At the risk of bringing it back to our club

We know for a fact that City's wage structure is heavily weighted towards incentives.
* If * this season is voided then next season City will still be in the PL. At that point I can see an argument that the 'staying up' clauses have been met, costing City £10-15m in bonuses.
Ths would be a double-whammy if broadcasters claim a refund for games that have not been played.

And let us not forget the last time that clubs 'played' broadcasters in court; ITVDigital!
