gtf were Man City up there in the 90's <laugh>
I didn't say they were, but sky has always focused on 6. That's why half-way through a game between 2 of the other 14 it'll cut away so you can see one of the top 6 teams getting off a bus.
Part of the contract apparently.

Apart from maybe a handful of companies, literally no one on earth has a billion quid just lying around spare.

What we did is totally normal for any investment. We approached banks, government and investors. We presented them with a project. We fronted a percentage of the costs ourselves and asked them if they would loan us the rest.

They said: How will you pay us back?

We answered: our global commercial revenue is already increasing year on year, and we will add to this by building a venue rather than a just a football ground.

They said: we love the second idea, it's nice to finally meet someone thinking outside of the box. We are confident that your plan will come to fruition and we therefore trust you with our money even with extremely generous repayment terms.

This is what equity and hedge funds do every day. They loan billions of pounds to people and companies. But they don't see it as a loan like me borrowing a fiver from you to buy a sandwich (I live in London stop judging). They see it as an investment.

And the investment is paying off.

The stadium is already generating close to £100m pa in additional revenue that didn't exist until it was built.

so what you're saying is, if todd boelys hedge fund group wanted to give an interest free loan to chelsea to buy up a load of business under chelseas corporate account, thats absolutely fine to generate revenue in the future as long as its repaid in the next 1000 years?

I'll get him on the buzzer

Imagine City draw, Arsenal are winning but then Everton equalise in the last minute. Now that would be entertaining

Imagine there's no Arsenal, it's easy if you try, no hell below us, above us only... Leicester City...

... and that's how the 2015/16 season should have ended tbf... <whistle>
