    Yeah they appealed against CAS when Uefa launched an investigation. Its been kicked out as nothing has happened yet.

    No idea what's going on at Uefa but I wouldn't expect that shower to be to follow through on anything which much conviction.

      I thought it had already been sorted that they're not getting a ban

        Probably but that's speculation from journos. Or had been deliberately leaked to press to garner reaction.

          Reading the Guardian article, there's about 30% of me that thinks that actually they might get a ban.

            City fans seem to think UEFA are running scared of their owners and don't dare punish them cos it will result in a legal battle that UEFA can't afford/will uncover too many secrets UEFA don't want heard.

            And sadly, i think that is true.

              I think the first part your post is probably true, sadly.
              Oh I don't know.

                Surely UEFA have their own in-house lawyers though. So it's not like they'd be paying a law firm an hourly rate to handle the case for them.

                  UEFA should just threaten to ban them until the legal proceedings are done, if that's the route they wish to pursue. They have the authority to do so.

                      I have feeling the "old clubs" are starting to be fed-up with City. If they tell UEFA to to do something UEFA will have to listen. The threat of a Super League outside of UEFA is always there, and the I`m not sure City will automatically be invited. The big clubs in Europe don`t need City to make a succesful Super league.

                          Love a bit of Swiss Ramble.

                          Interesting that commercial revenue is flat, and growth is pretty much all coming from broadcast revenue.

                          Think we'll have closed the gap quite bit when our results are released.
                          Oh I don't know.

                            Some snippets of our figures in there - we need to boost commercial income and match day, we are quite reliant on tv money. We also are paying almost 60% of our money on wages - we need to get that closer to 50%.

                            Re City - flat commercial so as not to draw attention but it’s the wages that amazes me.....yes it grew but I suspect it’s far higher than reported

                              Our results are out in April, but I expect commercial to be boosted substantially. As well as broadcast and prize money from winning the CL / second in the prem.
                              Oh I don't know.

                                They have another company set up that charges them as services. Accountancy obfuscation IMO.
