Lancashire Blue said:What's wrong with "THE SUPPORTERS OF MANCHESTER CITY THANK YOU, SHEIKH MANSOUR" ?
I don't think we need digs at Trafford or subliminal messages that won't translate or be understood by him. It's the club he's bought, not the city itself, and it's the fans who are thanking him.
This could rumble on and on... At somepoint Ric, Kinky and us lot will have to make a decision. Everyone won't be happy, that's for sure, but that's the way it goes.
From my point of view, I've always wanted... 'Manchester thanks SHEIKH MANSOUR....(his full name)
It's simple, plain and straight to the point. As far as I'm concerned it's not a dig at United and to be honest i couldn't give a fig about United and/or if it was perceived that way by their fans. City have always been the Manchester club. Fact. The club has always been located in Manchester and most of it's support has always come from Manchester. It has always been associated with the City no matter where you go.(there is a theme) You need to look no further than the official Tevez banner on Deansgate, put there by the club. This is about us and 'OUR'(City) banner, not United.
For me there is only one winner and that is.
Manchester Thanks Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan (as long and as wide as we and the club can make it/have it)
PS. Ric. Can we please keep the Arabic writing in Gold. Very important. Thanks.
