The feature article is about Dome Torrent. It hasn't aged well.

It's free and I get to play hooky from work to go pick one up, I'll take it!
 
launch activation
Ooooh, nothing quite gets me all hot and bothered like a good launch activation! I guess now we have another clue to the intern's secret identity because now we know they have to be a marketing major.

CFG injected $2.7 Billion into Man City over the last 7 years in inflated sponsorship deals to skirt FPP ($385 Million per year)

So the next time we pay $4 million for a mediocre South American talent, we have every right to complain.
 
One more thing: I understand that there is no salary cap in Europe. I don't think they should be punished for investing actual dollars in the club and not saddling the club with debt.

But if they had to inject 2.7 Billion EUROS (I was wrong above) it means there is an extra few million floating around for us in New York.

Yep - Financial Fair Play was a result of CFG going on a spending spree. Money was no object to them and it forced changing the rules by UEFA.

If CFG all of a sudden has had an epiphany to balance their books and can’t pony up an extra $5-20million for our DPs each year, then maybe they’re stretching themselves too thin and should stop buying clubs in every country.

Owning a sports team is like owning fine art, you don’t get in to it for the profit, it’s the vanity of acquisition and ownership and enjoyment of viewing. If a profit is made at the end, all the better, but it’s not guaranteed.
