Re: New York City

Love this bit:

Paul Swangard, managing director of the Warsaw Sports Marketing Center at the University of Oregon, said in a telephone interview that Manchester City’s involvement with MLS “further validates the strength of the American soccer market to the rest of the world.”
 
Re: New York City

Anyone find it interesting how they list Manchester City as the buyers and not Sheikh Mansour/Abu Dhabi? Would it actually be us who buy the franchise or our owners as a separate entity?

I dont get it? Is this city 2.0 or something?

I think the idea would be to use this expansion as a mix of both a place to raise future players and give them game time before they are ready for the PL, and to raise our profile for the commercial revenue by plastering our logo on everything this new team does.
