Think you’ve answered your own question Keno

Investigation is on going innit

Spend before they perhaps are not allowed to but I really can’t see that happening with the EPL

And Pep had a tantrum at the end of the season, about wanting a smaller squad.

Their net transfer spend over the last few years is one of the lowest in the Premier league, so they have plenty of PSR headroom.

They haven't been found guilty of anything, so are free to spend just like any other club.

The charges allege that the club failed to provide accurate financial information, which is essential for ensuring fair competition within the league.

It is not about spend specifically, it is about financial transparency and accounting practices.

No it isn't.

According to Football365 data (summers 2020–present) Man City rank 6th worst in net spend at –£321.8 million.

Their FFP charges are nothing to do with current finances.

Man City get away with it as their revenues have been so high in recent years. 23/24 Man City £719million Aston Villa £320million Bournemouth £160million. It gives them a lot of wiggle room to buy the best on top wages whenever they need to.

Sure. I was simply challenging Marshall's false assertion that their net transfer spend over the last few years is one of the lowest in the Premier league.

Why not? They’re not banned from the transfer market within the current rules. Their income is whatever it is now. The investigation covers a different period and is ongoing.

They sell a remarkable amount. Something like £500M of youth talent sold in recent years. They also have a very creative account.
Most of the charges against Man City are not regarding transfers. Most relate to the tapping up and payments to players and managers.
Chelsea are the biggest NET spenders. Man Utd 2nd, Spurs are 3rd and Arsenal are 4th. Newcastle are fifth and Man City sixth. Surprisingly West Ham are 7th, only £10M behind Man City.

I don't know the figures (to get that out the way) but only the last 3 years would be relevant wouldn't they? Perhaps he was referring to that as it's a rolling 3 years for PSR?

If they are still high for Man City then fair enough.

Over the last 3 years they are 4th. Man Utd are 1st followed in 2nd by Chelsea and third are Spurs.

I don’t know the rules, why’s or wherefores on this but I think we can safely say that for these important clubs the rules are utterly irrelevant. Talk of investigations, charges is just bilge pumped out to mug the plebs off by making it look is if everything is fair and above board.

Which it isn’t. If they couldn’t do anything with Leicester and their 13 month annual accounts etc they won’t dare touch Man City, Chelsea and co. There’s more chance if Nelson getting his eye back.

I wonder who is doing this ‘investigation’ anyway? The Invisible man, Rab C Nesbitt or the Teletubbies?

Man U, Spurs, Chelsea & Man City were somewhere between pretty poor and utterly woeful this season.

Yet three of them still somehow qualified for next seasons’s Champs League cash bonanza and two of them have lucked out twice, due to the ridiculous qualifying criteria for this Club World Cup nonsense.

Whilst there must be some serious questions being asked of their recruitment people, they’ve still managed to reap ridiculous financial reward for spaffing billions stockpiling ill-considered dross.

Meanwhile, we spend more in one summer, than we probably have in our recent history, to dish up the worst home record in our recent history.

Game hasn’t just gone, it’s disappeared into the feckin’ ether, looking back over its shoulder to wiggle its middle finger whilst giggling hysterically.

you are right there, they would probably be right near the top, but they have sold well. For instance £47million for Sterling .

Thanks to FIFA they now have a chance it make a further £100M in the Club World Cup competition to make them even more dominant and the Premier League even less competitive.

You know what net means don't you?

They are 6th worst over the last 5 years including sales.
