Interesting, if complicated !!, article on twitter about City’s finance.

We may not have much spare cash but we will be allowed to spend what little we do have !!

Most important is this bit on complying with FFP to my mind:

Looks like we’ve successfully cut costs which is good. The one bit that stood out to me is our income to wages was only around 60%, the second best in the division, but 5 clubs are above 200% :o

I can see some more point deductions on the horizon for the likes of Stoke, Boro and Bristol.

And some people think we should be throwing the cheque book around this summer! Let's not do a Derby.
