Sadly, for the sake of this particular argument, the US Government does not own any British football clubs. The UAE does, albeit by proxy. There are plenty of things we can criticise American club owners and sponsors for - Standard Chartered being a case in point - but holding them to account for US foreign policy isn’t really a starter IMO. It’d be like pinning illegal whaling operations by the Japanese government on Chelsea, because they’re sponsored by Yokohama Tyres
Sheikh Mansour doesn't even have a seat on the UAE's executive council so I can't see how he's instrumental in shaping the UAE's polices.
If John Henry was Vice President I’d tend to agree.The fact that Sheikh Mansour wields influence and can affect policy in Abu Dhabi is not the same as City being owned by a foreign country. If you use that logic then John Henry is a good friend of Donald Trump and so Liverpool are owned by the USA.
NoI'm City Rabin from Twitter
Now that is a conversation worth having but aside from Martin they are ignoring itWe aint owned by a country Fact!
Or is it like that w@nker Gill who still on the board at the scum and at uefa plus the fa where HE CAN and HAS made rules/laws to benefit his fcuking scum club! Just like Samuel put in black white! Gill influencing the laws/rule from his ivory tower! He is total scum.
Could you please provide any tangible evidence that Manchester City is owned by a country? Especially one made up of several sovereign states such as the UAE. There’s a clue there mate...Sadly, for the sake of this particular argument, the US Government does not own any British football clubs. The UAE does, albeit by proxy.

So by 2021 at the rate he goes through them?If John Henry was Vice President I’d tend to agree.
Is he Deputy Prime Minister in this scenario?So if Philip Hammond bought say villa, would the british government own them?
As he influences and affects UK policy.
I think you need to re read his post as the whoosh is definitely not yours.Ha ha I think I've gone in over my head with these haven't I!
A big whoosh from everyone would be very welcoming..:)
Thanks.
There is so much shite about he can't cover it at allwhy didn't KAM address the ownership during his speech, he could of said we are not owned by a country or state we are owned by Mansour bin Zayed bin Sultan bin Zayed bin Khalifa Al Nahyan
