By the time the penny drops for Neville and those teams that play in red and bang on about history it will be too late. It is too late now, what decade does Gary Chuckle think it is? The hierarchy at City may have been pumping money into the club between 2008-2011. Do you think an astute business man like Mansour would keep chucking his wealth into a football club for zero return? It’s why the club was bought by him for £265 million and is now worth over £3 billion.

Do you think Silverlake or the Chinese investors who purchased their stakes in the club would have paid what they did if it was over inflated?

Mansour gave Silverlake and the Chinese money, it’s all a sham mate.

Exactly and this is one of the things i argue about when it comes to value of sponsorship.
Not a lot of people had heard of Etihad back then, but now their name is know all over the world.
The apparent "over the top" sponsorship deal with us was totally worth the money for the publicity and exposure they have gotten.

Frankly, I had never heard of Etihad before our takeover. I soon became aware of a new airline, competing with Emirates, whose Arab name translated as 'United'. Oh.....
 
Lol!

Interesting question:

Would anyone debate that our reputation has been damaged by the constant, unabated media onslaught since the Der Speigel leaks in 2018? And would it be any better if we had taken an aggressive, defensive stance with legal action?

I think it would be even worse, & when you look at it like that, City’s approach starts to make more sense imo.

Legal action is not the only recourse. Active reputation management can be very effective. Suppose, for example, City put out a statement showing the errors in Neville's comment (he got the figures for sponsorship, which he failed to quote, all wrong) in a slightly withering tone. He would just look stupid or lying to suit his agenda.
