Financial might provided by the Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund? Stopped reading at that point.
Good decision.

"City’s financial dominance, buttressed not by an absent billionaire but by an entire state, "

"City know that they’ll never be as big as United or as loved as Liverpool or as cool as Paris Saint-Germain."

"at some point the City era will come to an end. And yet the forces that helped them to flourish in the first place – weak regulation, a lack of oversight, the moral desertion that allows repressive states to own cherished community assets – will not."

Edit: Written by Jonathan Liew, the Spurs fan BTW.

Pissed me right off reading that article so I found this https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...itys-restored-aura-makes-patsies-of-opponents

his views are obviously not his own.

The forces that helped us flourish were what the cartel put in place in order to try and guarantee themselves perpetual success. This always gets overlooked when these nonces bemoan our present standing in the game - and try and evaluate how it came to pass.

The weak regulation, the lack of oversight and the moral desertion all flowed from the establishment clubs creating that landscape for their own ends. Anyone who doesn’t appreciate this is too ignorant and/or too thick to be taken seriously. Or maybe he does, but elects to ignore it, which makes him dishonest.

Either way he’s an embarrassing ****.

As to this:
"City know that they’ll never be as big as United or as loved as Liverpool or as cool as Paris Saint-Germain."
1. As big as united - don’t give a flying fuck
2. As loved as Liverpool - seriously?
3 As cool as PSG - not sure what metric he’s applied here

Embarrassing ****.
