City launch MLS Franchise

[LoveCity]

Who negotiated the tie-up with the Yankees, Soriano or Glick? Whoever did it deserves tons of credit... if he can get the Yankees 'on board' imagine who else.

And will we see City x Yankees collaboration merchandise (caps, etc.)? That's a potential revenue booster considering half of the world owns Yankees merchandise.

Hopefully the Yankees hospitality tie up will have benefits here

So from a fan forum point of view will Ric throw together a sub forum for nycfc or will both clubs come under bluemoon. Will be interested to see more fans from across the pond joining the boards. I for one would like one bluemoon for both teams, any ideas?

This is all about spreading the name of Abu Dhabi as a sporting centre. Don't think it will benefit MCFC.

Are you for real ! :) or just have to say something different ? who is the owner of mcfc ?
of course it will benefit mcfc it's not a rocket science to figure out

mansour is taking City to a different level.

The Glazers will be choking on their Bagels just about now. :-)
