And that's the biggest problem with people like Harris. He states his opinion as fact and when he get challenged on it rather than engage in a conversation for him to respond he just Blocks people so other people take his opinion as fact

Moral cowardice pure and simple.

Dan Roach retweeted it and then deleted when challenged by a couple of blues

I did notice the article was in the Sport Section of the BBC website where truth and accuracy are less important than any other part and no name is given to the author.
Shades of the 'legal experts' when Magliar was in court.

TBH I’m sick and tired of Dictators, Politicians, etc. 53 years of one after another around the World looking after their self-interests at any cost, makes you……..(fill in as appropriate)

Nothing to do with Manchester City Football Club as such, bar the fact that Sheikh Mansour owns City.

But it’s already started. The bad PR.

The Daily Telehraph. Manchester City Football Club name checked.

The BBC. Manchester City Football Club named checked.

There are plenty more reports. And to come.

Manchester City owner? Bbbbbbbut we are owned by a State. We are told.

Is it actually a pile on though when someone posts absolute bollocks and rightly gets castigated for it by all and sundry?

That’s taking things a bit far, wouldn’t a kick in the balls suffice ?

It amazing that uniteds commercial revenue is so high given the 5 years of relative failure and absence of trophies.

if it helps, i dont think they will be renewing the aeroflot deal any time soon

This got me a block from Mr Harris.

I wish l had a pound for every person that Harris has blocked.

remember when politics were left out of sports lol.. not sure what the different is with our owner meeting the assad or Pm Boris or whoever meeting with the Chinese president that kills as many people.

I am being a massive shit house with this but I can’t shake this feeling that a tidal wave of public opinion will eventually push for legislation to be enacted that will see the club taken from Sheikh Mansour, or him forced to sell.

Logically I see no legal reason how this could happen but I can’t shake the feeling. Ever since Abramovich/Neville etc.

Well I will admit I’m not as well researched as you. However, it seems to me that if you are anti Iran then you are pro Saudi. Now, I’m probably adding 2 and and making 15 but do you REALLY know what the UAE Middle East and wider strategy is? If so, fair play. The Saudi vs Iran battle as well as other geo politics are incredibly complex.
All I’m doing is looking at a series of things I believe the UAE are involved in which leave a nasty taste in the mouth, that our ownership are involved in and that the desire to get rid of us and Newcastle is very strong.
I’ll say it again, if the Tories can bring in The Nationality and Immigration and Police Bills, then I fear they could use a regulator to enforce a new PL Owners bill

I am grateful there is no Emergency Act like in Canada by which the government can ride rough shod over the rights of a group of working people for protesting.

Is 'leftie' a detrimental term?

its often a good indicator of the fact that whatever the person using that term has to say about any given subject isn't worth reading
