nothing will come of this.
the arabs will accuse uefa of being racist, they'll shit themselves and say sorry, then everything will be fine.

I imagine nothing will come of it either, in which case everyone will be doing deals that are just as dodgy. Isn't the whole point to bridge the gap between the top clubs and the smaller clubs and also to ensure clubs don't continue to increase debt (and therefore don't 'go under'). If this is the point and City don't face any action then it's going to be as unsuccessful and 'fair' as everything else UEFA has done to regulate football across Europe.

Your last sentence sums it up perfectly Tom. We all now UEFA/FIFA/FA etc dont dance to the tune of fairness and equality. They prefer money and brown envelopes.
This is just some thing to make it look like they are trying to make it fair, they have no intentions of that been achieved whatsoever.
Typical of the rulers of our game, be naive to think anything else.

Lets be honest. The biggest issue we have in the UK with stadium and shirt sponsorship deals is the way arsenal sold out for fuckall.

Nailed on. Like UEFA would not let the World's biggest teams compete in their premier competition. Goodbye TV money, goodbye sponsors, goodbye spectators.... UEFA are just going through the motions.

First year in the Champions League. Does that mean Tottenham are one of the worlds biggest clubs as well?

Man City are only going to get bigger and better. They are nothing like Spuds who seized upon everyone else being shit.

"bbc_matt Matt Slater
The New Meadowlands (home to NFL's NY Jets & Giants) is set 2 become MetLife Stadium in a deal worth £14.5m a year... so that's new venue in world's richest sport, in biggest market, & still not as good as #mcfc Etihad 'deal'. Benchmark that."
This will prove how corrupt UEFA are if they do nothing about this
