We need a Sheikh - Fred Done

[Blue Mist]

The difference between Done and Conn is striking. Done accepts and even congratulates the sheikh on what he has done at City and is open in the fact that if the Rags want to ever be 'big' again they would have to do the same.
Meanwhile on planet miserable bastard a so called Blue just slags the Sheikh and City.

what Fred the Red and the other 650 million worldwide fans forget is that a sheikh, at this point, is no use to them under FPP rules and regs because they would not be able to invest the kind of cash that Sheikh Mansour was able to before FPP was introduced . And of course they voted to bring in a type of FPP into the PL hmm thats kind of backfired on them as well !

At least he acknowledges that Sheikh Mansour is doing great things for Manchester as a city, not just the club. It's something constantly overlooked in our development.

Well done to Fred the red,in one line he has put tp bed the idea many rags had of our good Sheikh Mansour pulling out,in fact he has embelished the idea that we have better owners than them..

Fred the red the City ledge.

So long as it was done before the "brand" dropped its value they could. They still sell a lot of shirts and arr known worldwide. We need malc to stay in charge for a good few years yet!

@mikekeeganmen: Couldn't include all of Fred Done's quotes but he spoke at length about how impressed he was by Sheikh Mansour. Will tweet. #mcfc

@mikekeeganmen: Fred: "Sheikh Mansour is pouring money into a 15-20 year vision in east M/C. The youth policy will come through."

@mikekeeganmen: FD: "He's (SM) put a hotel in for the players They've got 13 pitches varying in grass length depending on who they are playing."

@mikekeeganmen: FD: "I'm very impressed with what SM has put togetther there. He's done it in double- quick time & he's put his money where his mouth is."

The thing is he hasn't opened his mouth at all! He's just got on with it.

Bloody hell. No rose tinted glasses there.

The great thing for us and the bad thing for Fred and the rags is it isn't going to happen.They were one of the main instigators of FFP and now,even if they somehow get someone to give them a couple of hundred million just for new players, they probably can't spend it as it will mean they would fail the rules they helped create.Delicious irony.

Out of their team they probably have five quality players.De Gea,Rooney,Van Persie,Mata and Jannusi or whatever his name is and as a young player he may or may not make it,but he looks quality.So to get their first eleven up to standard and competing at the top level again they need SIX top players.At 35-40 million a throw that will be topping 200 million.I don't think even if FFP wasn't here they could afford it.

Our squad is so strong now it only needs tweaking here and there and we will soon hopefully have some quality home grown players coming through too.

Success breeds success and the more we win,the higher our stock rises,the more fans we will attract worldwide and the more revenue we will generate.Just like the situation we found ourselves in when we eventually got ourselves back into the premier league after the party had been going on for some time,the rags could very quickly find themselves cast adrift for years,if not for ever.What a fantastic thought!
