It was done tongue in cheek, but still, it's fine when you lay into a poster but when the boots on the other foot....

Fair enough, although that wasn't obvious given your recent behaviour.

Guys the reality is that the Man City way is not sustainable. What happens when the situation in Dubai deteriorates further and the Abu Dhabi Royal family decide they need to cut their investment in Man City to put more into propping up Dubai? Its going to happen.

I would never want an owner who does not run my club in a sustainable way as I dont want my club put at risk of extinction. If our current balance sheet means we can only compete at the level we are at so be it.

Hello Mr Kettle.


Hey, that's funny. Cliched, untrue and predictable, but, fu... no, hang on, it's not funny.

It's always you against the cold, cruel world isn't it?

We might disagree with Chris and attempt to give him an enjoyable cyber kicking now and again, but it has to be said that he knows his football and is a lot more knowledgeable about it than many.

Now if he could just cut down on the Prozac.......

Whilst I agree with you, it will be a bad situation for city if they walk away, you are effectively waiting for an incredibly rich oil state to go tits up for that to happen, which isn't very likely.

Our current balance sheet doesn't even allow us to compete at the level we are - we're propped up by Randy's money already.

Is the 'We' the 'clique' that regularly round on Chris.  Some of his views are a bit extreme at times but some should look at their own comments occasionally.

If you moderate some of his comments, the 'vein' of his views would support this.  As you said, more knowledgeable than many that turn to ridicule to try and make a point.

As much as the British press seem to enjoy wringing their hands at Dubai's imminent implosion, there's absolutely no chance of it 'collapsing into the sand' or disappearing into thin air, as much as some people would love to see that. In fact, Britain is in a far, far worse state financially than Dubai has ever been (since oil).  

Emirates airline just ordered $3billion worth of planes, and before that they slapped in an $11billion order for a bunch of A380 superjumbo jets. That doesn't look like the act of an emirate that's on its way out.

Now try to imagine Abu Dhabi. They are incredibly, unfathomably rich. Their sovereign wealth fund alone is estimated to be in the region of $500billion. This is just their spending money. Their vast oil reserves will last for another 100 years at least, and that's with production doubling over the next few years.

They are not going to go bust in our lifetime. Get used to it.
