So UEFA have banned City for breach of financial regulations. The premier league are also investigating, as it turns out that was obvious, their owner is funding through his petrodollars a so called stadium sponsorship deal of circa £67 million per annum.

Whilst VAR is doing its best to destroy the football experience for fans, City's rise through obscene amounts of cash is arguably a greater issue. Of course money helps success but FFP does at least level the playing field a little.

And before that arse Trcky chimes in, no I don't see a comparison with Derby where according to the club, the sale and leaseback of the stadium was approved by the EFL before it was done.
