City are very close to a tipping point.

[fbloke]

Yes, the Sheikh 'll be paying a lifetime's salary to every blue who went toLincoln in 1998. City will singlehandedly be responsible for cancelling 3rd world debt, with the profit made from our 320,000 capacity stadium with it's £5 admission. When City win one of their 4 annual major trophies, they will give any money generated straight to underpriveledged kids around the world.

Everyone in England will be a MAnchester City fan. We will be beaming signals to space every minute with a rerun of Dickov's Wembley goal. One day that signal will be returned. Then the plan can really start. The earth is only the beginning.

Malcoln Allison's 1968 prophesy will finally be fulfulled - we will be the first club to play on Mars.

The Skeikh is Willy Wonka and MAnchester City is his Charlie. The Premier League is his great glass elevator.

And fbloke is indeed a soothsayer.

I'd hate to be round you on the day you got up on the wrong side of the bed.

We are not in a real sense so stop making an idiot of yourself..Sheikh Mansour is the one responsible for City but the guys with a say in City matters are several in Abu Dhabi. Not least the other Bani Fatima brothers.

No, really. Manchester City was bought by Abu Dhabi United Group, a company setup for the sole purpose of purchasing it, which is wholly owned by Sheikh Mansour.

There is absolutely zero evidence, reports, gossip or anything approaching this that anybody else has any sort of involvement with the club except our Sheikh, and until you can provide something apart from idle speculation, shut up.

EDIT : Oh, and it was more of an on-running joke with fbloke that we have, but thanks for wading in anyway.

I'm very close to a tipping point.

If we don't win "something" in the next three years I may go into spontaneous combustion.

It's not that I want to "win" particularly, it is just the expectation that is doing my head in.

In some ways I find it even harder to be a City fan these days.

You see these fecking ba$tards didn't think about that when they gave us hope now did they.

How selfish need they before before we just lose interest because of the pressure of being better than we have been for 30 years or more?<br /><br />-- Mon Apr 05, 2010 12:48 am --<br /><br />

I hope you appreciate my efforts btw, I now say our 'owner and the board' by way of accepting the premise that one man may well be the owner but he has others involved in the decision making. ;-)

If people didn't post such daft shite I wouldn't feel the need to correct it before the gullible kids on here believe it.

Again with the arrogance... its a public forum, you'll find 'in jokes' don't work too well.

I'm sober, level headed and fully compus mentus.

I mention that because some may think I am over stating a few things, but I fully think City are close to a tipping point in the clubs recent history.

The end result will be a club that is more than successful.

The end product will be a self-sustaining, profitable, community based club which is also a world wide brand.

We will win trophies and yet be as proud of how important our youth development is - like Barcelona.

We will draw in bigger crowds than many currently imagine because it will be based on families and young fans more than it has ever been before.

We will be the affordable club, the pride of Europe for pricing and accessibility for those with disabilities.

And we will be stronger for it.

Our players will be more than encouraged to do charity work, it will run through the very core of the club. Players will re-engage with the public.

To sign on as a City player will be the most impressive part of any players career. In doing so you become one of a family which is above mere money and trophies (but they will come).

To be a City player will be the very best and players will want to join so that they can be part of something truly special.

In fact if you choose United or Real ahead of City people will say it was because of the money.

City will be providing football with a new image, an image of being greater for the experience not just wealthier.

There will be a new, beautifully proportioned stadium sat in a glittering development beyond the dreams of any other club.

There will be a new training camp second to none in the world with access for the fans.

And all of this will be based around the very best supporter experience from the stadium to the website and ticket office.

We will win silverware and celebrate each time we win another honour, but we wont take anything for granted, we wont gloat.

All of this will happen before our very eyes, we are the lucky ones.

ditto.

What part of my post do you need to be gullible to believe?

I suppose you might need to be more positive than you feel comfortable being? (and thats not a criticism but I do sense we are built differently.) But I don't think gullible is an appropriate word.

DD it might just be that I am closer to being right than you and I reckon if thats the case you would be OK with that once it's happened?
