How long before Mbappe is linked ?

I would slightly disappointed with that but at least we've got Haaland

Four legs good, two legs better.
All animals are equal but some are more equal than others.

They already spend more than anyone else.

They already have the highest wage bill in the league.

They already have Fred and McTominay.

 

[HelloCity]

Rob Harris salivating like the fawning, hypocritical dog he is.

I would gladly punch this **** in the throat. Shameless.

I’d pay to watch it.

You know the purchase price isn't "under FFP" so you can wipe £5Bn off that total straight away.

But he's only got £1.8bill. ;-)

Everything else is. :-)

 

[awest]

I expect the FFP rules to be abolished by 09.00 Saturday morning.

 

[jrb]

Not quite the £200 million bargain that Sheikh Mansour paid for Manchester City!

Still got my £50 City shares certificate.

Has the back pedalling started yet?

 

[The Stockport Iniesta]

The Qataris will inflate sponsorships like at psg, nothing to stop us matching that ;)

 

[kippaxwarrior]

Journalists back peddling faster than Italian tanks in WWII

I think it’s great and really hope the Qataris take over, it will show the world what a complete shitshow and bunch of lying bastards the media, sock puppet ex players and public have been for the last 15 years. it will also create a chasm with yank mafia, FSG will be livid. their days of coziness with the Tampa mob will be over, Arsenal, the dippers and Chavski in an unholy alliance against the “towel heads”.
plus United’s days of dominance are long gone, unless they lead a super league they will be under the UEFA microscope. You think Madrid and co are going to stand aside. We are ten years ahead of anyone else and aren’t going anywhere.

How much is our gaffer worth ?

 

[wolviedinho]

This can only be good for City. The more Middle East owners the better. United will always compete. Thank fuck the glazers stayed so long to allow city to build up our brand and win a multitude of trophies. It wont matter much in transfers, they already pay top wack in both a transfer fee and salary. FFP will keep them in check unless we start seeing them sponsored by Qatar companies on mass but the premier league will be all over them like a rash-:)

Either way, it won’t matter. It might impact us once Pep leaves but until then we can take the piss out of these hypothetical lying cunts. Always a silver lining. Oh and spare a thought for poor Liverpool hahahaha.

 

[richards30]

We have Pep. End of discussion.

United can't spend more than they did last summer which was £250m, based on turnover.

Not even with new owner rules like Bohely?

You mean twenty year contracts lol

 

[HelloCity]

I don’t think this is a bad thing for City. Suddenly 3 of the top 6 will be Arab owned when we were surrounded by US ownerships at one point.

Also if you look at PSG, how many managers have they had? A lot of cash and big players but it’s never focused like it is with us.

Another thing is that it will be harder for the media to point the finger at City about ‘Arab money’ and all that while their darling is in exactly the same boat.

 

[Tracking back]

What it does mean for us is that the hypocritical sycophants about the teams in red have the rug pulled under from them. Meaning the rascists going for our club have a problem.

You would think so.

However, the rag PR machine aka Sly Sports have got this.

This Qatari bid is wholesome and with not a whiff of state owned shenanigans. Unlike those nasty owners at MCFC and NFC.

This bid is fronted by an independent business man (Sheikh Jassim Bin Hamed Al Thani) who was educated at a military academy in England. Sly have gone to great lengths to find a black and white photo of him which makes him look conveniently like your typical average American.

Which in itself perfectly illustrates the racial bias Sly Sports harbour towards the middle East.

We're going to witness the world champions mental gymnastics from our friends in the media while this story gathers pace.

McFred - the burger that even McDonalds wouldn't touch lol

Give it at least a day
