RTG Recommends Financial Fair Play


Last month RTG reported on the likelihood that Manchester City or Chelsea would fail UEFA’s financial fair play rules (FFP) and whether UEFA would have the stomach to enforce them. Without looking at the empirical evidence RTG suspected that neither would meet FFP rules or make much effort to do so. We have found a site – www.financialfairplay.co.uk that provides detailed evidence and analysis to suggest we were correct.

Astonishingly, the assumptions made are generous to the extreme i.e. City to win the Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup and that they would continue to increase their commercial revenue as dramatically as they have done so over the last couple of years. And still, they do not come close. We strongly recommend a visit to the site.
