PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Anyone else think that the media generally is a special sector of industry which Sheikh Mansour is best advised to avoid.

His experience is solely within football and general rules of business are different in the media sector.
IMI isn't a new venture and it has interests in media already, mainly in the Middle East. I assume the partnership with RedBird is to add experience in UK, US and other regions.

I'm not surprised, our owner has interests in just about every sector of business.
Maybe some of his wealth is from oil but he has converted it into a massive portfolio of the spectrum of business that he can.
He is well connected at the highest level throughout the globe and it is little wonder his interest extends to media.
Perhaps those who seek to attack his AD connections should be aware that a long memory rather than a short temper is the measure of the man.

The Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund is the 4th largest on the planet at $853 billion. Mansour’s connections in business will be everywhere. He propped up Barclays in 2008 to stop it going under and made a killing from it, also has stakes in Ferrari and owned the Chrysler building in New York up until 2019. Real Madrid came cap in hand looking for finance to rebuild the Bernabau. He has the leaders of the free world on speed dial. Richard Masters and his cronies do not have this stature in the business world and politics.
 
That was the long standing joke but it translates as Union not United.
What is the matter with you lot?
If you knew anything at all about languages you would know that a one word translation from one to another is rarely one word.
Thus Etihad translates as: Unity, union, United, unified, together, togetherness, depending on context.
I make a one line jocular remark and you can’t wait to pile on with total nonsense.
Now translate SET (eng) to French.

Read the original quote in MEN from the official Mcr translator if you want the true source.
Thanks for the offer but no thanks I'll just agree to disagree and stick with the view of James Hogan of Etihad airways:

Speaking at the Manchester City press conference, James Hogan, of Etihad Airways, said the correct translation of Etihad from Arabic was 'Union'.
 
Everton in all sorts of trouble and yet we'll still be stealing their headlines no doubt


It’s really scary what’s happening to them potentially becoming insolvent in the new year if the Americans looking to buy them withdraw their interest. The Premier League don’t mind punishing them out of existence, but their buddies in the FA still want to use their ground for Euro 28.

I'm not piling on anyone, you are right in that the arabic word Etihad can be translated a number of ways, but the company name translates as Union Airways.

There is already a massively well known airline called United.

They will be looking at another 10 point deduction for breaching FFP based on the 2022/2023 accounts as well, I imagine.

Thank God we have the PL to look after the future of our community clubs.

Now that I can agree with. Fair enough.
