City want access to the PL database that provides parameters for FMV. Just saying that the discipline of media/sponsorship valuation and audit is robust. Therefore if someone tries to inflate value it can be challenged.

A Love Letter to supporters that kept the club alive. The fragile foundations built from Brady and the FIGHT, with Dick & Martin Perry & Quentin’s cash - ultimately led to Tony Bloom’s extraordinary foresight & vision. Great for those of us that were there and lived it - even better for those...
