Jype 6,398 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Citeh fine is peanuts. Am I missing something, I thought their squad is limited for the CL competition only or isn't it?Depends on how the fine is given to them. If it's just €60m from the owner's pocket which doesn't count against their FFP total it won't hurt them much but the other alternative that has been speculated is the club's CL money being reduced by €20m / season for three years and that would also be taken into account with the FFP so they would have to get really creative to pass the rules after the second monitoring period because they were already quite far away from complying even this time around.The squad limits and fines have not been given to City yet because they're going to fight UEFA so no one knows what will happen. Hell, they might still even be kicked out of the Champions League completely if they piss off UEFA enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Citeh owners transfer money to FFP account & everything is fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boshman 1,073 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Thought it could be a good idea to bump this thread back up. 13 games to go. 7 point lead. 9 wins and a couple of draws will take us there imo. I think we have plenty in our squad to manage that with that fixture list. 24th May. Sunderland at home. How will we be feeling come then?Chelsea vs BurnleyWest Ham vs ChelseaChelsea vs SouthamptonHull vs ChelseaChelsea vs StokeQPR vs ChelseaChelsea vs Man UtdArsenal vs ChelseaLeicester vs ChelseaChelsea vs PalaceChelsea vs LiverpoolWest Brom vs ChelseaChelsea vs Sunderland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viper22 2,418 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I'm calling us winning the title after winning at home to Palace.being 10pts clear.Not sure if i'd rather win the title against Liverpool or have just won the title when we face them so we can parade it in front of Slippy G's face before the match xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
