    Amazing redemption arc, honestly. A rise that inspires and deserves a movie.

    As we speak, Man City lawyers are trying to find secure ways to bribe their way out of those 115 charges; heck, they will warn the UK government that they might pull out their investment out of country. Those 115 charges are old. They still do shady stuff like Haaland transfer money.

    Can’t believe people are doubting them. One of their sponsors has a business address of an empty, state of the art warehouse outside London. Haters will say their sponsorships aren’t real

    I’m sorry but you’ll never be able to convince me that City legitimately overtook United as a financial giant in the span of a decade. Obviously they’ve grown in recent years and will continue to do so but to go from where they were in 2008 to now in such a quick amount of time? I’m not buying that

      Liverpool overtook Everton in one decade back in the 60s-70s. Shankly as the recruiter and Sawyer as the man handling the finances were enough.

      Nowadays, Man City with Pep as the recruiter and the City Group handling the finances overtook United.

    Does it count as profit if you gave yourself the money? Gotta love city’s Ouroboros finances.

    It’s amazing how you can boost revenues when you have 9 companies your owner that belong to the state, where your owners state investment vehicle Mubadala anv 9 of their companies sponsor the state football team to the tune if £250 million a year.

    What’s even more interesting is the Owner and also the chairman of the club are on the Board of Mubadala, and can you guess who’s on the board of all 9 of those companies. That’s right the Chairman of Man City.

    Amazing success story.
