The assumption behind this figure
City placed 12th (their 5-year pre-2008 average) in every season from 2009/10 to 2017/18, with interest at the 11.81% Burnley v Everton Precedent rate, compounded yearly to 1 October 2026. Every club below City's placed position moves up one place in each affected season, and inherits the prize money and Champions League or Europa places that come with it.
