When it’s Arab oil money.
Racist. You are Javier Tebas and I claim my £5
When it’s Arab oil money.
The plot thickens !United receiving state funding? Never! Actually, didn’t this also happen in 1965 when they received government money to build the cantilever stand in advance of the World Cup?
So with improvements for the '66 world cup that's at least three times they have benefited from public money. Does anyone know if they got anything for the euro championships in the 90's.Great post PB. I'd just take a slight issue with Gibson's money rebuilding the stadium. I assume you're referring to the post war reconstruction. Neither Gibson nor United paid a penny towards the extensive costs of rubble clearance and rebuilding. Gibson "used his influence" (we all know what that means) to successfully lobby for the costs to come out of public funds in an austerity ridden UK.
"When the Luftwaffe bombed the Old Trafford stadium in 1941, it was again Gibson who was the club's saviour, using his influence to ensure Parliament would provide funding for United." A quote from an old article I saved for any rags who deny this ever happened.
This is well worth a bump, ive just read the whole thing again for about the tenth time.

Did the deluded poster who caused that well evaluated post come back with a counter or never to be seen again on this forum?
Whatever happens with the judgement I think City should do everything they can to ensure that our "irrefutable" evidence gets into the public domain. It would be a disgrace if UEFA are allowed to block publication of the judgement. I agree with your point about Ceferin though. He is a clever operator and knows this boil has to be lanced.Depends on who makes that call, if it's Ceferin and it suits his reform agenda then he might be happy for it to be.
Well i got a response, and i think its fair to say that someone has been well and truly put in their place......

There's a bit of confusion here pal. Can you clarify that the diatribe that Shaelumstash ripped to shreds was not the words of a poster on here because there's a blue getting grief merely for bumping your OP.Well i got a response, and i think its fair to say that someone has been well and truly put in their place......
