I don't know, but I very much doubt it. These multi club owners know how to juggle the board / supposed ownership to get round the restrictions.
They own less than 50%. Won't be a problem.
Like Maguire Antony Sancho Enzo etc and other big money signings will likely be binned very soon and most likely wont win the EPL or CL
Wha?
It's not hard at all, loads of people have been saying that Ineos's other ownerships was an issue.
Unh? What are you even going on about? You're a strange poster.
It does, but it should have been addressed years ago. The ruling bodies seemingly have no appetite to put an end to it and it’s barely mentioned in the media. Basically, it’s not going to change unless the fans openly revolt against it, and I can’t really see that happening anytime soon.
City have been sitting on these "allegations" for how long and feck all has been done?
City are in major danger of having everything stripped from them because of how blatantly bollocks it's all been.
If not having that happen to us is the moral high ground then yes please. It's like watching someone being sentenced to years in jail for fraud and going "Ugh wish I'd have done that instead of being all moral".
is there a rule or law in place by FIFA against transferring a player between clubs owned by the same group??? i mean city and red bull have been doing it for years without consequence
Yeah we're all waiting to see. They've set a precedent with the Everton ruling too. That one was done quickly because Everton co-operated. City are obstructing the investigation which is why it's taking longer.
I agree it should be as it's an easy way around FFP however it's currently not....similar to Chelsea giving players 8 year contract to usurp FFP
Might be how some think but personally I wouldn't want us to do that. I want to be proud of my club and to be able to hopefully say in a couple years when City and Chelsea have been clamped down on that we didn't resort to that.
hell i think we all want to be proud of the history of our club despite the bs that has allowed the likes of City, PSG etc to make themselves relevant bc UEFA doesn't have the balls to stop tehm yet they'll pick on fecking Everton and Forrest
Would have got more games at Utd but that ship definitely sailed when he joined City
They bought him thinking he was the new David Beckham.

You think Nielsen are faking the numbers, or what?
Apprently it’s just down to City having an abnormal amount of prime time kick offs compared to others
Also the inclusion of viewing figures from matches like the Champions League final which would have generated large numbers of viewers regardless of who was playing.
At the rate the US feeds have been showing Newcastle this season it's a matter of time before they assume the top spot.

I think that was already gone when a certain Russian oligarch purchased Chelsea. City are just the logical continuation.
And their fans just go with it and argue on their behalf. A club without any honour and self respect whatsoever. A hollow and criminal construct for hollow people.
But as long as long as the media doesn't do their job and plaster their wrongdoings left, right and centre it won't really be meaningless for them. Their efforts at sportswashing in the US are bearing fruit.
Yes, the media have been crap, but you’d have to assume that A: they don’t want to lose out on their free meals at the Etihad, and B: they’re scared of the army of lawyers.
While we’re at it. Have there ever been meaningful stories about City‘s cheating coming from English papers? To me it feels like most of it comes from other countries.
Yeah, very strange. Again, I’d say city have been threatening legal action behind the scenes.
