City already above Chelsea on the Deloitte list, I see.

Can anyone make sense of these figures when you factor in all the moody sponsorships ?

It does not show profitability, though.

Early exits from the CL and gate receipts far below ours, I'd have thought.
TV money ? - Should be about even.
Sponsorships & Commercials - Rather large black hole.

And rightly so.

As you must have seen, some of their sponsorship last season was deemed 'bad' and so wasn't counted towards FFP.

As a result, they failed, got a 49m EUR fine and had their CL squad size restricted by 4 for this season.

If it was as easy as getting an owner to sponsor 1bn then it would be done by both Chelsea and City.

twelve years ago, it's quite some achievement.

Had it been, then it would have taken a lot longer. Oh well - at least we beat them.

I hope FFP gets cancer. And it's children. And it's children's children

City already above Chelsea on the Deloitte list, I see.

What do you not understand? Revenue includes every form of income.

I'm just questioning the revenue source.

All that sort of thing remains "off budget", I'd say.

it's not a black hole at all though, is it? Everything has to be declared and vetted by UEFA.

I have no idea but when you think they've usurped Chelsea, who 'acquired' Abramovich

Sadly FFP wasn't around when they were assembling one of the strongest squads in world football.

FFP is not only a c**t Richard, it is totally wrong
