look, you’re still in trouble you cheating bds” isn’t. It’s a bit strange to me tbh

The allegation yesterday was that they signed a deal with Etihad for c.60 million.Eithad only paid c.8 million with the rest coming from a co directly owned by Mansour.
In reality football finances are beyond a joke so I can't see what difference it makes
As soon as Pep goes they'll go back to being in the mix with the other top 6. Until then the only way I can see anyone staying with them is if they go all out for Champions League but even then their squad is strong enough to compete. If they have a "normal" transfer window and sign 2 players their squad will be even better next year.

I guess posting it could be discussion. In the same way you get a bunch of posts saying well done on winning the league then some will highlight it might have been through "dodgy" methods (seems likely it has broken the rules, not just the spirit of them, if rumours are to be believed).
