Who actually owns City?

[TonyM]

Silverlake are involved in a lot of business, including Dell, VMWare, Splunk, New Zealand Rugby, RAC, Solarwinds, Waymo etc. These guys would not be involved if they thought that we were in any way dodgy behind the scenes.... I would think.

I believe Sheikh Mansours dad was passing through York and fancied watching a match. He fell in love with us after seeing 250,000 blues inside the ground.

The passion he spoke with about us and how much he'd have wanted Nicky Weaver to marry any daughter he may have sired. As a tribute to his father he bought the club and the rest is history....

He had at least 30 kids. Surely if he cared, he'd have been able to find one to marry Nicky Weaver.

True, but doesn't help in an argument ;)

Nor when I turned up to the New York stock exchange and tried to sell the club there.

Sheikh Mansour is fronting the deal for Curly Watts and Jason Manford.

I heard we were owned by hostile foreign power as part of a strategic sportswashing campaign (whatever that is).

I also heard we just a rich Sheikh's plaything that'll be sold off when he gets bored.

Personally I think it's all an elaborate front for Franny Lee's bog roll empire.

ADUG was 100% owned by Sheikh Mansour but ownership of CFG was transferred to a company called Newton Investments and Developments, which is also 100% owned by Sheikh Mansour.

NI&D owns 76% of CFG, with Silverlake owning pretty well all of the rest. CFG owns Manchester City Football Club.

You sure that’s Newton Investments and not Newton and Ridley?

Who's to say he hasn't? Nicky looked a million dollars when he last got on my train.

Newton and Ridley turned down the scum because of their inability to organise a piss up in their brewery.

He's also paying for massive floodlights over the top of the refurbed north stand in tribute to Maine Rd.
