Man City fined £49m - Reality is only £17m as £32m suspended.
Man City restricted to 21 players in Champions League - Reality is only used 21 this year and only plan the same next year.
Man City restricted to spending £49m next year - Reality is aren't planning to spend that much anyway.

1) I didn't like the attitude of the Derby players. Played like a bunch off Dan H ardings - too good to be on the same pitch as us. Chris Martin celebrated his penalty goal with a finger to his lips at the Brighton fans. Hate that! Plus they were another team who seemed to have the officials in...
Brilliant series spin off on 5 on Easter Sunday. Catch it if you can. If you liked the film and Bad Santa, this is for you. Wonderfully shocking yet funny with star turns from Billy Bob and Martin Freeman. Treat yourselves on catchup then
watch ep 2 next week. Thank me later, I know you will.
We'll finish in the top 10 this season.
We have been in contention all season despite Gus screwing over our pre-season preparation.
Oscar is a winner as a player and manager
Oscar now has a Championship season under his belt so should know what is required.
A number of players are out of...
Watching Motd this morning and strikes me there are quite a few who have worn the stripes over the years:
Gareth Barry (sort of)
Steve Sidwell
Elliott Bennett
Bradley Johnson
Craig Noone
Glenn Murray
Abdul Razak
Steve Harper
Paul McShane
Who have I missed? Are the a couple of others that might...
Poor Solly March looked utterly out of his depth today being thrust in to the heat of a Championship battle against a typical Adkins team of cheats and thugs with bags of experience. His 15 minutes odd should have been given to Kaz whose guile, pace and control might even have earned us a...
Following a Windows update yesterday, my pc can't restart today. Any one else have the same problem? Windows Startup repair didn't fix it and says contact sytem administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance. Before I head off fo pc world or wherever, anyone any ideas beyond switch it off...
Hope they lose tonight. Sherwood says before the match 'with respect, we should beat clubs like Norwich away.' Respect? Give us a break.
Why does this make me so angry.
Because back in the day, a previous Spurs manager said of Brighton, in the same division, 'we should always beat clubs like...
Today is 5th February 2013 right?
We have just announced losses for 2012/13 season.
I quote from FFP Rules: Clubs remaining in the Championship who fail to comply will be subject to a transfer embargo in the January 2015 window until they can demonstrate that they meet the Financial Fair Play...
By selling Ashley Barnes, I seriously believe we have given up on promotion this season. He is the heartbeat of the team and we will struggle now. We should have sacrificed the £750k, kept him and reviewed in the summer. I don't think we'll go down, but that's it for now. I well remember another...
Alan Curbishley newly appointed at Fulham
Chris Ramsey newly appointed at Tottenham
Terry Connor at Ipswich
Steve Gatting at Arsenal
Charlie Oatway at Sunderland
Dean Wilkins at Reading
Joe Kinnear at Newcastle
Really I just have a few thoughts....
We really miss Rohan Ince. He may be raw, but he is a big lad who mops up the high balls in midfield, reaches tackles others can't with those long legs and could add height up front for set pieces.
The pies were poor today in WSL before the match. Rock...
Thought he looked like a classy, experienced pro today. Looked like he meant serious business as he walked to the line to come on today, with a serious, 'I'm back, don't mess with me' expression on his face. If he was a new unheard of Spanish signing, we would be drooling over the quality of his...
Regrettably I have to dispose of a few treasured posessions including the souvenir newspapers etc up to and including the FA Cup Final. I would be delighted if a club historian could use them or, if not, a fan might take them to enjoy a little reminisce. I don't want any money for them but they...
After playing bits of the standard stuff, Beatles, Stones, Led Zep I'm listening this morning to the wonderful Jazz by Ry Cooder.
I don't recall it being acclaimed when it came out in '78, but it's got such a wonderful Sunday morning lazy feel to it.
Anyone else heard it and what would you...
