Guest LondonScottish Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 If my sources are correct an Abu Dhabi Investment group have bought (or are buying) Manchester City from the dodgy (allegedly) former Thai Prime Minister. Link to comment
TheChimp Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 That's all very hush hush. Wouldn't be surprising at all though. Link to comment

Guest SS RED Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 More money for Hughes then? Expect more Brazilians for 20 million quid. Link to comment

Jaws Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Apparenly he's at United's training ground as we speak, not City's. Link to comment
Jaws Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 You read the BBC rumours aswell obviously. Well yeh it's on there but it came up on Sky Sports News and they're normally pretty reliable. Link to comment
archiemacdougal Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Well yeh it's on there but it came up on Sky Sports News and they're normally pretty reliable. SSN saying City have bid for David Villa and Mario Gomes also. Link to comment

minijc Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Transfer thread mate.SS, as a spurs fan how gutted would you be if berba signed for Man CITY? I know it is very unlikely but surely yous would be even more gutted considering they are on a par with spurs? I can maybe see spurs putting in a cheeky bid for VIlla. Link to comment
Guest SS RED Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Berba will go to United so not concerned. Pavlychenko will hopefully fill boots as Bent will fill Keanes. Link to comment

Pavlychenko will hopefully fill boots as Bent will fill Keanes.I know that but was just wanting to know as I know for a fact I'd be pretty gutted, infact I'll compare it to Anderson leaving, people said he was going to Rangers but ended at SUnderland if he went to rangers i would have been even worse than i was at the time he left.

zig-a-zig-ah Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Sky Sports News is like the rumours page in The News Of The World these days! Link to comment
Adam Wish Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Apparently bids not in for David Villa or Mario Gomes, but transfers most likely to be Berbatov and Robinho! To hijack Man Utd AND Chelsea's main summer targets is a pretty heavy statement of intent from the new owners... Link to comment
Guest SS RED Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Man City are "gan for it". Link to comment
Guest LondonScottish Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Looks like things are going to get very tasty up Manchester with the new owners involved. I'm not sure exactly how much money Al-Fahim is willing to throw at the team, but their net worth craps all over Abramovich. Al-Fahim also says he wants Ronaldo in January and will happily pay Link to comment

TheChimp Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 I think they're worth a Hell of a lot more than that. I think the trust are managing a net worth of up to Link to comment
Guest LondonScottish Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Mummy. That is a fairly obscene amount of cash. That must be scarey for the other teams at the top of the EPL....no way can anyone compete with that. Link to comment
Guest SS RED Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Can we ask for 10,000,000 of the 200,000,000,000, that would still leave them with 199,990,000,000. Link to comment
