It could have been me mate. I posted a couple of pages from Google about America, human rights and American owners in our league and said how come the press don't associate their owners with human rights too.
It's sort of escalated from there.
I'm just leaving the room quietly..:)

Not Sheikh Mansour. According to Prestwich Blue it’s Sheikh Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nayhan
Anyhow our ownership is clearly defined as per the laws of England and Wales in turns of company registration, it’s on public record and anyone can use companies house web check to verify their own curiosity or doubts,

Exactly.
Context. The bit that is missing from these stolen emails I would say.

That's cos they've got eyes like hawks and the sleuthing skills of sherlock holmes for anything negative concerning City.
Turn into blind Pews and Clouseaus when looking at certain others though.

I think it was that Don Howe fella. Sorry Don. :)
It's good to clear these things up anyway in my opinion, so many things get repeated by our press, that it muddies the waters. Possibly a deliberate tactic.

Twat lolSsh don't tell anyone.
Do you think anyone will notice ?
Possibly the must simplistic anology I could think of for a simpleton like harris, say if HRH William decides to buy villa his club and they ditch 32 red ad unethical gambling and Windsor castle Ltd take over,if villa got hacked and an email referred to if Windsor castle can’t pay their contractual obligations to villa then hm will cover to save potential brand pr damage, would hm refer to William protecting villa of her majesty protesting the image of Windsor. We as brits know hm would only refer to the queen not William, we as a society do not know naming conventions within the uae and the press have fed bullshit the uneducated masses.
Hello Brian
If I was on laptop I would have done that, but these fingers aren’t capable of such magic on a phone

Khaldoon has said repeatedly that the purchase of City was based on the need to help Abu Dhabi to diversify its economy so it is less reliant on oil. Like all the Gulf states Abu Dhabi has to re-invent itself as fossil fuels decline. The worldwide strategy is to invest in sport and leisure, tech and innovation, finance and property, and education and research sectors. The CFG is just one alement of this huge strategy. So far Sheik Mansour has made billions out of his investment in the Manchester area. He has doubled the value of his original investment in City alone (he got his initial outlay back just on selling 13 per cent to the Chinese consortium). The UK media know this full well but choose not to report it. The concept of so-called "sportswashing" is just a fabrication. I am sure the Sheikh and the rest of the key players in Abu Dhabi want to promote their region in a positive light...that's natural. But commercial reasons are the main driver.

Context, seemed shorter to type....
But yeah. This.

Or more likely someone is having to send them the copy to write as they’re seemingly to thick to work it out for themselves.

So we are owned by neither a country or a state within that country?
Perhaps someone should tell an investigative journalist where to look?
