sheik - will we ever see him/

[joe salford]

i know it has been asked before, but when, or if, will we ever get to meet and thank the guy?
Probably due to security issues, if he was ever to come to COMs it would be hush hush, but i can imagine the absolute furore if was to happen.
At the minute he is like some fairy godfather who lives in a land far far away. The fact he has'nt been yet kind of reinforces others' arguments that he doesnt give a fuck or even really know MCFC and it is just another Arab investment. People (rags generally) say that because he aint been he doesnt care so when he sells us on we will be fucked blah blah blah.
I just wish he would come and see for himself exactly what impact he has had, get to know MCFC and truly become a blue.

There must be some plan in place for a visit.

The stadium will have to be pinned even more to Beswick's Holy Ground, 'cos the crowd will shake it off it's footings if he ever comes.

Well he'd better hurry up and make his mind up - there's going to be no seasoncards left at this rate and I doubt he has any loyalty points to get a ticket for the big games.

You'll know if he's here. The stewards will be replaced by six foot tall, black suited Arabic men with sunglasses and earpieces.

Just thought that would be fantastic - no stewards in yellow bibs just men in black suits with sunglasses. Anyone who plays up gets whipped out of the ground and never seen again. Strangely the foundations of the new shopping complex are only filled with concrete at the end of each game. And the concourses after the derby game only have blues walking along them........

for sure at CoMS for the Champions League final 2013 - City v Real Madrid

FFS..You think he will just pop in to the office and say that he´s off to Manchester because Cook did sort him out with two tickets :D
That said he will come over in due time, perhaps when we got something to show for the money.

He do have some other things to attend as well..I´ll list the major ones below.

Board Member and Director of Abu Dhabi Investment Authority.
Chairman of the International Petroleum Investment Company. In this role he also manages the Falah Fund and controls Aabar.
Chairman of the Emirates Investment Authority.
Minister of Presidential Affairs for President Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan in the United Arab Emirates Federal Cabinet
Chairman of the First Gulf Bank.
Member of Board of Trustees of the Zayed Charitable Humanitarian Foundation
Chairman of the Emirates Horse Racing Authority

Be for the time being content that Abu Dhabi in their wisdom have placed the very competent and able Khaldoon as chairman, he normally just handles multi-billion projects of vital importance to Abu Dhabi.


Show me the silverware...

Dave those first 2 parragraphs had me in stiches, I could imagine someone on the phone at coms saying " i've told you twice you donnt have enough points now fuck off"

However it would be a crazy day if ever he came. ( rags at home)

 

[Didsbury Dave]

I've been told he has been already. Last season I believe. I can't remember the game, but that's what the players were told.

 

[Silvercloud]

I doubt they would be able to keep a visit secret. There would have to be extra match day cops, probably special branch as well.

Never heard about that, you sure it wasn´t Khaldoon? He visited the changing room after the last home game and conveyed the personal greetings from Sheikh Mansour
