Is it after they paid salaries of the refs or before?

do you know what revenue means

[–] Sakarice@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Is revenue the money they took from the shell companies in the cayman Islands with 1 employee?

Enough to break my footballing heart.

[–] tarekelsakka@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Which is why football is nothing more than a farce run by corrupt people and actual states. There's no world in which City would make more than United or any other big club with a massive global fanbase even with all their wins if it wasn't for shell companies and bs sponsors.

Really is amazing how City have done this, and without breaking any laws or rules

Truly amazing

Just an absolute credit to the hardest working commercial team in football, brings a tear to my eye

Can't even buy an oil field with that smh

What plastic does to a MF

Truly the most heartwarming British football story since MK Dons.

Why 700? Their daddy shell companies could have round that up 1 billions. I mean it's just a make-believe figures all around. Don't be stingy.

I could send them an A4 paper with £300 millions written on it. It's about the same as their sponsorship revenue

the tears in this thread are incredible. i never knew so many 12-14 year olds worked in finance and accounting

[–] Sakarice@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The fact City continue to cook books whilst under investigation for 115 charges is incredible.

“Qatar Air sponsorship: 500mn. Completely arms-length contract, pinky promise!”

Queue up we getting arab money by busta rhymes

The most shocking part of the article is that Man United held the record for a month before this.

[–] DarthNihilus1@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Fraudulent institution

Is there anything WE can do to help Man City since everyone loves an underdog

[–] slinkymello@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

All above board for the plucky underdogs!!!

[–] Bigc12689@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] rickrenny@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They’re STILL cooking the books even with the 115 charges over their heads? You’ve almost got to admire it!

[–] MrAchilles@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

A true underdog story

[–] psaepf2009@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The real question to me is how much in sponsorship money did they make? And how much more was that over the 2nd place (I'd assume Man Utd) team in that category?

[–] Moistkeano@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Not surprising considering their transfer revenue for 22/23 out weighed their expenditure albeit not by much. Then the champions league win.

I enjoy the Chelsea fans and Newcastle fans commenting without a hint of irony too.

[–] FoggingEstandards@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Can I assume 700 was from a fake crypto site with no phone number and the last 12 was their tremendous fan base

[–] coolAhead@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

A club with a massive fanbase
