I saw a link to a great article in The Times about the changes about Manchester City. Here are a couple of clips:
“I always kind of knew that 40 years of loyalty would be repaid somehow and I always knew that a day would come when we stagger everyone in football. It’ll be nice to know that every gallon of petrol a Manchester United fan buys is going into our transfer kitty.”
Dr Sulaiman Al-Fahim, the businessman behind the takeover, said that he was planning a £135 million bid for Cristiano Ronaldo during the January transfer window, although [Noel] Gallagher isn’t holding out much hope for the deal. “I like [Sulaiman] already – he’s obviously got a sick sense of humour. Because the last place in the world that Ronaldo is going is to come to us.”
