Said on another thread the other day, our owner's actions/demeanour since 2008 (and Khaldoon's team along with him) reminds me of Theodore Roosevelt's attitude to foreign policy.. 'Speak softly and carry a big stick'..And this is why I love our owners. The only time, as far as I am aware, that we have ever said anything public is Khaldoon saying we will take the pinch but never again a few years ago. We just carry on with our business and not get into a slanging match which goes nowhere but the front pages of the media.
Just keep winning everything City and rub their fat noses in it.
Strange one that fella seeing as everyone in the world uses Oil/Petroleum for various reasons yet its used as a slur when City are concerned...I still dont fully understand why being an "oil club" is seen as such a negative thing...how is that worse than being a "toilet roll" club...what makes it worse than being a "real estate" club?
Why is "oil club" used as a slur?
I think City should choose their battles carefully. This is clearly a politically-motivated publicity stunt by Tebas so over-reacting would just help him. He is trying to deflect attention away from the fact that he is personally under investigation for corruption and the two biggest Spanish clubs are both in financial crisis. Barca are being investigated for financial fraud. The situation is also clouded by the fact that Barca and Real Madrid are already involved in a bitter battle to overthrow UEFA by introducing their own Super League.Is there any evidence that a complaint has been registered with UEFA? City should be pressing UEFA to make a statement one way or another, other than that the Club should just ignore it and it will go away. To start legal action would be a waste of time in fact he hasn't do anything that we could sue if for and anyhow it would just waste of executives' time and prolong the publicity
Just Tebas turning his chin up and looking the other way, like he did for Barcelona, until he couldn't anymore.How do RM not fall foul of La Liga ffp regs ? I mean when you think what they were paying bale lol
Hope Swiss ramble has a look into that if they haven't already
Khaldoon is a very important man to Abu Dhabi, he will have been involved in some very big dealings over the years. Compare him to ex footballers and the like that are in high places that constantly gob off about us, you can see why he takes that stance. He’s far more intelligent than them gobshites, in the long run he knows we’ll end up out on top due to the way we run our club. Everything they say is slander, as Khaldoon said himself, he deals in facts only.And this is why I love our owners. The only time, as far as I am aware, that we have ever said anything public is Khaldoon saying we will take the pinch but never again a few years ago. We just carry on with our business and not get into a slanging match which goes nowhere but the front pages of the media.
