UEFA and PL are toothless. The revenues are officially declared and no one can do anything about it. And we are all supposed to believe that the revenues are legitimate when they can't even fill up their stadium!

They've doubled their billboard sizes to cloak the empty seats.
Ah yes, the company founded only a few years ago, which started a partnership with Man City not long aftet, that had fake employee profiles up and also has links to a cyber slavery site in Cambodia.
Totally legitimate and above board operation and their deal with City is for a fair market value, just like that crypto company 3key and that credit card one Wega that was located at a postal box in London, based in Switzerland but had inactive Manchester phone numbers as contacts.

That's so weird now I look at it, they look they've removed a few rows of seats and then added a second billboard behind. You can see the ball boys' heads in between.
Yes exactly!
That's exactly what they did. Lost about a thousand seats IIRC.
A salary cap would resolve this issue with clubs owned by countries.
Got to make sure those non-existent companies get their non-existent moneys worth
Not just a City thing, but those hoardings show different adverts in different markets. It’s very clever, and sensible. But also very dodgy.
Football is one of the biggest money laundering industries. It's like the arts industry. Who evaluates the price of a painting? What objective criterion is there to say how much a player is worth?
These Arab dictators, Russian millionaires and mobsters from all over the world use these subjective transactions to move money around for other purposes.
At least in the NBA and other American leagues there's no buying and selling of players. Just trades and waivers. I think it's a model that makes these shady transactions more difficult.

You'd think that, and I would typically agree, but all Man City will do is paying extra under the table like they've already been doing.
It's really hard to proof anything because any rich owners can set up dodgy illegal company in any place in the world and form "partnership/sponsored" with the club. The sponsorship money could be any figure they want on their book to balance the FFP.
City used to be more careful and make things believable by always set their "revenues" below us. But now they are a lot more bolder by even surpassing RM. But in the eyes of UEFA and PL all are legitimate.

Make it 116.
AgreeNice catch!
Fecking cheats can't help themselves
Fulham at it too.
they are real. they just go to a different school.
What’s a CFD?
Don't we have any property to sell to ourselves or shell companies in Monaco as sponsors. Seems like it is a PL approved method.

CFD is a contract for difference. Highly leveraged financial product that matches the movements of an underlying, e.g. a stock, for the period of the contract.
No need to buy the underlying asset but you fully participate from gains (and losses) of the stock.
It's no wonder thick people like me remain poor. Don't have a fecking clue what any of that means.
Here's their website: https://luxtradingfirm.com/. I know nothing about them, but in these photos, their heads seem very obvioulsy taken from a different picture and pasted on top of a suit: their heads have fuzz around them from different lighting and cutting them out of the other picture while the suits don't, and the middle dude's head is too big for his body:
Edit: it's not the right company actually, it should have been iux not lux.

I'm in the same boat mate.I don't understand a lot of football sponsorships because I'm simple. If we take this thing for Fulham at face value, how many people know what CFD is, and of those, how many are going to be influenced to switch to them because they're associated with Fulham? I'm sure advertising people crunch the numbers and try to determine if it's worth it but it's beyond me.
I don't fully get Snapdragon with United either. I mean I've heard of them, but I don't know if many people buy a phone because it has a particular processor in it. Folk seem to be more interested if it's an, iPhone, a Samsung, a Xiaomi and trust that they'll shove a good processor in there. If they start putting bad ones in there and people's phones are crap they'll switch to a different brand.
At least Snapdragon is consumer stuff to an extent. Sharp, Vodafone, even the betting companies make most sense to me. Stuff with wide appeal that many people will see advertised and consider buying or using.
Would a thought a CFD compnay whatever it is would be better off advertising in the Financial Times. Targeting their audience.

That’s “lux” and Fulham’s link up is “iux”?Here's their website: https://luxtradingfirm.com/.

Snapdragon are moving big time into making chips for laptops lately, the power efficient processors they have developed for mobile mean using that technology in their laptop chips results in longer battery life than traditional Inter or AMD laptops. Intel have had quite a lot of problems with their newest chips so qualcomm/snapdragon see an opportunity to eat their lunch.
Not a lot of non-techy people know or trust them compared to the traditional companies so sponsoring us is quite a clever move I think. People will recognise the name and know that it's a big company.
I agree with you about phones but if people see that a Snapdragon powered laptop has say 60% more battery life than an intel one then it will make a difference to their purchasing decision.
Disclaimer: Not every program that works on your current machine, would work on a Snapdragon laptop as it's not based on x86 architecture. Just thought I'd add that as this post as it was starting to sound like an ad.
Basically it's just a financial transaction.
But instead buying stock, you are taking a punt on whether the price of a security will go up or down. You can trade long or short, depending on whether or not you think the price will go up or down.
It does, but you have to have the infrastructure to make leagues like ours work. You couldn’t really have different leagues in different countries. Things like relegation would be a thing of the past (guaranteed value of teams is one of the focal drivers). There are far too many “professional” teams … most would have to go. A setup like the “Superleague would be near mandatory.
More than that, you would have to accept true parity. The Lakers and Cowboys are arguably as big or bigger than teams like United and Madrid. But that doesnt shield them From truly sucking and finishing dead last some seasons.

I think they've over done it with the amount of times they use the word 'REAL' on the fake company website
Crystal Palace are no better. Their sponsor is an illegal gambling firm.
Baffling how nothing is done about this. Sportswashing has ruined football forever.

Oh, I just found another shady company with almost the same name? That's hilarious!
Good lord, even Fulham and Palace are at it?
Burn football to the ground.

But why not just trade in the stock? Where does the money come from if it's not linked to a real comodity?
If City can get away with it with impunity for, however long, you can't blame other clubs trying the same trick.
It's all so grim. The decaying of this sport on the field and off it over the last 10 years has just been really sad to watch. While it brings in more money than ever.
