They’re fucking useless, aren’t they?

The "ø" has the Sam sound as "ö" in German other languages.

The nearest way to describe it is that it sounds like the "e" in "her".

SCØM.

Qualcomm are potentially the rags new shirt sponsor paying them £60 million per year, for reference City receive £67.5 million from Etihad. Another example of their dwindling pull from a commercial side of things?

Please catch up. That money is coming from down the side of Sheikh Mansours sofa.:-)

One swallow doesn’t make a summer.

No but it does make a great Meme and a player has to spend the rest of his career denying it was bird shit.

Well yeah, there are some people who think that a club's brand has nothing to do with what happens on the pitch. They're going to have a rude wake up call.

It seems to be mainly based on the New York Yankees, who managed to, as far as I can tell, create a brand of hats that were popular. But let's just say I've not seen anyone wearing a Chicago Bulls merchandise for about 20 years.

Not really when ours also covers the stadium & campus. If anything, it shows they’re still a strong brand bud. A shit brand, but a strong brand

Isn’t it more of a Dallas Cowboys business model from the 80s?

Surprised they're being offered that much, considering dross on the pitch and chaos within the club. Let's not forget Etihad gets stadium sponsor rights too, included. Are City due for a new shirt sponsor renewal/improved terms soon, considering on-field success, Haaland arriving, etc.? Sorry, haven't checked for a while.

Unbelievable Jeff.

Always this, the media cream themselves silly over the Ratface when he does one good thing after 20 odd games. Last time it was that through-ball to Rashford in the league.
