No idea. Ask an arsenal fan as they are always celebrating this when others lift trophies?

Man City can achieve 'great things' in England & Europe - Khaldoon Al Mubarak

By Simon Stone
BBC Sport

Khaldoon Al Mubarak (left) appointed Pep Guardiola as Manchester City manager this year
Manchester City are embarking on a "critical new phase" after posting record turnover for 2015-16, said chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak.

City's revenue in the year to 31 May 2016 was £391.8m, an increase of 11.4%.

They made a £20.5m profit, with their wage-to-revenue ratio falling to 50%.
Khaldoon said: "We have the playing, coaching and off-field capabilities at our disposal to achieve great things in English and European football in the years ahead."
City's matchday revenue in the period rose by 21% to £52.5m, broadcasting revenue was up 19% to £161.4m, and commercial revenue grew 3% to £177.9m. The club remains debt free.
Since the financial year ended, City have spent £140m on new players, including paying Everton £47.5m for England defender John Stones.

Last season they finished fourth in the Premier League, their worst performance since 2010, but won the League Cup, and reached the Champions League semi-finals for the first time.
They have since appointed former Barcelona and Bayern Munich coach Pep Guardiola as manager, replacing Manuel Pellegrini.
Sheikh Mansour bought the club from former Thaksin Shinawatra in September 2008, and the club's turnover has risen for eight successive years.
Five years ago, the club posted losses of £194.9m in the rush to compete for major trophies.
The latest figures come from a period which included expansion of Etihad Stadium, which raised the capacity by 8,000 to 54,041 and a £265m investment in the club's parent company, City Football Group, by China Media Capital Holdings, which valued the group at $3bn.
"The 2016-17 season represents the beginning of a critical new phase in the evolution of Manchester City," said Khaldoon.

"Manchester City has now reached a level of sporting and commercial maturity that allows one to feed the other."
City are top of the Premier League but have taken only one point from their past two games.

Wonder what a 'critical phase' is?

3% commercial is pretty crap to be honest - similar sort of thing to what Arsenal do and i wonder if we've hit the wall - considering the vast array of far east suppliers we have signed up there doesn't seem to be much reward - unless it's VERY long term.

We increased the capacity and we got to the semis of the CL, so no surprises in TV money and gate money.

But increase is good and NO DEBT!!!!

We've got a renewal of our Etihad deal to come at some point - considering the yearly amounts negotiated by some clubs recently we should be in line for a major increase there. Plus there's the new TV money to come.

In all probability, we could well make a sizeable loss in the 2016/17 accounts, given our spending this summer, plus any further purchases in the January window.

If the Financial Foul Play regulations are 'strengthened' by UEFA, at any time, we'll have to dance clever to avoid being targeted again (the term "strengthened" being used euphemistically to describe us specifically being 'singled out' by unfair means or foul means).

Well Hospitality seats for the Chelsea game are at 400 quid .

No thanks .

The food is average and that price doesn't include your drinks Carl !

A football finance expert appeared on SSN this morning called, I think, Dr Dick. He said we were proably the only PL club with a bona fide business plan.

Me too Carl , but i got told tickets for the Chelsea game have gone !

Also, in light of Chelsea's recent fifteen year, £900m deal with their shirt supplier, we should be looking at reviewing our current deal

The cheeky bastard.......going on Sky and speaking positively about us. He'll be locked up in a cupboard now never to be seen again.

I'd rather that we didn't make a new deal with Nike. We haven't had one good kit since they took over.

I'd be happy with crappy kits if it meant an extra £30m a year
