I think we did, but I haven’t been able to see how it benefits us.

Loads of Man City fans on Twitter, saying ‘it literally benefits most other clubs’ without any of them being able to say how. So I asked Grok, which came up with Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Man Utd, Everton and Brighton. So that’s good then.

It is being reported by some that the massively inflated Etihad sponsorship is allowable income, is this a fair interpretation of the agreement? If so it somewhat opens the floodgates doesn't it?

My guess is the wording of the agreement is designed to stop the floodgates from opening, however any historic breaches will not be punished. Okay for man city as their status now justifies the biggest deals, not so good if you’re lower down the food chain but have wealthy owners…
