Yea, what about Anjorin? That boy in few years time will be massive.

We have some very good midfielders coming through the ranks. I hope they won't go the way of McEachran.

Can you remind me of the name of this short Nigerian midfielder who was said to be the next Jay Jay cheesy . I'm trying to track him but can't even remember his name.

Read news about Chelsea closing in on a deal to sign Vecino of Inter Milan. I feel such a signing is unnecessary. Like,the midfield is the place where we need reinforcements the least. Except they're planning to sell Jorginho or Kante.
And we've got promising youngsters with huge potentials like Gilmour and Anjorin. So what gives?

The issue in breach is UEFA rules. You are right. In the commercial world, if a contract is signed for certain amount and cash is paid for that amount from the contracting party, the revenue is valid under any accounting rules.

The problem here is UEFA pulled up emails that show that Etihad only paid a fraction of those amounts while Sheikh passed the remaining balance from his personal funds through Etihad to City.

UEFA can pull issue with that and ask them to restate their accounts for FFP purposes to see if they passed the threshold. Na the Koko be that.

One thing is sure is that this could be a criminal matter (which it can be if British Govt cares enough), but all authorities know that Etihad/Abu Dhabi would not cooperate and British Govt would not risk tense relationship with a UAE Royal investing in their country, beside there is no negative tax implication to Her Majesty's Revenue from the transaction. There is however precedent for this in BAE Systems payments in the Middle East. All the payments were contractual and seem above board on paper, however British Govt intercepted some communications to find out the true intent of these payments, and fined them heavily for it.

City will be hiding under paper contracts while UEFA has rumbled the true cash movements that took place.



UEFA did not rumble through anything. They had fined City in 2014 and moved on. Then those leaks happened and they asked City to explain them, City refused to cooperate. UEFA in retribution, have now fined and banned City.

But City already knew that UEFA will do this because they were not cooperating. City treated the case with levity when UEFA were the adjudicators. They had prepared for the case with CAS. They called it CASE 2 right from the jump and called the case with UEFA CASE 1. As long as they file that suit, there would be a stay of execution of that ruling by UEFA.

Which is why I keep asking you why you are misleading some of the people here who cannot read?

You’re being disingenuous here. The bigger your brand, the easier it is to attract lucrative contracts. Everybody knows that.

United haven’t played UCL games for years but their sponsorship deal is worth more than City’s who play UCL every year and have won the league twice in the last 3 years.

You do not understand the issue and your posts give you away. For the umpteenth time, bigger brand has nothing to do with the case.

Your thinking is still wrong. It shouldn’t have been “sauce for the goose” in the first place.

If everybody is doping like City allegedly is, if everybody is buying players yaffunyaffun like Pep, you think City can win any trophy?

Which is the only reason many of you are excited.

Thank God I did not waste my words.

City did not fix their books. Their books remain the same. You cannot declare a certain amount in a contract and change it in your books later on the basis of deception. That would invite criminal authorities in UK and also deflate their revenue to where they fail FFP.

The only party that could fix their books to clean the matter is Etihad Airways. Their books may have been saying they pay City £100m whereas City books say it's £400m. Meanwhile Sheikh funds the £300m balance. The problem is that Etihad is not under UEFA or any countries' jurisdiction except Sheikh himself. They may still be carrying £100m in their books as the figure till today sef, and are not compelled to reveal it to anyone, not even in the UAE which is a monarchy, and Sheikh is the law there.

UEFA is trying to navigate outside the ambit of the law here cos the only authorities that can can compel Etihad to prove their case transactionally are UAE authorities. All they have is emails which tell a different story to what City present in their accounts. Only Etihad has the real paper trail in their books, which is the amount they recognised as liability to City for those contracts. That is the golden gun.

You can only investigate a financial crime in the UK if the injured party agrees that it has been injured. Financial injury to a party is actually the threshold for fraud. According to City directors emails, Etihad would be the injured party in this case because the email trail says they agreed a lower amount while City's books say it's a higher amount.

That is what I have been telling you. UEFA had accepted City's explanations in 2014 and their fine (City claimed the extra money from Sheikh was for salaries and wages - not transfers).

2015, some hackers gain access to in-house emails that expose that City may have been receiving more money than they admitted in 2014 (In other words, that they were buying players with the money).

UEFA ask City about it in 2018, City tell them they have no jurisdiction to ask for it. They say the evidence is inadmissible.

UEFA in revenge, ban them and fine them in 2020.

City expect the ban so they already get lawyers ready to appeal the case.

The ruling from UEFA will not come into effect whilst the case is with the CAS.

If that case takes 5 years to be resolved, City will play every UEFA CL till then. If CAS uphold the ban, then City will face it. If they don't, all the noise on this thread will be, as Shakespeare said, "much ado about nothing".
